Modern meets classic meets earthy

Posted on Fri, 26 Jan 2024 by KiM

This is what Kate Marker does best. Neutral, earthy tones with some dark touches, a classic and approachable take on modern that is really cozy and timeless. This massive house has a lot of white going on for my personal taste but Kate manages to make it feel really warm with some of the secondary spaces in darker tones and leaning on wood elements to add texture and keep it from being too bright and stark.

Woollahra Terrace by Madeleine Blanchfield Architects blends original character with contemporary family living. Transforming the original dark residence, the vibrant and fresh design emphasises existing period details within a modern context. Arched doors connect the new living space, echoing the original brick doorway motif. A sunlit kitchen, framed by steel windows, centres the layout. Monochrome interiors are offset by greenery-framed views while the austere concrete and white exteriors contrast with a lush, intentionally flowerless garden.

It’s that simple

Sometimes a home just needs a simple, relaxed and minimal take on its interior. After hours of searching for content for this blog when I come across something like this, it is so refreshing and calming. A colonial home in Westchester, NY by Studio Dorion.

An easy sophistication

Subtle sophistication. A home rich in texture while restrained in palette. Think warm wood and natural materials, white walls and light-filled rooms. Easy, stylish living. This East Hamptons retreat is the holiday bolt-hole of interior designer Julie Hillman where she blends classic and contemporary. A welcoming, warm oasis full of antique finds, contemporary art and personal pieces.

A kitchen with lots of white and wood

What a wonderful kitchen this is!!! So bright with all the white, then add in that whole back section clad in wood and it takes this space to a whole other level of awesome. The warmth the wood adds really makes it feel cozy and lived in. The perfect family kitchen. Designed by April Tomlin Interiors. Photos: Paige Rumore.
