House Rules 2016: Claire & Hagan’s finest work

The layout, the navy and white palette and the choice of a country-style table were all winners in the kitchen Claire and Hagan devised for the Queensland twins.

Called upon to deliver Hamptons-style sophistication, Claire and Hagan did just that for their Victorian neighbours, with great furniture choices and a knockout scheme.

Cafe style ruled supreme in the South Australians’ compact dining area, with a custom bench seat and great choice of lighting all working the cool vibe.

Responding to the NSW team’s request to ‘create an A-lister’s entertainer’, Claire and Hagan delivered with this chic outside zone. Hagan custom made the striking timber privacy screen that turns a practical requirement into a design delight.

The Victorians created a wonderful outdoor entertaining area for their South Australia team-mates, complete with paving, pergola and a huge outdoor oven with a practical bench. As time passes, jasmine will grow over the pergola, and at night it will be softly lit by fairy lights.
