I absolutely adore this home – just about every inch of it. It’s newly built, located in El Ampurdán, Spain, and is the home of a couple with three children. Priorities for the owners were the landscape and natural light having a strong presence, and creating a spacious and functional home…all of which were achieved beautifully. There is just oo many things I love about this home to list, so instead I’ll just say that I don’t think I would be interested in having a concrete bed frame, the tub in the floor looks like a health hazard, and I’d lose the tab curtains in the dressing room. (Have I ever mentioned by hatred of tab curtains? They make me want to vomit. Go with grommets!) Via Micasa.

… and old and new. An Edwardian era home with an up to the minute extension. I must admit that the dark living room is my favourite… or maybe the glass walls in the extension… or maybe a dressing room with that much, well, room. Real estate stalking in Kew, Melbourne. Link here while it lasts.

What happens when a creative meets a creative? Definitely something creative! Photographer Enrique Menossi captured shoe designer Rodolphe Menudier‘s Paris apartment and it is boho bliss. Amazing architectural detail married with mid century classics, bold colour and just a touch of creative clutter. Even piles of books look good when they live in a lilac hallway in Paris.

It’s been forever since I blogged some eye candy provided by Australian photographer Jonny Valiant. What was I waiting for? Here’s another dose. So gorgeous. And still much more on his website.

My love of industrial/vintage items in a home drew me to this 18th century farm in Orgeval, France owned by a former journalist turned decorator and restorer. It’s flea market chich at it’s finest. Via Art & Décoration.
