The power of (more than) one

Even the simple dirt sieve can become a work of art when it is displayed en masse. One is good. More is better 😉 Watermill House by Huniford.

Dock dreams

Posted on Mon, 19 Jan 2015 by midcenturyjo

Who needs a house when you can have a boat dock instead? I’m sure the family home is amazing but I’d be happy as their boat house caretaker. Long warm afternoons, the lap of water under the floor boards, thrum of insects, cool drink in hand, feet in the sun, head in the shade. OK peace and quiet cut by the roar of engines and the high pitched squeals of kids having fun… but it would be worth it. Bunny Run Boat Dock by Andersson-Wise Architects from Austin, Texas.

Casa dos Outros update

Posted on Sun, 18 Jan 2015 by KiM

I am a big fan of the Tumblr site Casa dos Outros and it has been a while since I featured some of their spaces (previous posts here and here). These are from the homes of “regular” folks in Brazil, who have seriously got it going on when it comes to interior design. I am obsessing over these first two bathrooms. Yummy!

Working on a Saturday

Say it loud.
Say it clear.
Saturday at work?
I don’t want to be here!

Unless of course it the workplace looks like this. If you have to go in go into something stylish. South Loft, an Auckland office for economists by Fearon Hay Architects.

Oh YES!

This appears to be a popular bathroom setup as of late. I am ready to burst through those doors and lounge in that tub full of steaming bubbly water with a good book and a full glass of Malbec. Via Ashe + Leandro.

Happy weekend!!!
