Seaside farm sanctuary

Posted on Fri, 29 Mar 2024 by midcenturyjo

Perched on the Mornington Peninsula, this farmhouse renovation seamlessly integrates bushland and sea vistas, crafting a serene horse hobby farm away from the city bustle. Inspired by its Australian rural surroundings the design palette echoes nature’s hues with eucalyptus greens and ocean blues. Collaborating with local artisans, bespoke elements like kitchen plates and handcrafted balustrades adorn the space. The design has balanced the modern with the heritage, incorporating textured renders and reclaimed French beams for character while personal touches fill every corner.

French Provincial in Los Angeles

Posted on Thu, 28 Mar 2024 by KiM

I would feel right at home in this spectacular home in Los Angeles, another gem designed by Pierce & Ward. It has a little bit of everything – feminine pinks, masculine dark greys and greens, with pretty wallpapers scattered around for some vintage flair. I would move in and not touch a single thing. Just add cats and husband.

“This property is situated on the canals of Marina Del Rey and features ocean views on the top floor. The ambience is unique, and the home feels just like an Italian palazzo in the heart of Los Angeles. The home boasts 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, an elevator, sauna, and various living spaces and verandas. Playful, strong marbles were used throughout, alongside Italian-sourced lighting and special items found internationally and at local flea markets.” 

A touch of European sophistication grounded in natural colours and materials, creating a unique character with timeless appeal. Via Donte by Ome Dezin, a design-build studio that restores character-driven homes of Los Angeles.

Refined minimalism

Posted on Tue, 19 Mar 2024 by midcenturyjo

A contemporary oasis in a historic townhouse. Think modern and minimalist but with luxury finishes and a soft monochrome palette. Refined, curated and a sanctuary from the outside bustle. A home that welcomes you home with its simplicity. Townhouse H by Hoboken, New Jersey based Corvino Design.

Country Road – a dreamy home in Nashville

Posted on Mon, 18 Mar 2024 by KiM

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.
