Alpine fusion

Posted on Wed, 22 Nov 2023 by midcenturyjo

Electric Bowery reimagined a mountainside ski home, merging Alpine Chalet charm with Japanese Ryokan elements. Earthy tones mirror the high mountain desert hues with evergreen-tinged soapstone, cedar walls, Japanese tile and dark limestone flooring. Charlotte Perriand influenced lattice-work separates the kitchen from the dining area with its bespoke lighting and artisan ceramics. In the living room, floor-to-ceiling windows embrace the panoramic view. Bedrooms boasted unique touches like a cedar Japanese soaking tub and vibrant clay ceilings. A blend of timeless design and cultural fusion in Utah’s Deer Valley.

Chez Pierre Gonalons

Posted on Tue, 7 Nov 2023 by KiM

French interior and product designer Pierre Gonalons lives in an absolutely spectacular home in Île-de-France. Architectural details like I’ve never seen, some punchy colours, tiles that appear original (*gasp*), arched double doors and windows, and a collection of unique furnishings that give this a bit of an art gallery vibe. I am really digging this space. Photos I think by Stephan Julliard.

Often when you see a designer creating a space for an art collector it gives off very “museum” vibes but not in this newly renovated Paris apartment. Hauvette & Madani designed this space to showcase the art with many unique and sculptural pieces of furniture and brought back the Haussmannian features that add so much charm. The result is a really welcoming, cozy and has a really playful energy. I am in love with the retro-vibing pink and green kitchen. Photos: François Coquerel

More is more in this British apartment

I’m mostly posting this home for that reading nook (painted in Apple Smiles by Paint & Paper Library). I would spend all winter curled up in there with a candle, a magazine and a cup of tea. Designed by Rosanna Bossom. Photos: Mike Garlick.

A Venice-comes-to-Camden apartment

Posted on Thu, 26 Oct 2023 by KiM

Back in 2019 I featured the Camden apartment of Luke Edward Hall and Duncan Campbell that was a very colourful combination of mostly green and pink and I fell in love with it. A few years later and maybe a few iterations later, their apartment now has a whole new “Venice” vibe (though still with shades of green and pink). Lots of graphic wallpaper. dark textiles, faux marble, a bold red kitchen topped with a pediment and urns, a lush fabric-laden bedroom make this version of their apartment so much moodier and by far my favourite.
