Collaborations - Georgia Chapman for Safari Living
Posted on 5th Aug 2016
Safari Living in Prahran has been one of my favourite stores for years. Founded
by Felicity Rulikowski, it is an Aladdin’s cave of treasures. Felicity’s passion for
design and her sense of colour and style is inspiring, and is ever present in her
thoughtfully curated collection of interiors, textiles, homewares and furnishing. l

collection in my Paisley design, exclusively for Safari Living. We hope this is just
the first of many more collaborations for Safari Living.
