Who is Richard Roxburgh? An accomplished actor, film and television director and children’s book author who counts some of Hollywood’s A-listers as friends, yes, but despite all the accolades and rave reviews, above all else Roxburgh is a family man, devoted to his wife, TV personality and cook Silvia Colloca, and their three young children. Journalist Jane Rocca chatted to Roxburgh on all things work, life and family and how he’s loving fatherhood in his 50s. ●

FIRST PERSON

““I am Sarah de Witt ” … and I’m a professional tea sommelier I didn’t have a defining “I love tea and I’m gonna

make a career from it” moment, but there was a turning point when I was studying psychology and found that tea de-stressed me. I started with herbal tisanes before transitioning to the hardcore teas. I decided to take a break. I’ve always been entrepreneurial and, being on a student wage with not much to lose, I thought, “Why don’t I just start a business?” I’d been reading about tea and found that the least likely demographic to enjoy it ran from 2035. The perception was that tea was for older people, which I thought was nonsense. There was also a gap in the market: Melbourne’s food, coffee and wine scenes were huge, but tea wasn’t being done justice. In 2014, I opened my first tea business, Impala & Peacock. I fell so in love with it that I never went back to study. I’ll never forget my first customer: he ordered a chai with soy milk and honey on the side, and was genuinely excited about the product, rather than the hundreds who’d walked in and gone, “Oh, you don’t do coffee”, and marched straight out again. I studied and became an accredited tea sommelier with the Australian Tea Masters Association. It was a year-long course covering the fundamentals, science and art of tea with a lot of flavour profiling and testing – every week we’d get a bunch of different teas to analyse and brew. I also run a loose-leaf tea company, as well as Mary Eats Cake. There’s a really creative element to blending tea, and inspiration comes from the weirdest places. I remember washing my hands with an Aesop soap that had rose, cardamom and elderberries through it, and thought I should work on that for a tea blend. Running a business means wearing a lot of different hats. The only constant is that I drink a lot of tea: I always start off with black tea in the morning, then I go to white, then green around lunch, moving towards herbal blends in the afternoon so I can sleep at night. I try not to judge how other people make tea, but there are little things that scratch at me. For instance, milk should always go first. It disturbs me when people put it in last. ● ● maryeatscake.com.au

COVER STORY

MICHELLE SMITH

e’s one of Australia’s most acclaimed actors and a film and television director who has written a children’s book. The year ahead truly belongs to Richard Roxburgh, who returns to the big screen in two Australian films that couldn’t be more different. Go Karts is a comedy designed to tug at the heartstrings and features actress Frances O’Connor, while a more serious move is made with Danger Close – a war movie about Australia’s involvement in the Battle of Long Tan starring Travis Fimmel. For someone who has dabbled in Hollywood films ((Mission Impossible 2 and Moulin Rouge, both made in Sydney) and directed his own drama ( (2007’s Romulus, My Father starring Eric Bana), there’s a paternal need that’s fulfilled when working in Australia – particularly now that he has become a dad for the third time, to daughter Luna, aged 15 months. “Seven weeks, that’s the cut-off for me,” says the 56-year-old Roxburgh, who is making a menswear campaign debut with Van Heusen, of the amount of time he can handle away from his family for work. “I came to parenthood at an older stage in life and love that it happened for me. “I thought that ship had long sailed and I had made peace with that but when I finally did become a dad, my spirit was ready for it.” His children, Raphael, 11, Miro, 7 and Luna put life in perspective for the ambitious actor, who is also adored for his role as Cleaver Greene in the ABC TV legal drama Rake, which returned to our screens last weekend. “I think people like the cheekiness of Cleaver, there is something about his hopelessness that we can all relate to,” says Roxburgh. “In a world that is becoming politically correct and nanny-stated, we long for a person on our screens who breaks away from that and says what he feels.”

Family time: Silvia Colloca and Richard Roxburgh.

DOM A IN REV IEW

Born in Albury, NSW, Roxburgh is the youngest of six children who grew up in the border town until moving to Canberra’s ANU to graduate with a bachelor of economics. His father John, who died at the age of 91 in 2011, was an accountant who ran his own business in the regional town. A desire to act saw him enrol at NIDA, which led to him working with the Sydney Theatre Company before landing his first major TV role as Roger Rogerson in the TV mini-series Blue Murder Murder. Happily married to Milanese actress, cooking author and TV personality Silvia Colloca, Roxburgh admits his ability to work on a variety of TV and movie roles is all thanks to an understanding partner who runs a tight ship back home. Soon after Luna was born, they moved to the hills of Tuscany for a few months and quit the northern beaches of Sydney for a rustic Italian life. Roxburgh, who can speak Italian and has an Italian passport, says it was the perfect escape. “The two

