More inspiration from the portfolio of Arent & Pyke. Fresh and fun, crisp and inviting. The perfect kitchen for this beachside character house. Blue never looked for inviting.

Gorgeous rooms by Australian über design duo Juliette Arent and Sarah-Jane Pyke of Arent & Pyke. Their aim? To create an easy elegance with a contemporary edge. Style with livability means that their designs are functional and beautiful. A seamless blend of colour, texture, warmth and sophistication. Inspiring. Passionate. Exquisite.

P.S. Don’t miss their fab blog  blog In/Out.

This home packed full of vintage goodies is located in the little French village of Vascoeuil, the location of Madame Bovary films. I am always enchanted and intrigued by homes decorated like this one. I could spend hours inspecting every inch, so that I don’t miss any of the treasures.

Christina Sullivan Roughan (of Roughan Interior Design based in Greenwich Connecticut) creates warm, sophisticated interiors that are timeless and sophisticated while remaining friendly and approachable. Their modern/traditional signature style mixed with their ability to combine select antiquities with modern art result in balanced and beautiful environments. I’m a fan – especially of her kitchens. This is easy living, and I could easily live with that. 🙂 

Gissling House, Wahroonga, Sydney. Described as a modest domestic work by Harry Seidler. Untouched by time and fads, developer or the market. As perfect as the day it was completed in 1972. Definitely not modest. To me a suburban jewel of modernism. For sale. I wish I could be so lucky to call this home. Link here while it lasts.
