Stalking 2
Posted on Thu, 3 May 2012 by midcenturyjo
Warehouse stalking number 2. An apartment in a much bigger building in Surry Hills, Sydney. Perhaps we should call it a loft. Gone is the exposed and the industrial juxtaposed with the slick. Now it’s slick and modern all the way. High ceilings, concrete floors and metal windows are a hint at its past but now there are plywood cutouts, stainless steel kitchens and designer furniture. Still a touch of retro cool though. Gotta love the marriage of retro and warehouse. Which do you prefer warehouse 1 or warehouse 2?Link here while it lasts.

I think I actuaaly prefer the first one, although the unfinished ceilings bother me. I find those cut out boards in the second one very distracting. And I couldn't get over that handbag collection in the bedroom of the second one!

Hi Jo & Kim
Just stumbled onto your blog.
How cool is that, that you've never met!?!
Everyday I learn something new.
Anyway, greetings from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The photographs look very professional & the writing warm and personal.
I agree with the previous comment, the cut-out holes on the wooden, what looks like ply wood, looks…well, cheap. Sorry!
You are doing a splendid job. Keep the fire burning.

So the only access to the bathroom is through "Bedroom 3"? It's not exactly good architectural design, is it.

This is certainly a rare find, especially in Surry Hills! I find the current decor questionable though…
