Michel Penneman

Posted on Thu, 12 Jan 2012 by midcenturyjo

  

Remember the fabulous art noveau meets midcentury Scandinavian Tenbosch House? Want more? The interiors were by Michel Penneman. How about his art collector’s apartment? More midcentury classics and gallery walls to die for and I spy my new furniture crush, another Vico Magistretti Maralunga piece. This time the sofa. I think I could just about move straight in. Sigh.

  

  

  

  

  

Lönngren Widell

White, bright and just right. Fabulous images by photographer duo Amelia  and Andreas Lönngren Widell.  Details, textures, textiles, aged wood, relaxed boho elegance, white, white, white and always a hint at the family that lives in these rooms. Love it all. The first few photos are are actually of their own home and you can see more on Amelia’s blog A Beautiful Living. Beautiful living indeed.

Simple

I LOVE the simplicity of this bathroom – right down to the not-very-common-in-a-bathroom light fixture.

Debi Treloar update

Posted on Wed, 11 Jan 2012 by KiM

I have to admit, I have a girl crush on Debi Treloar. She is my idol. Debi has photographed for some of my absolute favourite décor books – including my latest acquisition, Modern Vintage Style by Emily Chalmers. I thought it was about time I revisit her work here (it’s been a while).


Breathtakingly beautiful

No words. Honestly I am struck dumb with awe. Do such places exist? After the wonderful images in the last post of YLAB‘s latest apartment taken by Jordi Canosa with styling by Daniela Cavestany I went to Sr Canosa’s website to drink in more inspiration. Then I found this. Albergo della Civita.  Matera, Italy. UNESCO world heritage listed. The hotel is spread over a number of Sassi or caves, simply furnished. Lovingly restored. You can read more here. Breathtakingly beautiful… photos and hotel.
