Megan Morton in four-poster collaboration with Incy Interiors

August 21, 2014

FacebookPinEmailTweet

The familiar look of a traditional four-poster bed has been given a modern makeover with Megan Morton calling it the little black dress of the bedroom world! The new range from the super stylist and Incy Interiors features a simple metal design, complete with a matte finish in your choice of black or creamy white. Of course, it being Incy, you can request custom colours too.

Incy-beds-250714-9

Initially specialising in children’s interiors, Incy have more recently granted the requests of fans by branching out to include queen size, and finally, king size beds (I have long had my eye on the Eden in rose gold). Founder and director Kristy Withers said that a collection as special as this one should be shared by children and parents alike, hence the four-posters coming in single size too. “The classic design of the Megan Morton Collaboration will suit bedrooms for people of all ages. Its simplistic lines and neutral tones will complement rooms with both classic and modern designs.”

Incy-beds-250714-16

Megan and Kristy met last year when the Incy team attended Megan’s children’s bedroom workshop at The School. “We learned a lot about how customers might be decorating their rooms with our beds,” Kristy said.

“I once designed a bed (for a client) to suit the joys of using an iPad in bed,” Megan said. “This is my tonic to that bed: a bed that doesn’t encourage a virtual life! This bed is in favour of sleep and love and fun only. But I also wanted a bed that wasn’t a low rider. Something princess and the pea-ish, but without all the pomp. Something you can hang your clothes over if you need to, or dress with flowers. Something that would take antique linen as well as sateen cotton. A bed that would add a feature to a featureless room or work to downplay any inherent architecture.

Incy-beds-250714-11

“What I have learned from years of bed styling and room drooling is that most people do have a lovely bed but then feel the need to fill that space above bed with painting or large scale ‘something.’ This bed does away with that and fills the room perfectly.”

Kristy reveals her own bedroom is a family affair: “Having two kids who like to hop into bed with us in the early morning, a king size bed is mandatory for us. I am almost beside myself with excitement that the four-poster comes in a king size as a queen has been the largest we have gone to in the past. Now I just need to decide on the colour – I can’t choose between the navy and pistachio!”

Megan says she designed the bed to be an ultimate bedroom solver, giving you the framework to add your own twist. “I see it as the little black dress of the interiors world, it’s so versatile and adaptable, you can dress it up one day and give it a completely different look the next. I want to get one for sleeping on and a second to hang all my clothes and maxis from. The structure really is perfect!”

Incy-beds-250714-6

Incy Interiors have grown quickly and built a reputation for themselves. “We come from a big family (our dad is one of nine) and we have been brought up with strong family values. Not only is most of the Incy team family, but our two manufacturers are also family businesses. It’s so great to see our manufacturers grow as we do. The manufacturer we have had since inception is two brothers who were also a start-up company. They have since grown from five employees to over 40.”

We love your Aussie business success story Incy, can’t wait to see what you do next!

The four-poster beds are available in single ($799), queen ($1,299) and king ($1,599) from Incy Interiors online. Their new Chatswood Chase store in Sydney is due to open at the end of September. More stockists will be announced soon.

Is there a more decadent and delicious soup than F Is there a more decadent and delicious soup than French onion?

I think not!

Grab the recipe on the blog this morning via link in bio.
Get to know me! I haven't done one of these in YE Get to know me!

I haven't done one of these in YEARS so there's possibly thousands of you who don't know my back story. Here's a few things you may not know about me!

✔️ I'm English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 and I moved here (just for one year) back in 2008😆 

✔️ I can't end the day without a bath, even if I get home really late or on a really hot day. It's a mental health thing and my happy place. 🛁 

✔️ Before becoming a blogger and running my own small business, I was a journalist from the age of 18. My favourite news gathering times were as a newspaper crime reporter (bit different to interiors!) 📓 

✔️ I once worked at New Scotland Yard in London 🚔 

✔️I had an interview at Oxford (didn't get in!) but chose not to go to uni at all after being offered a job on the local paper #universityoflife 😁

✔️ My mum died when I was 3, I have an excellent dad and one sister (younger) in the UK ❤️ 🇬🇧 

✔️ At school, my favourite subject was French 🇫🇷 and I was head girl 🤓🤓

✔️ I'm addicted to ☕️ , long hot baths and💄 (been wearing it since I was about 14!)

