A neo-naturalist's retreat

The home of my friend Jennifer King was the first I photographed for my book and from the moment I drove into her property I knew that her home would encapsulate my concept.  Set within the open fields of the Central Victorian countryside, Jennifer's home is a converted barn that has been transformed into a beautifully mystic home.  With a subdued interior palette inspired by her artistic, spiritual and physical journeys,  Jennifer's home is a mutlifunctional haven. 'My sanctuary has served as a home, museum, astronomical observatory, library and temple,' she says. Simply furnished but intricately adorned, there is a antique desk by a window covered with leather bound sketch books, a oriental screen as a wall feature, and a pot belly stove embellished with earthy objet d'art.   A  little kitchen is separated from the main room by a jacquard curtain and a mezzanine bedroom provides divine views of the surrounding farm­land.  And in a corner, a large but unassuming astronomical telescope that enables Jennifer to spend beautiful nights star gazing.  A haven even for a visitor like me.

 Thank you  for being part of this Jen xx
