Megan Gale’s new homewares for Target!

By Olivia Shead • 3 Comments

FacebookPinEmailTweet

2015 has been a busy year for Megan Gale. From her work as a swimwear designer for Isola and a brand ambassador for L’Oréal Paris to an actor in the blockbuster Mad Max: Fury Road and her “best and most rewarding job” of being a mum; you would think Megan would have little time for anything else. But that’s not the case!

MG FOR TARGET_CAMPAIGN IMAGE_PARIS

Instead she is branching out into a completely new field, launching the MG Australia homewares collection in collaboration with Target. “I have always loved homewares and loved shopping for furniture, artwork and key pieces for the home,” explains Megan. “Creating a collection like this was something I’d always relished the opportunity to do, but I knew it had to be right timing wise. Also I wanted to make sure that as far as the finished product was concerned that it would have to be luxurious, sophisticated, classic and with exceptional attention to detail. And above all else it had to be affordable without compromising on quality.”

MG_Santorini_QCS_HR

Learning that Target were on the lookout for exactly the kind of range she wanted to make, Megan was keen to add her name to the list of Target’s successful designer collaborations. So, in late 2013 she began the design process, creating a collection of quilt cover and sheet sets, cushions, throws, towels and bathroom accessories, inspired by her many travels.

“Beautiful destinations such as Santorini, Paris, London and New York have been some of my favourite cities to visit over the years and the memories I held from travelling to places such as these sparked the imagination. Taking in the decor from amazing hotels I’ve stayed at, locations I’ve been on for work and architecture and style influences from these different cities provided me with a huge bank of design inspiration to draw from.”

TT_MG_Mila_COV_HR

Creating six stories within the collection: Hollywood, Corfu, Santorini, Paris, New York and London — each is unique and distinct, but at the same time easily mixed and matched. “One of the things that I felt was important was to create stories and pieces that can be mixed and matched back with one another. By doing this, it’s become a cohesive capsule of homewares that are versatile and also allow people to be creative.”

New York

With such an extensive debut collection it would be hard to choose a favourite, but if Megan had to say it’d be the Santorini story. “The white soft cotton sateen and Aegean Sea blue detailing on the quilt cover set instantly reminds me of Santorini’s crisp white walls and crystal blue waters. I love it!”

The MG Australia collection will be available online and in 100 Target stores across Australia from 10 September. For more information.

What a fab, yet sympathetic, makeover of this untouched (but not in a good way!) 50s house by @sellinghousesaus See all the rooms on the blog now via link in bio.

Great use of small space and working with the retro feel of the home while still modernising it.

Bravo @wendymooreedit 👏

There's nothing like ticking off little jobs! We f There's nothing like ticking off little jobs! We finally knocked out our 60s brown tile back step and replaced it with a smaller grey one made from @trexcompany Island Mist decking to match our deck (that went in 4.5 years ago) and now painted brick exterior. Making the step smaller allowed us to add in an additional manhole under the back door too to allow easier access under the house at the back. And we made a cover for that too (final slide) using Trex. I say "we" but I really mean our handyman 😉 One plank was enough for both jobs. Why we didn't do this ages ago I do not know but it's done now! 😁 Installed with @trexrainescape to ensure it stays dry and lasts!

Disclosure: Plank of Trex decking was gifted. I paid for the handyman.

Me and @fantasticfurniture go WAY back! When I fir Me and @fantasticfurniture go WAY back! When I first came to Australia in my 20s, it's where I headed to buy everything I needed for my first apartment at an incredible price! And I've loved watching the range get more and more impressive over the years as my knowledge of furniture has increased. I had no idea how extensive their Aussie Made sofa range was though. I'd love you to check out the options via link in bio as I think you'll be impressed! I think we have a renewed appreciation for Aussie Made and supporting local manufacturing and jobs and this is a great success story. We love a bit of high low decorating, and turns out Fantastic Furniture is a great place to find your family lounge, a special accent chair, an extra ottoman for occasional seating and so much more.

How gorgeous is this Brisbane kids' bedroom?! 

@brittwhitestudio worked closely with the boys (aged 7 and 9) to understand their needs with a bespoke bunk bed solution crafted by BRC Cabinets, featuring ample storage as well as an under-stair hidey-hole, a useful reading nook for books and a built-in charger for electronics. Local craftsmen Emmett’s Ropes designed and hand-tied the ropework on the top bunk and the supporting pillar beneath.

Wallpaper in every single room! What do you recko Wallpaper in every single room!

What do you reckon? You'd think it would be overkill but it isn't because so many of the designs are subtle yet still impactful.

Head over to the blog to see how @grafico_walls transformed this blank canvas Melbourne townhouse with their products, which you've probably seen on The Block over the years. And read how Damian Corney has grown this Melbourne business with wife Adele and a growing team. There's also a look inside the very cool Motley Hotel which has used a whopping 4km of their wallpaper throughout!

You can also watch a video tour with Bec Douros as the house featured on Open Homes Australia over the weekend.

    Megan’s collection looks gorgeous – I’d really like to see Target collaborating with some of our amazing local design creatives as well as celebrities and global brands like Missoni on their homewares!

      I’m pretty sure that Target already has collaborated with Missoni. I remember their designs being in Target last year.

        Yes Breeana, that’s what I meant. That was a good collaboration but it would be great to see more local design talent getting major exposure through Target!
