Need help with your Christmas style? You can tell a lot about a person from their Christmas personality… I am what I like to call a Festive Minimalist. I like brown-paper packages tied up with string, unruly wreaths of native flora and, for Christmas Day, I am thinking vases of flowering frangipani branches on the table with prawn rolls and a whole baked fish for lunch. I do not go in for red and gold baubles, and any kind of tinsel is forbidden – as is any suggestion of faux snow in a can. That’s a big No-Can-Do. So, that’s a lot about me right there. But I do know a couple of really committed Christmas Maximalists who go all out with Jingle Bells on high rotation and origamilevel gift…

Hanne and Jesper Anthony live with their three children outside of Copenhagen in an old shop with living quarters, which they’ve turned into a spectacular home. It’s located near parks and forest, so they chose nature as their guide for the decor. The simple Nordic style of each space is complemented by the many warm wooden pieces of furniture they’ve added and the beautiful light of the building. Nature also has a say in the family’s Christmas festivities. Weeks before the big day, they’re busy creating homemade wreaths and other special pieces to go with cherished older ones. And for Hanne, two trees are essential. “During December, we usually have a smaller Christmas tree (pictured below) that we enjoy until the main tree comes home. On the 22nd, we take…

cheat sheet Who lives here Julie Wettergren and her two children — Conrad, 15, and Telma, 11 — as well as dog Holly and rabbit Pongo. Style of home The family lives in an apartment of 99 square metres. Location Hellerup, an upmarket suburb of Copenhagen, in Denmark. Jewellery designer Julie Wettergren finds inspiration for her Christmas celebrations from everywhere, and it could be from anything. One year, it was the colour of a hand-dipped candle; another year, a certain flower. This year, a large and weathered branch from a cork tree was the starting point for Julie’s Christmas look. “I find great inspiration in nature – that really means a lot to me,” says the mother of two. “When I go for long walks, that is where I find…

Beachside beauty that’s raw and robust Waves of foliage under a towering banksia weave their way through this inspired garden in NSW, which is a celebration of place, both in terms of its mainly native plant selection and the raw materials used in its hardscaping, including local rocks and aggregate together with weathered tallowwood. Banksias, in tree, shrub and prostrate forms, take a leading role, while kangaroo paw and Mediterranean mainstays Jerusalem sage and lavender cotton provide seasonal flowering colour.

Location The inner Brisbane suburb of Paddington, on land traditionally owned by the Turrbal and Yuggera people. From design to completion, the renovation took about two years. Serendipity came to the rescue when designer Jacqueline Kaytar and her husband, Oscar Nicholson, hit the house-hunting trail in Brisbane five years ago. “In the end, our Queenslander found us,” reveals Jacqueline. “We’d driven past and seen the For Sale sign, but didn’t think it would be in our budget. So, we didn’t even attend the auction and it was…

They created much of the furniture and all the joinery for the renovation, taking a hands-on approach as their own clients. “We had the know-how to bring parts…
