art, objects and individual perspectives
art and objects bring a particular perspective to an interior. this july 2020 archive brings together seven artists, photographers and design references whose work offered distinct approaches to colour, composition and form.
our art selection service in melbourne considers the relationship between a work, its setting and the people who live with it. we also collaborate with artists on commissioned pieces.
kate mayes
botanical shapes and layered colour distinguish the kate mayes works in this archive. their movement invites a quieter surrounding palette, allowing the painting to remain a deliberate focal point rather than a decorative afterthought.
dinosaur designs
the dinosaur designs selection explores colour through rounded vessels and asymmetric forms. a small collection can create rhythm across a shelf or table, with space between pieces allowing their silhouettes and surface to be appreciated.
beth kennedy
pattern and colour meet in the beth kennedy reference. the relationship between translucent washes and more defined areas offers a useful starting point for selecting supporting textiles, without reproducing every colour in the artwork throughout the room.
andrew vukosav
andrew vukosav’s aerial photography introduces a wider view of the australian landscape. large photographic works need consideration of viewing distance, wall proportion and framing, alongside the architecture and light of their setting.
angus martin
fragmented shapes and contrasting colour give the angus martin selection its character. choosing art is a personal process: a work’s composition and scale matter, but so does the client’s connection with it.
marmoset found
the marmoset found objects provide a different scale of expression through glass and ceramics. a vessel can link a material palette or introduce an unexpected note, with restraint allowing individual pieces to hold their own.
james geer
the james geer reference brings photography into the conversation. imagery, framing and placement can be considered together, rather than selected independently of the room.
through interior decoration and styling, art, furniture and objects are brought into a cohesive arrangement. these archive references are a starting point for looking, rather than a statement of current ranges or availability.