either at the beginning or midway point. “I found the midwinter cold of New York excruciating. I was in an apartment by myself, trudging through snow every night and missing them back home. That’s when we decided to give our eldest boy a 10th birthday present that involved him coming over for two weeks. “He would come into the theatre every day and loved it so much. It was a very special moment in time to see his beaming face arriving.” Over a glass of pinot, he and Blanchett make lists of stage roles they’d love to undertake. The pair has shared the stage for more than two decades and are close buddies. It’s banter between friends, discussions that keep the creative juices flowing and the very real process of being an actor. “We write lists, we talk about the roles we would love to play on stage which we haven’t yet. I guess the fact I make lists means I’m still thrilled by what I do, but not all is always possible,” he says.

these days.”

boys got an experience at the local school and Silvia and I had time with Luna. We got to eat peasantstyle, good quality food. What I love about the Italians is what they can do with such few ingredients. It’s not about eating like the rich – it’s about making ‘cibo povero’ [poor food] rich in flavour,” he says. The career and family juggle is real, but he says age has mellowed him and while he’s still keenly ambitious to do films, flirt with Hollywood and appear in theatre shows, he’s acutely aware his children will only remain that for a short time. Last January he starred alongside his good friend Cate Blanchett in The Play – a reworking of Chekhov’s Platonov written by her husband Andrew Upton that opened on New York’s Broadway. “I am hopeless away from my family. I would love to be better at it but I am just not. I feel very Italian in that regard,” admits Roxburgh. “When I take on a role overseas there’s a pact the family has to visit –

“As an actor you have to remain alive to all possibilities. I like to dip my toe in around the place, but love to come back home to the glorious northern beaches of Sydney. It’s a balancing act and having Silvia as a partner who has great understanding certainly makes the process easier.” As part of his role with Van Heusen, Roxburgh will also take part in a mentoring panel alongside comedian Nazeem Hussein and Paralympic gold medallist, Invictus Games ambassador and former army officer Curtis McGrath. The actor will share stories about his journey in film and television. “It’s interesting to see I am now at a point in my life where people think of me in that way,” says Roxburgh. “I used to be fairly reckless in youth, but maybe you gather wisdom points as time goes by, you manage to stay alive and I would like to think I was capable of some reasonable advice about life choices these days.” ●

Master of style

Jason Grant has a host of practical and ingenious styling tips for spring entertaining. Wo r d s

A M E LIA BA R N E S

ever labour over how to perfectly scatter lounge cushions again after following Jason Grant’s lowmaintenance tips for high-traffic areas. Stylist and author Grant is known for his laid-back home aesthetic – the key to great entertaining areas, he says. The aim is spaces that are lived-in and loved, that reflect your personality. In Melbourne recently for a styling masterclass with World of Style by Porter Davis, Grant revealed just how he pulls off his very Australian approach.

KITCHEN Styling your kitchen for entertaining is no different than for any other occasion; it’s simply about amplifying details to make the ordinary feel extraordinary, Grant says. “Sometimes those high-traffic areas are the kind of places we create to be more functional and we think we can forget about them, but it’s important to give them just as much love,” he says. “It’s about having a little beauty in the everyday.” Small items to focus on in this typically functional room include the fruit bowl, dish rack, soap holder and tea towel, all of which can be updated for relatively little cost, he explains. If you’re someone with a great range of tableware, showcase this proudly by installing some basic shelving. If you don’t have any spare space, the Bondi stylist recommends taking the doors off your existing kitchen cabinetry.

S T Y LI S T & AU T H O R JA S O N G R A N T

LIVIN G ARE A Creating a stylish room is all about investing in quality and timeless pieces, starting with the floor rug. “I always recommend getting the bigger floor rug rather than the smaller one. I think that’s a great way of defining and setting the tone for the living area,” Grant says. Inject some personality into this room by displaying meaningful items on a mantelpiece, sideboard or coffee table. This may include photographs, books, house plants, ceramics, candles, or more functional pieces such as lamps and coasters. “For people who aren’t expert decorators, these are really safe places to experiment and play,’’ he says. ‘‘It’s about finding those places where you can create a little moment.” Limit your spending to pieces you truly love, even if it takes you a while to find them. “I think your home needs to be a sanctuary, somewhere relaxing, and just filling it up can be too much,” Grant says.

