Interior photography heaven, by Sean Fennessy

I first came across the work of Sean Fennessy late last year when I was perusing one of my all-time favourite, favourite Australian design blogs, The Design Files. The story that got my attention was on a Melbourne warehouse loft conversion, an exquisite abode owned by John Parker, founder of Format Furniture. And as seductive as the styling of the interior was, the photography took it that one big step closer to aesthetic heaven. I immediately fell in love with Sean Fennessy's photography because it was crisp, edgy, confidently defined, all while capturing the perfect contrast in the colours and the shadows. You can check out this tantalising interior project I speak of in the Nest of Pearls post Perfection, hidden in a Melbourne warehouse loft (original source The Design Files).

But back to Sean Fennessy. I've had a draft post sitting in my blog archives for some time, and I have no idea why it has taken me so long to post it but I'm so glad that I finally did. Just going over his work on his website makes my heart smile. I love, love, LOVE!! the cleanness of his shots, the vibrant pallet of texture, colour and tone, and his bold compositions. Every object in his photography seems to have been perfectly considered and included exactly where he wanted it. Nothing sneaks in by chance.

The collection of Sean Fennessy's work I'm showing you here comes from his interiors portfoilio. Projects include, Westgarth Hall, Jardan, Graeme Gunn House, Design Files Open House, and Adrianne Stramp.

Perfection, hidden in a Melbourne warehouse loft

In the swanky Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy, The Design Files (one of the trendiest of trendy blogs) have gotten the low-down on the gloriously stunning loft apartment of John Parker. Parker, a high-end furniture trader and now the director and founder of Melbourne's Format Furniture, has probably spent years of, not only rubbing shoulders with, but also influencing some of the best designers in the world... all the while capturing all there is to know about the most desired furniture styles and trends. This has clearly paved some cobbles in the way towards the distinctive character that adorns his beautiful loft home. 

The space is sensational! A world beyond our world, an escape whereby coming home would be the highlight of any day and any further detachment sourly viewed upon. The Daily Files have likened the space to that of the land of Peter Pan. I agree completely! The rainbow of perfectly matched colours, the fearlessness of the vastly different yet complimenting trends, and the beautiful simplicity behind the tower of books or the mischievous cactus, invites an attraction that is gloriously and overwhelmingly welcome. Moreover, and what I find most magnetic about the space, is the light streaming in and the overall element of fun that, together, emancipate the soul and the eye.
