Darren joins his friend and design icon Steve Cordony in his Sydney apartment, to explore the early inspirations behind Steve’s farmhouse in the hills of Orange. As Steve reflects on Rosedale Farm with Darren, they discover how our childhood experiences shape the spaces we create, and how caring for our inner world is just as vital as shaping our outer one. Together, they explore the intersections of memory, design and wellbeing, and the importance of taking time for ourselves.