DININ G RO O M The dining area is where styling is most likely to deviate from the everyday, but this doesn’t mean it requires hours of preparation. Simply by placing on the table some handpicked flowers in a vase, or a tray of objects found in nature, such as interesting stones and leaves, is way of instantly bringing beauty inside the home. Enjoy being creative with your table setting, start with a linen tablecloth and layer with handmade

plates, unscented candles (“You want to be enjoying the meal, not the scent of the candle”), elegant glassware, napkins and decorative ceramics of varying heights. One way to encourage the rest of the family to maintain your look year-round is to keep decorative items on the dining table, therefore avoiding it becoming a dumping ground when not in use. “Just putting something on the table leaves less space for laundry and ironing!” Grant explains. ●

INTERIOR DESIGNER

Where do you go for inspiration? It’s very easy to find inspiration in Melbourne as the city is steeped in culture. I love visiting the galleries, whether it’s an exhibition at the NGV (such as last year’s Dior show) or a trip to the fabulous new winery/sculpture park Point Leo Estate on the Mornington Peninsula. I am endlessly inspired when visiting my go-to design sources such as Behruz Studio for stunning rugs, Christopher Boots for amazing lighting and Mark Douglass Design for glass-blown objects and lighting.

furniture and homewares, suit any aesthetic. I also love to shop at Cremorne’s Criteria, which imports great furniture and lighting, and Kazari (Prahran) for a touch of the Orient.

The most interesting homewares shop? I love Weylandts in Abbotsford. This store’s stock is always fresh and the hand-crafted items, both

The chairs you most desire? I love a visit to Nicholas & Alistair in Abbotsford for their ever-changing, unique armchairs.

Where to go for beautiful fabrics? Milgate fabrics represents a vast range of designers, with full collections including some of my favourites such as Jim Thompson and Pierre Frey. Tigger Hall Design also showcases some of the very best fabrics and furnishings.

They have a great eye for design, which is reflected in the items that they carefully source from overseas. Each piece has its own identity and really adds personality to an interior.

Most inspiring reading? We are lucky in Australia to have top interior design magazines such as Belle and Vogue Living. I also read many international publications such as Veranda, Elle Decor, Architectural Digest and Luxe. I buy design and art books for reference and to see what my friends in the design world are doing. Favourite paint colours? Two of my favourite brands are Murobond and Porter’s Paints. They have a great selection and both offer customisation to work with interior mood boards and sampling.

Cerberus, Nowlan’s third solo exhibition since graduating from the Victorian College of the Arts in 2015, is named after the 19th century naval ship that was sunk as a breakwater off Half Moon Bay in Black Rock in south-east Melbourne in 1926. The local landmark has always been a creative reference point for Nowlan, who grew up in Black Rock and remains a resident of the suburb. But the heritage-listed site acquired a deeper significance for her following the death of a close family member earlier this year.

The series of 20 oil-on-canvas works use a sombre palette ranging from light sandy tones to rich greens and blues and on through deep charcoal greys and black, reflecting the change in colour as one moves deeper underwater. “The landscape, and what I’m going through personally, always comes through in my art,” says Nowlan, who helps run the family’s online retail business, Grain of Descent, in addition to her artistic practice. “[The exhibition] is dark and moody, but there is a sense of light, where you can see the hope coming through.” Each piece is framed by Nowlan’s father, Rick, a woodwork teacher and carpenter, in an extension of the exhibition’s focus on family ties. ● CERBERUS BY HANNAH NOWLAN \ Exhibition showing at Modern Times, 311 Smith Street, Fitzroy.

hampagne is not just a wine, it is a perfect universe that combines a rational, outstanding taste experience with joyful, irrational, emotional moments.” Benoit Collard loves champagne. Given he’s executive director of Piper-Heidsiek, one of France’s oldest and most awarded champagne houses, you’d assume he would. But Collard, in Melbourne recently to announce a three-year partnership between Piper-Heidsiek and the Australian Open, is passionate to the point of being poetic about the stuff. The charm and accent help. Champagne, Collard believes, “is about joyful experiences, unique encounters, moments shared with friends and family, and even more intimate moments”.

“With Christmas and New Year’s Eve in summer, champagne naturally fits with the Australian lifestyle.”

