Australian Home of former Beatle George Harrison

George Harrison, the Beatles lead guitarist who died in 2001, and his wife, Olivia, built an isolated sanctuary on Australia’s Hamilton Island in 1987.

The living room of the main house features a peaked bamboo ceiling, a tree trunk the musician found on the island and a curved wall of windows.

Angus Leendertz, designed the interiors, using pieces from both Australia and England.

The musician worked closely with landscape designer Malcolm Hunt on the gardens and pool area.

The compound has three guest huts.

George was one of my favorite Beatles, who can pick just one?

Stipes and the Beach

I can't get enough of this Home! This patio doubles as an outdoor room with it's own fireplace on those chilly nights...

Nautical Theme

Nothing says nautical to me more than blue and white together! This glider is adorable, it reminds me of the one my grandparents had years ago.

Clean fresh linens in nautical stripes!

The oar's are my favorite! Oh and the sea grass rug!

The fabric as a back drop is an easy fix to an ugly wall...

How about an old Sail made into a headboard!

Hope your all enjoying a lazy summer!

The stripes theme continues into the dining room. The rustic chandelier is so unique and really makes a statement.

The shutter doors close by sliding along cable.
