Mid century wonderful

I fell off a ladder today and sprained my wrist hence this is a post I had ready to go for next week. One fingered typing is no fun but I know you'll forgive me when you see this gorgeous house. My love to Pia whose Brisbane book launch I am missing as I type.

Is this what mid century heaven looks like? Oh my what a beautiful thing ... stone, glass, wood and steel in La Cañada in the Sierra Madre foothills. But this vintage classic is brand new with interiors cleverly fashioned by Jamie Bush. It's fresh and vibrant and Mad Man modern. Too cool. So hot!

What a gorgeous house....those floor to ceiling windows are heavenly!

[Nat@dear little house]

God those windows are stunning! I love the rectangles everywhere, especially how that is contrasted with the curvy chairs. Nice.

It reminds me of the house in "A Single Man". Where's Colin Firth?
