Hello!
My name is Matt Allison.
I go by many titles with over a decade of experience in the design industry. My work has been featured in various lifestyle publications including Home, House & Leisure, Elle Decoration, VISI, Real Estate, Good Taste & The Sunday Times.
Based in Sydney, Australia my approach to interior styling and design is clean and timeless. I believe in creating spaces that are simple and functional, yet practical enough to deal with the ever-growing demands of daily life.
Thank you for visiting.

What’s the skinny?
Ok, I’m going to let the cat out of the bag. I’m starting a magazine, well an e-zine to be technically correct.
Each issue will feature a single creative in their creative space and run 10-15 pages. While you’ll probably see a few finished pieces the focus is to document their creative process and spaces.
Each issue will have an accompanying interview, a DIY craft tutorial and look book, it’s part The Selby part Design Sponge.
Today I got to shoot the first issue with Heather Moore of Skinny LaMinx at her studio and got to be a fly on the wall, well better than a fly because I received a cuppa tea and biscuits and there wasn’t a flyswatter in sight.
Above are a few off camera shots. I shot 180 frames, whittled it down to 87 and from that will probably feature 15-20 in the mag, whew.
I’m shooting, writing, designing and publishing it so bear with me, though I’m hoping to have the first issue out mid-August and then every two month thereafter.
