The apartment has a clock chip in a partial enfilade and is located in the attic of a tenement house dating back to 1905. A marble fireplace constitutes the central part of the interior. A hand-painted ceiling refers to the Dutch painting. The walls are covered with wooden panels. Single herringbone pattern of the wooden floor is painted in white. The apartment is furnished with originally designed furniture and furniture systems which are tailor-made according to a design. (Some of this might not be translating correctly from Polish)
This project by Polish architect and colour designer Karolina Rochman-Drohomirecka is titled “Red Stove” but I think it really needs to be “Red Stove and Yellow Walls”. The graphic trim in the kitchen with the fun red stove, the lemon yellow central area with the gorgeous painted floral design on the black ceiling are really making a statement. Though I will admit I am 100% not on board with the white painted herringbone wood floor (whyyyyyyyyy?????).

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Helbraun Levey by Home Studios.

I am for the most part unphased and of fairly neutral opinion for most of what I find to post. It’s generally “oh that’s cute”, “this seems blog worthy”, or “yeah I could live there”. This home in Nashville designed by Pierce & Ward is as if they took every single thing I adore (except maybe the colour red) about each of my favourite homes I’ve ever featured and crammed it all into one project. I was sitting here working on blog posts for the week whilst working on my day job at the same time, seemingly wasting away a perfectly good Saturday and it is like the heavens opened up and angels are singing. Bless designers like Louisa Pierce and Emily Ward for reminding me why I love this second job so much.

Some fabulously bold Gucci wallpaper, black and white tile and a leopard print rug greets you as soon as you walk in this Greenwich Village apartment designed by Spencer Alton and Alex Bechara of Alton Bechara. A TV lounge swathed in red, pink velvet sofas, mint green treillage in the loggia, a bold floral wallpaper covered bedroom….it is over the top and full-on drama and really REALLY fun.

Apartments are hard to find in central Madrid, but Mafalda Muñoz and Gonzalo Machado of Casa Muñoz really scored with this space on the second of a 4 story Neoclassical building, though it apparently took them a year and a half to make it legally theirs. They maintained original elements and really leaned into the classical vibe whilst adding modern touches for a really eclectic space. I really love that red paint in the photo below.
