SLOW. ATTAINABLE. SUSTAINABLE.

Discover the Art of Slow Living and Create a Mindful Home That Nurtures Your Soul

WHAT'S IN STORE

Home is a sanctuary, a reflection of who we are, and a collection of what we love.

Home is more than just four walls; it is comfort, warmth, and a sense of belonging. You don’t have to be a professional to create a beautiful home, but it takes time to create a space that is meaningful.

At Olly Lives Here, our aim is to inspire you on your journey of transforming your space, into a mindful and authentic home.

Many objects have the potential to become décor. It’s about the creative and intentional use of the item that makes it a style statement.

At Olly Lives Here we embrace the beauty of simplicity of organic shapes and natural materials. Our passion lies in uncovering the hidden potential of discarded items, finding new purpose while celebrating their aged patina and history.

With a focus on re-usability and resourcefulness, we invite you to explore inspiration and ideas for incorporating unusual items into your home. By doing so, you can create a sustainable and mindful living space that truly reflects your individuality.

PRINCIPLES OF SLOW LIVING

We follow the principles of Slow Living to create a home design that is both attainable and sustainable.

Rediscover the worth of craftsmanship and design

Buy less but invest more in quality

Care for your belongings to extend their lifespan

Practice sustainability – buy conscientiously, upcycle and buy vintage

Create a home with its inhabitants in mind, and live in it as intended
