This gorgeous country cottage dates back to the 1860’s. Updated by previous owners to an ultra modern state that was jarring with its traditional surrounds, this old homestead needed some of its charm back. In keeping with the natural surrounds of the area, a rich colour palette of green and blue hues was used. The bold colour choices made the individual spaces feel grand where white previously felt lifeless. Picture rails were added in every room to create ease with displaying artwork. A sense of mood and charm was captured in each room, with colour and texture playing a large part in the design. Luxurious linens, woolen throws and colourful, patterned throw cushions were supplemented by delicate light fittings, rugged timbers and natural sisal floor coverings. This country home has found it’s soul.

“Just had my world coloured by Hè Hè Design. We have moved from white in every room to rich deep colours accented by white trims and ceilings. Love every room. Erin is amazing.”— ANGELA K.

About the
Professional

Hè Hè Design is the Interior Design studio of Erin Fairmaid, based in Melbourne, Australia

Hè Hè is the Dutch expression for 'a sigh of relief’, often said when putting one’s feet up at the end of a long day. Though, it is more than an expression to me; it’s a connection to my Dutch heritage, a part of me which I hold very dear to my heart.

I love creating homes that are cosy, inspiring, comfortable and lived in. Homes that leave a lasting, emotional connection due to a particular element, texture or colour.  It’s the emotional connectedness to a home that I’m looking to achieve through all of my designs.  If someone tells me that they feel something because of what we have created together, I have successfully done my job!   And there is simply nothing more important to me than ensuring my clients have a home that they can retreat to at the end of the day to find complete happiness and forget the worries of the world.

I love creating wholesome relationships with each of my clients and getting to know them on a more personal level. While Interior Design is an incredibly valuable and seriously considered process, it is also a time to have a bit of fun and release your inner most creative thoughts, push the boundaries, have a laugh and trust that together we can create your very own version of Hè Hè.