BENOIT COLLARD

MICHEL JOLYOT

Since it was established in 1785 (it was a favourite of Marie Antoinette, apparently), Piper-Heidsiek has also partnered with the Cannes Film Festival and the Oscars, but this is their first tennis tournament. So why the Australian Open? “Piper-Heidsiek has been seducing more and more champagne drinkers in Australia over the last couple of years,” says Collard. “Australia is now our No.1 market. We wanted to make sure that we communicate the personality of the brand through a setting that conveys the right message for us.” It wasn’t all about the tennis, though. The food, wine and entertainment on offer at the Australian Open were also drawcards, he says, as was Melbourne itself. Collard is a long-time fan of the city having done a semester of his MBA in Melbourne 20 years ago. He’s been a regular visitor ever since, a witness to the growing maturity of Melbourne’s dining scene. “Piper-Heidsiek is present in more than 100 countries, so we have a lot of opportunities to travel around the world, and in my mind Melbourne has become the world-wide capital of bistronomy, the combination of gastronomy and a bistro-style kind of atmosphere,” he says. “Melbourne is the capital for creative, innovative

and authentic cuisine in an informal, yet elegant, atmosphere. In my view the Australian Open perfectly fits with the identity and the culture of Melbourne.” At next year’s Open punters will be able to drink Piper-Heidsiek in nearly all the restaurant and bar venues at Melbourne Park. Mostly this will mean the trademark red and gold non-vintage brut cuvee, the wine that’s driven Piper-Heidsiek’s popularity in Australia. Collard, however, plans to use the Australian Open to teach Australians the joys of champagne beyond cuvee brut. Certain venues will

be pouring vintage champagne, rosé champagne and some “exclusive cuvees that will be released in Australia in September or October”. Collard says that markets in Australia, Canada and Asia are driving the direction of champagne at the moment. “When I tell some of my friends in France that Australia is our No.1 market they are surprised,” he says. “But if you combine the wine culture with Christmas and New Year’s Eve in summer, champagne consumption naturally fits with the Australian lifestyle.” ●

Head to Sapa to hike, meet the hill tribe or simply admire the dramatic misty mountains and valleys. ●

SAM WOOD \ FITNESS

Think outside the gym Where there’s a will, there’s always a way to work out.

hen I first started my online fitness program, some people doubted whether I could have the same success with online participants as I do training with face-to-face clients. How very wrong they were! The truth is, you don’t need to have access to an expensive studio, or even a gym, to achieve incredible results. Here are a few of my favourite exercises that you can do anywhere, any time and that won’t cost you an arm and a leg.

INTERVAL RUNNING \ I believe there’s a runner in all of us, and the good news is it’s an incredible workout for your body that can be done anywhere – I love to go for a run when I’m travelling as it’s a great way to explore a new city. You could also take

it a step further by adding intervals to your run. Not only will you get more bang for your buck with less time required and more calories burnt, your body will continue burning calories after your workout has finished. BODY-WEIGHT BURNERS \ The best thing about

body-weight exercises is that the options are endless and you don’t need any equipment. Body-weight exercises can be done in the kitchen, in a park or even in a hotel room. There really are no excuses not to work out! To get the most out of your body-weight moves, pick ones that target multiple muscle groups. My favourite calorie-burning, body-weight exercises include:

BURPEES \ Burpees are a huge calorie burner as they work your legs, chest and core and really get that heart rate going. JUMP SQUATS \ Jump squats engage your lower body, especially those quads. Enjoy the heart rate spike and the leg burn.

PUSH-UPS \ Push-ups are a simple (simple, not easy!) and effective upper body and core exercise with plenty of variations for an added challenge.

MAT-BASED WORKOUT \ You don’t always need to be dripping with sweat or gasping for air for your workout to be effective. A lower-impact workout that works your whole body, a Pilates-style, mat-based routine can be incredibly effective. With compound movements that rely on multiple muscle groups, this helps you to work more than one area at once. Add in some isolation exercises to tone up target areas and feel that deep burn. These workouts are included in my online programs and have become favourites among my 28ers because you can do them just about anywhere. So, now that I’ve given you so many great options, you really have no excuse not to get active! ●

STAIRS \ Running stairs is a great workout that

● 28bysamwood.com

SPLIT LUNGE JUMPS \ Lunges work your lower body but also help to improve your balance and coordination. Jumping to alternate each leg seriously gets your heart pumping. MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS \ Mountain climbers

target your obliques, glutes and hamstrings and the fast-paced motion delivers a solid workout. This is definitely an exercise I love to hate.

pushes your heart rate to the max and works multiple leg muscles. Mix it up by running one step a time, then two and even three (safety permitting!). Jog down and allow your heart rate to drop slightly before going again.

EDUCATION & INNOVATION

Me & My Mentor

ALISON HEARD, ELENA & MIRANDA SPECIAL PROMOTION

lison Heard teaches drama, music and theatre studies at Genazzano FCJ College and shares her enthusiasm for the creative arts with her students. For the past four years she’s also been a year 7 homeroom teacher, helping new students to become part of the vibrant school community. Alison has taught performing arts to Elena, now in year 11 and a house captain, and to Miranda who is in year 7 and a co-curricular captain for year 7/8. Both girls see performing arts and being involved in school productions as valuable parts of their education at Genazzano.

