Welcome to The Trendy House

Nov 1, 2023 | Trends, Lighting

Welcome to The Trendy House, your ultimate online shop for all things furniture and interior design!

The Trendy House started when Ross and I bought our first home together. Although Ross had been renovating / flipping properties for quite some time, it was my first time! I was a bit overwhelmed, not really understanding a lot that he was talking about, I also couldnt always see his vision. Alas, 6 months later, my passion was booming and I came up with the idea to open the Trendy House.

I documented a lot of the progress, from bashing out walls, to selecting light fittings, to paint colours, to the garden, we got a small following of interior enthusiasts who were just as passionate of home designs as we are on Instagram and those posts are there still there today. I must admit, I have done my final snaps of the house, but they are coming!
