One house, shared.

Under the Queenslander is a real Brisbane home: a traditional Queenslander up top, a mid-century level built in underneath, and a subtropical garden all around.

This is where the details live: the paint, the tiles, the furniture, the green wall and the plants, photographed as they really are.

Everything here is chosen, lived with and tested by a Brisbane summer. Some of it worked, some of it didn't, and the Style Guide is honest about both.

The dog has claimed the boucle sofa.
