This remarkable showroom, located a mere 100 metres away from her design studio and the original showroom on William Street, is a veritable treasure trove, brimming with antique wonders and vintage furnishings that transport visitors to a bygone era.
Each piece has been hand-selected by Ms Johnson herself, ensuring that only the most exquisite and evocative items find their way into her showroom.
Stepping into this extraordinary space, visitors are greeted by an ever-changing tableau of objects, lighting, and furniture, a testament to Ms Johnson’s insatiable passion for collecting treasures from her physical and virtual travels.
Rather than imposing a distinctive style, Ms Johnson prioritises understanding her clients’ needs. She firmly believes in crafting spaces that feel authentic and never forced.
Ms Johnson, a Melbourne native, was raised by an antiques dealer and grew up immersed in a world of exquisite artefacts. From an early age, she learned two vital principles: timeless quality endures, and the significance of comfort should never be underestimated.
Following her education in interior design at London’s prestigious Inchbald School of Design and gaining valuable experience with a prominent design firm in Sydney straight out of the university, she took the leap in 2013 and established her own design practice in Paddington.
She also now shares the office space above the showroom with her husband, creating an intimate sanctuary where their shared passion for design, artistry, and craftsmanship thrives. Her husband is Patrick Johnson, the founder of label P Johnson, a custom tailor and clothier for men and women.
