MY HOUSE AND HOME
Sive O'Brien chats to interior designer Geri O'Toole of Geri Designs
I LIVE In Limerick in the countryside with my husband, Cathal, and our two kids, Finley and Edie, and Baxter, our dog. Life is busy with both of us running our businesses, so home is our happy place, where we switch off and spend time together, away from the fast pace of everyday life.
HOME Is a place of calm and grounding. I love cooking in the kitchen with the kids; we play music, dance, and hang out. It's lovely. My three-year-old loves to dance around the kitchen island with me. It's such a joyful place for us.
MY STYLE Is soul-led. I love adding depth to interiors and incorporating something unexpected, such as antique finds, striking art, and sculptural pieces. I love combining old with new. My home is a curated mix: contemporary design layered with well-loved antiques, but it's constantly evolving. I love to explore new ideas and travel to broaden my design perspective, bringing more depth to my interiors.
This is just a taste of what Geri divulged about her style.
