At Home with Phoebe and Chris of Sage x Clare

 
 
 

We were contacted by Phoebe and Chris mid 2020 when Melbourne was in deep lockdown. They were looking for a custom desk and bed to suit their downstairs office area that doubles as a guest’s retreat and in the future will become the most epic teenager’s hangout.

Phoebe and Chris are the creative rockstars behind the bohemian and energetic homewares brand; Sage x Clare. It was love at first sight and we knew instantly that this was a duo that we’d love to work with.

We met over Zoom and they gave us a tour of the space, we jotted down the dimensions of the floor plan and got to work designing.

We came up with a combination of our Ledge Bed and much-loved Bookshelf headboard. This is by far the biggest headboard we’d ever made measuring at a whopping 2.5m long and 1.2m tall and behind the bed sits a matching timber desk for the perfect working-from-home setup. (Daytime naps anyone?) We designed the headboard tall enough to discreetly hide the computer screens meaning you truly can switch off after a day’s work.

Thank you Phoebe and Chris for welcoming us into your beautiful home nestled up in the trees and smothering the bed with your beautiful wares. We absolutely love the finished result and it took every inch of our willpower to restrain from jumping into the bed and never leaving.