I balance academic subjects with music, singing, debating, cricket and swimming. I work better when I’m busy and I’ve learnt an incredible amount through trying different activities. I’m working on my Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award so I volunteer every Friday at Kew Library, I’m studying trombone and I’m part of the school stage band. I’ve been on camps to Wilson’s Prom and Anglesea, and waking up at 4am for a long hike would not have been possible without the support of the teachers and girls with me. I’ve played piano since year 2 and started singing and trombone in year 5. Ms Heard taught me music in year 7 and she made the subject fun. I remember playing the glockenspiel and Ms Heard always insisting the instruments were put away correctly when we finished! When I started year 8 I wasn’t sure that I wanted to continue with music but Ms Heard’s enthusiasm and passion for what she teaches were instrumental in me staying with my musical pursuits. She reminded me of the enjoyment that music brings.

MIRANDA SAYS ... I knew no one when I came to Genazzano in year 6 and it seemed to be such a big school! But I felt part of the community here quickly and I made friends by joining co-curricular activities. I’m involved in choir, strings, the netball team, debating, athletics and volleyball. I enjoy extending my skills. I’ve had many favourite moments at school. For the year 7/8 production I worked behind the scenes

and did the lighting. I enjoyed the da Vinci Decathlon – an academic competition between schools, and year 7 camp this year was on Phillip Island. In year 6 I did the father-daughter camp at Mount Eliza and I still remember my dad on the high ropes looking very nervous! I study music with Ms Heard and during every class she encourages us to take that extra step and to be the best we can be. She encourages us to be creative, too. During one composition task, for every note value, we did a little movement to help remember the rhythm– she certainly makes music interesting.

ALISON SAYS ... After finishing degrees in performing arts, music, drama and theatre studies, I was a casual relief teacher. I stepped away from teaching for a while, but I missed the ongoing contact with young people and I came to Genazzano. I chose to be a year 7 homeroom teacher because it’s a wonderful year. Some of the girls are new to the school and I like helping them develop new friendships and get involved in school. We have

about 130 co-curricular activities – from ceramics and chess to AFL umpiring and “Genproductions”, which provides students with the technical skills to put on a production. It would be hard to find a student at Genazzano who isn’t involved in music, drama or theatre. Elena was extremely enthusiastic in music classes. She always had her hand up to ask questions and, when I think of Elena, I immediately think of her commitment to the trombone and the school bands and ensembles. I always encourage students to keep up music because it doesn’t only teach you to play an instrument, you learn to work as part of a group, which is a valuable skill. Miranda is in my year 7 music class and she’s very similar to Elena because of her enthusiasm and focus. She’s performed a few composition tasks this year and she always sets herself that extra challenge. Miranda likes to put herself forward, extend herself and she always does a good job. ● SARAH MARINOS Genazzano FCJ College is launching a general excellence scholarship for girls entering years 8 to 10 in 2019. ● www.genazzano.vic.edu.au/ enrolment/scholarships

BLACKBURN SOUTH \ 10 HEARTY STREET 4

Orchards once flourished in Blackburn South, but now it’s families that grow up here. The streets are tree-lined and homes are attractive with well-tended gardens. The area is rich in family-friendly amenities, parks and sporting fields. Set on about 636 square metres, the weatherboard house is welcoming and attractive with hedges outlining the front garden and topiary balls adding a touch of formality. Inside, it is a light and open house, with hardwood floors, carpet in the formal lounge and a classic white and timbertrim decor. The layout is uncomplicated and logical. Living areas are zoned to one side of the floorplan and the bedrooms, bathroom and laundry to the other. The formal living room, with a bay window, is at the front. A heater has been set into the brick fireplace and picture rails trim the walls. Next is the white kitchen with a high-end Smeg oven and matching range hood, Caesarstone benchtops, shaker-style cabinetry and subway-tile splashbacks. A return bench with charming pendant light is a neat place to sit and chat to the cook or do homework. The dining area and family room is spacious and light with wide double doors and tall windows to a landing that steps down to the garden and a bluestone built-in barbecue and outdoor dining area. There are two garden sheds, raised bluestone garden beds and plenty of space for children to play. All four bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. Each bathroom has a bath and the larger has a separate shower.

HIFU FACELIFT Look and feel 5 to 10 years younger. Discover the next best thing to a surgical face lift, without any downtime, injections or surgery. HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) beams deliver precise and fractional ultrasound energy to the deeper dermis, subcutaneous tissue and muscle layer.
