We chat with co-founder and creative director Emma Lane about the latest addition to The Range Estates, including her worldly design inspirations and why Hale Mercantile Co. was the perfect fit for this stunning project.

What sets Copperstone apart from your other properties?
Copperstone is an accumulation of all the learnings from our previous projects. As we built from scratch, we were able to really take advantage of the land site and take the design to another level, creating a more sophisticated offering than any of our previous projects.
Where do you find inspiration?
Travel and adventuring amongst old cities and centuries-old country estates across Europe. We want our guests to feel a home away from home and a touch of European holiday escapism in the hinterland of Byron Bay.

What is your favourite part of Copperstone?
The main living area of the homestead. It has generous proportions with grand-scale vast ceilings and beautiful minimalism, but at the same time, it has a softness that makes it feel like a home.

What were the most challenging and rewarding parts of completing Copperstone?
The most challenging element of the build was trying to manoeuvre the huge ceiling beams at the early construction stage, which were both extremely heavy and expansive in size. The most rewarding part was covering the walls with breathable Ibizan plaster that not only looks beautiful and textual but actually improves the air quality of the bedrooms as you sleep.

What's next?
Firstly, a moment to breathe, as over the last two years we have completed two large projects – Copperstone in Bangalow and Highground in the Southern Highlands. We are working on a few other projects behind the scenes but these are in the early stages of design and planning.

You've selected Hale Mercantile Co. pieces for several of your properties, could you tell us what it is about our range that resonates with you?
Hale Mercantile colours are seamlessly compatible with the colours we have used in all of our projects – they have just the right amount of depth of colour yet at the same time are muted to perfection. The Hale Mercantile palette always works across our colour choices, not to mention the European linen is an obvious choice and a symbiotic partnership with our European theming and design inspiration.

What are your favourite Hale Mercantile pieces?
I love the soft edges of the Flocca range, including the cushions, pillowcases and pure linen duvet covers, and I love how the linen towels are super absorbent yet lightweight.
