Rediscovering Home: Anna Kennard's European-Inspired Mosman Home

After an enriching 18-month sabbatical in France with her husband and three children, Anna Kennard, co-founder of Dusty Luxe, returned to Mosman with a renewed vision. With her sister-in-law Jackie, she launched Dusty Luxe, blending their shared passion for exquisite homeware. Now, Anna is bringing a touch of French elegance to her own home.

Anna's Mosman abode, freshly rebuilt, exudes a Mediterranean charm. Tumbled terracotta floors and graceful arched doorways set the stage for a harmonious blend of contemporary and traditional European styles. Her home is a canvas for Dusty Luxe treasures, showcasing wicker armchairs from Provence, a collection of confit pots and other earthenware, numerous French Biot pots, and a rustic ladder that adds a quaint charm. A hall table with intricately carved timber legs, a prized find from her travels in Provence, anchors the eclectic décor.

"Having travelled extensively, we've drawn inspiration from many places, and our home is a testament to this eclectic tapestry of influences," says Anna Kennard. Her Mosman home, infused with French elegance and Dusty Luxe's signature pieces, is a celebration of a journey well-travelled and a home well-loved.
