FOUNDERS & CREATIVE DIRECTORS
Tania Handelsmann and Gillian Khaw collaborate with their clients to develop elegant, carefully crafted environments that marry the contemporary with the timeless and the spontaneous with the refined. Projects include an eclectic array of Federation houses, Art Deco apartments and Arts and Crafts homes, yet the whimsy and romanticism that imbues their projects never feels confined to a certain period or style.
Strong relationships with a network of builders, suppliers and artists allow the team’s vision to be executed seamlessly from design to construction.
Their work has been featured in a number of Australian and international publications including Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Vogue Living, Est & Belle.
Handelsmann + Khaw X Dunlin
We have long admired the quality and refinement of Dunlin's collections. Our first collection came about from where we found a need for feature lights in our projects, small moments of decorativeness that tread the line between masculine and feminine, that work in contemporary spaces as well as heritage homes. We were inspired by vintage lights and antique silverware, particularly French and Danish pieces from the 1920s-1940s.
Sold exclusively through Dunlin.
