An apartment in Paris…

…or is it?

Israel-based Ando Studio designed this apartment in Saint Germain, Paris last year. The team of architects, interior designers and CG artists specialize in 3D renderings. So this apartment is….or isn’t…. Although either way it is freaking fantastic!

Just because

Just a few random rooms by Kathleen Clements. Just because I love her work.

 

 

Stalking

Posted on Wed, 11 Nov 2015 by midcenturyjo

I’m stalking one of my favourite style mavens. Interior designer Pamela Makin of Les Interieurs has cast a spell over this tiny pied-à-terre at Rushcutters Bay, Sydney and created an inner city oasis. If I bought it I would have to insist that everything stays. Link here while it lasts.

 

pushmi-pullyu house

Posted on Tue, 10 Nov 2015 by KiM

The “PUSHmi-PULLyu” house is a renovation of a worker’s house in Greenpoint for a creative couple and their growing family. The project was coined “PUSHmi-PULLyu” as a result of the forces at play in the work, drawing circulation, light and exterior materials into the house through its openings. The vision for the project was to marry the client’s two passions: modern simplicity + an unerring appreciation for the rustic qualities of the original house. This led to the invention of the term “m-ustic”, which became a new architectural language for the project. Modern elements were treated as black, abstract insertions while the rustic qualities inherent in the house were restored and enhanced. This home really speaks to me. It represents everything I always hoped my last house could have been…but wasn’t. This is taking something old and restoring the wonderful while replacing the horrible.

I love this apartment by Paris based designer Sandra Benhamou. Parisian chic with lots of whimsy, colour and really incredible furnishings and accessories. And OMG how I adore chevron hardwood!