✔️ I'm not a phonecall person and will never ever pick up an unknown number. Ever. They can leave a message 😁

✔️ My favourite cuisine is Japanese 🍣 🍜 and Damian and I honeymooned in Tokyo and Venice 

✔️ I have zero design qualifications. I just started blogging about my passion, which is trying to persuade everyone to #heartyourhome That was 11 years ago...

✔️ My favourite tipple is a good GnT or🍷 

✔️ Cheesy as it sounds, 💁‍♀️being a mum is my absolute biggest joy in life 🧒👦

✔️ I will never give up my old school paper diary! Has to be A5 and week to view 📖 

✔️ My official surname isn't Bishop. I kept my maiden name for work after I got married but changed it for everything else. Often confuse myself!

✔️ I didn't get my Ps until I was 37 and I'm still a terrible parker 😯 🅿️

Hope you feel like you know me a bit better 😘

Blue, green or lilac? 🎨 @nood_co coloured con Blue, green or lilac? 🎨 

@nood_co coloured concrete basins is a great Aussie business success story. Although co founder Matt Di Costa first found fame as one half of Matt and Kim on The Block, he hasn't relied on this to build his brand.

“We are very honoured to have been a part of The Block, and all they have done for us. I am, however, a believer in letting the product take centre stage,” he says.

Read our interview with Matt via link in bio now.

I'd love to see more colour in Aussie interiors! I'd love to see more colour in Aussie  interiors! 🎨 

At the end of the day though, it's a matter of personal taste. I love pops of colour but it's not for everyone. 

We couldn't resist featuring this Canadian house tour today. The amazing Kelly Green  hutch (swipe) was an upcycled $200 find 🤗

Head over to the blog via link in bio to see the rest including one of the best playrooms we've seen in ages!

The things that excite me as a 40 year old 🤭 N The things that excite me as a 40 year old 🤭

None of us enjoy laundry (OK, there are a few of you out there who do. Weird!) but we have to do it. And often. So if your laundry bin can be as good looking, functional and space saving as this, then why wouldn't you?!

I've lost track of how many baskets I've thrown out because they've gone soggy or mouldy. They look pretty, sure, but they're not fit for purpose and they're often messy and overflowing.

Here's what I love about his @brabantia_australia one:

✔️ ventilation holes
✔️ no need to remove the lid for small items plus it hides your dirty laundry from view
✔️ easily removable and washable inner laundry bag that velcros back on 
✔️ corrosion resistant so fine in bathroom or laundry 
✔️ Brabantia make things as sustainably as possible
✔️ compact, sleek, European design
✔️ 10 year warranty
✔️ tall and skinny so takes up less floor in my tiny laundry

The Rolls Royce of laundry bins? I think so 👌🏻

TOLD you this was going to be exciting!

Now I need to know, do you have your laundry basket in the bathroom, the laundry, every bedroom? We used to have one in each bedroom but moved to the laundry-only situation which I much prefer (one for colours and one for whites). My boys know to put their used clothes in the bin in the laundry each night and they're 7 and 3!  #raisingfuturehusbands

"Living rooms are important spaces where our publi "Living rooms are important spaces where our public and private lives intersect."

So says stylist @nataliewalton in her gorgeous new book Style, the Art of Creating a Beautiful Home.

"They are where we gather to welcome guests and entertain. But they are also where we decompress and relax at the end of the day. Increasingly, they are open-plan spaces and need to work within a greater scheme. Bringing all the elements together cohesively requires care and consideration. And, if you want a space that lives up to its true potential, make it personal and create with conviction."

Read an extract, the chapter on elevating your living room, on the blog today via link in bio.
