Copper exposed – a second try

Posted on Mon, 17 Mar 2014 by KiM

Another post from last week where photos were not displaying correctly…

I mentioned back in this post that I loved exposed copper piping. Coincidentally, I came across an apartment in Amsterdam designed by Ijzersterk Interieurontwerp where exposed copper pipes snake through the living room, hallway and bedroom. To play off this theme, the designers included a copper coloured wall covering and chairs in the dining room and a matching butterscotch leather sofa and stool in the living room (among other things). I love me some exposed pipe…and some copper! (Photos by Figure of Speech)

Mona Ross Berman – a second try

Posted on Mon, 17 Mar 2014 by KiM

I thought I would redo the posts from last week that were not displaying properly for most people. (I still don’t know what the hell happened). And these will replace Monday’s pets on furniture because I didn’t receive enough entries. 🙁

According to Mona Ross Berman’s website, she is a Philadelphia interior designer whose work is always classic, clean, and tailored – but with a fresh twist. I absolutely see the fresh twist. In each space there is colour, pattern, texture, and just the right amount of bold to keep it classy. Fresh and fun.

The fisherman’s cottage

Posted on Mon, 17 Mar 2014 by midcenturyjo

I couldn’t help myself. I had to revisit the generalist one more time. A 1940s waterfront cottage, an architect and a desire to recycle, reuse and celebrate the found instead of a rip it down, slap up something mega and new. My type of home filled with memories and little treasures. A place for family and friends to live life, share love and renew spirits. To find out who and why and where and how head to the generalist here.

(Thanks to the generalist team for the images!)

Brooklyn Heights Loft

Posted on Mon, 17 Mar 2014 by midcenturyjo

Imagine living in a loft awash with light and space. Line the walls with books and art, fall back into your comfy couch and you’re home. What’s not to love about this Brooklyn loft by Ensemble Architecture? I’m still oggling the impressive wall of books. Yes please!
