How sweet is this 1960’s California ranch style home complete with pool house?! This home was remodelled and given a modern/vintage/industrial overhaul creating a modern farmstead that is an absolute dream – LOVE the kitchen. By Laura Martin Bovard Interiors.

Beth Dotolo and Carolina V Gentry of Pulp Design Studios are still on my radar creating contemporary spaces with flair (I featured their work previously here). Graphic patterns are a must, with bold wallpapers and rugs adding a serious wow factor. It all works really well together creating spaces that are timeless and refreshing.

I have always said that New Zealand is God’s country. Perhaps I need to look a little closer to home, to the beautiful, unspoilt wilderness of Tasmania. Today we are heading to heaven in a pumphouse. Decommissioned in the 90s the Lake St Clair hydroelectric pumphouse lay empty having defeated a number of developers until Simon Currant stepped in in 2004. Finally in 2015 after a decade of hard work Pumphouse Point, a boutique hotel of 18 rooms, designed by Cumulus Studio, opened its doors. Two buildings ,one onshore the other at the end of the flume (jetty), provide the accommodation and facilities. The rooms are contemporary cool with a nod to the industrial but really it’s all about the wilderness. And truly it’s a slice of paradise.

Perfection. And I die for that floor. Via Vlakbij de molen.

One of my favourite things to look out ofr while thrifting is industrial lighting. I am a huge fan of anything industrial really but add that to my lighting obsession and I can’t contain myself. Sadly really cool vintage industrial lighting is hard to come by in these parts so I thought I would do a round-up and live vicariously through others. And one key point – the bigger the better.
