Della Rosa Project by Osborne & Co.
We spoke with Rebecca Osborne, Design Director of Osborne & Co. about creating a space that feels both refined and welcoming. Layered with textures, sculptural forms and a warm, tonal palette, the residence balances contemporary sophistication with everyday comfort. Rebecca shares her approach to designing spaces with longevity, personality and a strong sense of connection to the way people live.

Can you walk us through how this project first came to be and what inspired the overall design direction?
This project came about through our ongoing relationship with Frank Developments, where there’s a shared appreciation for design that feels considered, timeless and deeply liveable. With Della Rosa, the brief was to create a home that reflected modern living in New Farm, something elevated, but not overworked. The design direction was really inspired by the architecture itself. There’s a beautiful balance of structure and softness already embedded in the space, so our role was to enhance that, leaning into natural materials, gentle forms and a palette that felt calm and cohesive. We wanted the residence to feel generous and welcoming, while still maintaining a sense of refinement.
What were the key goals of your design and styling choices for this property, and how did you ensure each selection supported that vision?
The key goal was to create a space that felt effortless but intentional, where every piece contributed to a broader sense of calm, without demanding attention. We focused on balancing softness with structure. You’ll see that in the use of rounded forms, tactile finishes and restrained silhouettes. Each selection was made to complement the architecture rather than compete with it, whether that was introducing a sculptural sofa to anchor the living space or layering in natural materials like stone and timber to add depth. It was about editing as much as it was about selecting, ensuring that everything in the space had a purpose and contributed to that overall feeling of ease and cohesion.

How did you approach selecting GlobeWest pieces for this project, and what role did these products play in achieving the final look and feel?
When selecting pieces from GlobeWest for Della Rosa, we were drawn to furniture that felt beautifully resolved in both form and function - elevated in design, yet entirely livable. Our approach was to choose pieces that would sit comfortably within the architecture, complementing the materiality of the home rather than competing with it.
The Juno Channel Modular Sofa became the anchor for the living space, setting the tone with its generous scale, soft profile and understated presence. Around that, we layered the Alva Occasional Chair and Everest Coffee Table to introduce rounded form, texture and warmth, while the Atlas Orbit Side Table added a refined natural stone accent that subtly elevated the palette. We also introduced a polished stainless steel side table for a restrained metallic moment, just enough to bring contrast and a contemporary edge.
To ground the living zone, the Tepih Urban Rug added warmth, softness and depth underfoot, helping the space feel relaxed and inviting. In the dining area, the Theo Dining Chairs brought a softly contoured silhouette and comfort, while the Avalon Barstools in the kitchen complemented the beautifully resolved stone and timber joinery with a quiet, sculptural presence.
Overall, GlobeWest played an important role in bringing balance to the interiors. Their pieces allowed us to layer warmth, texture and comfort into the home while maintaining a clean, considered and timeless aesthetic.
What does your creative and styling process look like from concept to completion, and were there any standout moments or challenges during this project?
Our process always begins with the architecture and the intention behind the home. From there, we shape a material and tonal direction that enhances what already exists, rather than imposing something new. The aim is always to draw out the strongest qualities of the space and create an interior that feels both elevated and effortless to live in.
From concept to completion, every decision is considered through the lens of flow, function, mood and visual rhythm. At Della Rosa, that meant balancing softness with structure and selecting pieces that echoed the home’s warm palette, refined finishes and gently resolved forms.
One of the defining aspects of this project was the restraint it called for. The interiors, particularly the kitchen, were already so beautifully resolved in their natural stone and timber joinery that the styling required a quieter hand. Each piece was chosen to complement the architecture rather than compete with it, while the rug and layered side tables introduced depth, warmth and contrast in a subtle, considered way.
For us, an essential part of the creative process is knowing when to hold back. That restraint became central to Della Rosa, and ultimately what gives the home its calm, timeless and deeply livable quality.
