ARABELLA MCINTOSH
Arabella has a background in interiors, styling and furniture buying and development, with an instinct for creating spaces that feel layered, relaxed and personal. She has rarely met a chair she didn't want to bring home.
Growing up above her parents’ antique store in Sydney’s Inner West, Arabella was surrounded by storied pieces from an early age. She spent months each year travelling through Europe on buying trips with her parents, learning to spot the unusual and appreciate the beauty in things that have lived a little. Her childhood was spent in furniture restoration workshops, learning traditional woodworking techniques and developing an appreciation for craftsmanship that continues to inform her work today.
After a career in fashion, followed by furniture buying and product development in Sydney, Arabella moved to California with her young family, where her career in interior styling really took shape. Her work has since been featured in Architectural Digest, Vogue, Domino, Real Living and EST, as well as interiors books including This Is Home and Indoek.
GEORGIE MEAGHER
With 14 years spent creating hospitality spaces, Georgie’s career has been shaped by a love of interiors that feel collected, characterful and full of life. Having worked alongside Sibella Court and as Design Manager at Solotel, she has developed a deep appreciation for spaces with a strong sense of place and a story to tell.
With a degree in Art History and a lifetime love of art, Georgie has an instinct for finding pieces that give a place its soul.
Her work on an Italian masseria in Pulgia was recently featured in Architectural Digest Italy, France and Spain. A project which perfectly captures her love of layered collected interiors, local craftsmanship and onjects with a sense of place.
TOGETHER
HERD grew from a shared love of interiors, horses, travel and the thrill of finding something you weren’t looking for. Georgie and Arabella are happiest on the road, whether that’s riding through the countryside, wandering antique fairs and flea markets, or discovering small makers and unexpected places along the way.
They collect things with character. Pieces that are handmade, curious, useful, a little imperfect or simply too good to leave behind. Things that make a home feel more like its people.
