Read MoreBefore we got our hands on this little ugly duckling of a house, she could only dream of squeezing a second bathroom into her 114sqm floor plan.

Episode 2 takes the original dining and sun room turning them into a master suite retreat! We also add a mini extension off the side of the house giving us a few extra metres to build an exclusive little deck and ensuite with huge floor-to-ceiling window!

Read MoreRenovating without a clear vision is like plonking yourself down in the swivel chair of a new hairdresser and saying, ‘Do whatever you want.’ Chances are you’ll spend a fortune, be forced to live with something you don’t want (bangs, anyone?) and it will all end in tears.
We start every renovation by creating a vision board. A vision board is just a glorified mood board, right? Wrong! It’s much more than that.

So, when I suggested to Bon that we invite our Reno School students over to her #moderncoastalbarn for a look-see, she hesitated …. And then jumped at the idea.
We had an overwhelming response and could hardly believe our eyes when we scanned the guest list to find we had students flying in from New Zealand, Perth, Melbourne, Far North Queensland, and …. even Singapore!

Read MoreMany of us are apprehensive about adding ethnic furniture to our space, for fear of things ending up too ‘boho’.
