Julie Guillermet, a curious journalist with a passion for home decoration and outdoor spaces, has established herself as a leading voice in interior design and gardening through her work with Journal des Femmes. Her expertise spans from complete home renovations to simple yet effective decorating tips that can transform any living space.

Guillermet's philosophy centers around the belief that "there is no place like home," which drives her dedicated coverage of decoration and garden topics. She has been writing extensively for these specialized sections, sharing insights that range from dramatic before-and-after transformations to budget-friendly decorating solutions that homeowners can implement immediately.

One of her recent featured projects showcases a stunning transformation of a white entrance hall in a personality-filled apartment. The duplex, while livable in its original state, was considered too neutral in terms of decoration and was waiting for renovation to reflect the style of its new owners. Over three months, Studio Bluen and Little Worker collaborated to create a colorful transformation, with particular focus on the welcoming space that desperately needed to be awakened.

Guillermet frequently emphasizes how specific details can instantly improve an interior, transforming it from basic to chic. She advocates for homeowners who want to refresh their interiors without completely overhauling everything, explaining how small details have the power to transform an ordinary room and make it much more elegant. Her readers are often surprised by the accessories that hide behind these metamorphoses.

Mirror placement has become one of Guillermet's signature topics, as she explains how hanging a mirror in a precise location can transform any interior. In the quest for brighter and more spacious interiors, she notes that every detail counts. Between furniture choices, colors, and lighting, an often underestimated accessory can change everything - but the key is knowing exactly where to place it to reveal its full power.

Her expertise extends beyond interior spaces to outdoor garden management. Guillermet shares chemical-free solutions for dealing with persistent weeds that infiltrate terraces, invade walkways, and seem to resist everything. She promotes time-tested tricks that are quick, ecological, and free, positioning these methods as essential allies for garden maintenance.

In terms of current design trends, Guillermet has identified emerging patterns that are redefining fall decoration. While leopard print has long dominated interiors, she points to softer, more graphic, yet equally impactful prints that promise to transform spaces with elegance and modernity. She reveals which patterns are now establishing themselves as essential stars for decorating entire homes.

Bathroom renovations feature prominently in her work, with dramatic before-and-after showcases demonstrating how outdated spaces can be saved with smart ideas. Her featured projects often show apartments that have made significant leaps forward in time over four and a half months of work, with bathrooms being completely transformed from their original dated conditions.

Guillermet also covers seasonal gardening, highlighting plants that remain beautiful and resistant to cool nights, making them perfect for September planting. When temperatures drop and many flowers bid farewell, she identifies those that continue to brighten gardens with their brilliant colors.

Her coverage includes Japanese organizational methods that are gaining popularity for decluttering and starting fresh. She presents approaches from the Land of the Rising Sun that are simple, respectful, and gaining more and more followers, offering minimalist decoration solutions to welcome new seasons.

Innovative space solutions like habitat nets have caught Guillermet's attention as both practical indoor and outdoor options. These strong, simple-to-install, and durable solutions invite genuine moments of relaxation, similar to being on a catamaran. She provides detailed cost analysis and integration tips with visual examples covering terraces, libraries, mezzanines, and staircases.

For plant enthusiasts, Guillermet shares expert advice from plant lovers on how to never kill another plant. She addresses the common dream of seeing plants grow, bloom, and beautify interiors, while acknowledging that too often, despite all efforts, plants deteriorate for no apparent reason. Her guidance focuses on simple but crucial gestures that are often forgotten at the crucial moment of purchase, offering secrets to never losing a plant again.
