Driving amidst the scenic routes surrounding Ringwood, I often found solace in the beautiful landscapes and the quiet hum of my car’s engine. This peaceful journey, however, was interrupted one day by a worrying sound every time I tried to stop my car. A high-pitched squeal echoed each time I pressed the brake pedal. My […]
Laundry Overhauls
I’ve seen kitchens turned into culinary cathedrals and bathrooms into spas, but the laundry room has always been overlooked, until now. On The Blockhead, laundry was the new battleground. Each team had a different interpretation of the current trends Melbourne specialists for laundry renovations were currently exploring. Mildred and Millie envisioned a vintage laundry room […]
The Solar Photograph
Elara’s fingers danced over the pages of old books and scrolls, as her eyes darted through records of ancient technology.

Beyond what anybody had ever seen, most likely. Her internship […]
The Bentleigh House
Elara awoke with determination etched across her face. The sign at the entrance to her motel now read “Welcome to Bentleigh.” She knew exactly what she needed to do. Her first stop was the bank, but getting the payment authorised proved to be an uphill battle. The bank’s staff seemed to be moving even slower […]

Hardware Store One
Lately, I’ve noticed a group of squirrels frequenting my backyard. It’s hard to tell exactly how many there are, as they come and go at different times, but I estimate there are at least six of them based on the markings on their fur. I enjoy leaving food out for them occasionally, not too often […]
