Alexandra Loew

Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2014 by KiM

Alexandra Loew‘s work was featured by Jo a couple of months ago and I thought I would revisit it because she has such a talent for creating traditional spaces with a spunky twist. Interiors for discerning individuals and brands which embody visions they had always dreamed of, but never could have imagined. A master of detail, color and history, she sets moods through the juxtaposition of styles, materials and the assembly of important collections. So lovely, and my favourites to come in a later post.

P.S. Sorry, I did not receive enough pet entries for a post this week. 🙁

Little jewel box

Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2014 by midcenturyjo

Like a little indie jewel box for an indie jewellery designer. The cutest bijou shop in Melbourne by Inglis Architects for Lucy Folk. I couldn’t pass by. I would just have to pop in.

 

Altereco encore

Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2014 by midcenturyjo

Good design, plain and simple. Time for an encore appearance by Melbourne based builder designers Altereco. This Barwon Heads house is open plan with crisp, modern lines, a restrained colour palette and materials. Simple yes. Stylish definitely.

Stalking leftovers

Posted on Sat, 21 Jun 2014 by midcenturyjo

It’s that time of the week. Time to stalk the leftovers, the ones that made the cut then didn’t because I hummed and hawed and changed my mind. Why? I’m very fussy. Call me particular, finicky, choosy and hard to please. Not quite right, bad photos, I need more photos please, house is amazing furniture is deplorable or no furniture at all! Can’t quite put my finger on it listings with something that has me nodding “yes”. This week’s finds include a couple of 70s gems just waiting for a second chance including one with a velour ceiling, my usual smattering of tiny terrace houses and, because it is winter here, outdoor spaces to remind me of summer.
