Renting is no obstacle for Steve and Bobby Clark who are using art, DIY skills and styling to revamp their home
LIFE WITH ART

Steve and Bobby Clark don’t just make art, they live creatively, too, and their home reflects their optimism and can-do mindset. There’s never been an absolute master plan – they don’t seem to need one.

“We really just get on with it,” says Bobby, an artist and designer. “We make do and improve things.” Her husband Steve owns sculpture and furniture studio denHolm. Originally from Scotland, the couple came to the Antipodes 12 years ago on a whim, fell in love with the city’s artistic community and never left. “A year ticked on, and then another. We weren’t ready to leave, so we just never did,” says Bobby.

They’ve rented this corner-block house for six years now and have thoughtfully updated it with paintwork, furniture, art and styling. “It’s very old – the kitchen is super old,” says Bobby. “But we have the best landlord ever. She’s fantastic. And because she likes my style, she has let us make changes. We’ve improved the feeling inside without touching the bones of the house.”
