Inner sanctum

Posted on Tue, 9 Feb 2016 by midcenturyjo

Limited space doesn’t have to mean limited outdoor style. This small warehouse courtyard manages to include a pool, outdoor kitchen, luscious greenery and the fab feel of an inner sanctum. Clovelly garden by, who else but, Sydney-based landscape designers extraordinaire Secret Gardens.

A secret garden in Randwick

Posted on Tue, 9 Feb 2016 by midcenturyjo

Not so much a secret garden although you must admit that backyard is a bit of a hidden oasis. No it’s a design by Secret Gardens in Sydney’s inner suburb of Randwick. Bright and breezy. Like being at a holiday resort 365 days a year.

Bronte house, and my dream kitchen

Posted on Mon, 8 Feb 2016 by KiM

Dear gawd this kitchen is IT! It makes me want to take a sledgehammer to mine. Black and brass is so sexy in any application, but in a kitchen it is such a hot combination. Especially because the designer Pip Norris was smart enough not to use black countertops. I have been living a year and a half with some type of granite/quartz black stuff and it is a freaking nightmare to keep clean. These cabinets though – WOW. And the antique finish of the faucet and bathroom fixtures is incredible. The stuff that dreams are made of. (Photos: Tom Ferguson)

When white is wow there’s no need to say much more. Stunning kitchen design by Sydney-based architect Daniel Raymond.
