The Design Duet
City, Coast and Country: The Timeless Vision of Adelaide Bragg
We’re joined by Adelaide Bragg, one of Australia’s most gifted interior designers, celebrated for her extraordinary eye for colour, fabric, and texture, and her ability to weave them together into homes of timeless beauty.
With a career spanning decades, Adelaide has created interiors that are not only architecturally harmonious but deeply personal, layered, and full of warmth. Her work is instantly recognisable for its elegance and spaces that feel as though they’ve always belonged to the people who live in them.
Now, Adelaide shares her vision in her much-anticipated new book, City, Coast and Country , a stunning volume that opens the doors to a collection of remarkable homes she has crafted for clients across Australia. The book reveals how she brings together architecture, colour, textiles, and cherished pieces to create places that are as beautiful as they are lived in. Both a celebration of design and a testament to her unique gift, it captures Adelaide’s ability to make houses truly feel like home.
In this episode, we talk about her childhood, what drew her to design, how the industry has evolved over the years, the talented team she’s built, and so much more.
We end today’s conversation reflecting on Adelaide’s rare ability to blend story, history, and personal detail, a reminder that great design is never just about the space, but about the people who live within it.
