Assemblage

Spaces, objects, artisans: discover the art of assemblage in twenty-four inspiring homes.

From furniture and fittings, to lighting choices, colour palettes and art curation, Shannon McGrath, one of Australia’s most acclaimed interiors photographers, opens her archive to reveal the details and layers that make up a room.

A house is not just a series of openings and closings but a curated collection of objects and belongings, from the architects who have built the spaces to the artisans and makers who have crafted the objects, and the owners who display them proudly. Grand or small, each gesture speaks across generations, adding layers of detail that bring a house to life.

Assemblage is a true celebration of the beauty of design and intentional curation, revealing that even the smallest of objects, and the way they are assembled, can make an extraordinary impact.
