These breezy, sophisticated Hamptons-style interiors may look like they’re from the enviable mansions of Long Island, USA, but they’re all much closer to home. The Australian climate and lifestyle, not to mention our penchant for coastal style with a traditional twist, make Hamptons interiors a heavenly fit that will never go out of fashion.

And remember, you can get more details of a project and see more of a professional’s work by clicking on a photo.

Agree with both of you. Yes another American adoption but it can be a pretty and relaxed look. Hopefully Bigreader is right and it can be tweaked with a more Australian flair.

PS this is an eclectic group of photos. Not many are pure Hampton but a mix of Edwardian, French, country etc. This is a good thing! Great to take what you like and make it your own. Love the creativity and individuality of home decor. Proves we're not all clones.
