There’s something distinctly special about living in a historic home. You get all the charm from the house’s past, with the potential to make your mark on the space. That’s precisely what freelance photographer Natalie Jeffcott and her partner did with their 1880s brick home’s kitchen in Melbourne, Australia. They were ready to make their mark.
