About this episode

Jillian Dinkel is the founder and creative director of Jillian Dinkel Designs. Originally from America, Jillian spent almost two decades in fashion, including as an editor at Vogue in New York, before making the brave decision to retrain in interior design. Today, she is renowned for her work with period and heritage homes, particularly Sydney’s beautiful terraces, where she masterfully balances old and new -preserving the details, character and imperfections that give a home its soul, while making it feel relevant to contemporary life. Jillian is drawn to history and storytelling; she uncovers a buildings history and creates the next chapter. In this episode, Jillian touches on fashion, interiors, heritage, creativity and the journey between them -and the art of creating a home that feels both timeless and entirely personal.
