Don’t get me wrong. It’s the perfect marriage of old and new, of fabulous art and practical living, of the quest for the ideal home and the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi. Yes this heritage-listed home in the Brisbane suburb of New Farm by MMO Interiors may represent the perfect design marriage (and my dream home) but, if it was mine, I’d be taking the art in the event of a break up. Actually that’s wrong. I’d want it all.

It isn’t often that a home is so beautiful it practically has me in tears. This is one of those homes. This very large, 4 story Victorian home in London has been furnished with junk shop, auction and eBay finds. The kind of finds you can’t find anywhere around the Ottawa area, and the kind I imagine salivating over if I ever have the opportunity to visit London, or Paris, or any other city with unimaginably fantastic flea markets.

I was going to title this post “Working on a Sunday” but hang that for an idea! I want to live in this place not work there! Like a boudoir for their retail retinue all with the ever present, all enveloping waft of heaven’s scent, Jo Malone – Paris by Marion Collard.

This apartment for sale, located in a 1903 building in Stockholm, sings the praises of Scandinavian decor in a colour palette of lots of white, black and grey and of course, pine floors. Typical, but I still love it and will never tire of it. Makes for such pretty photos. I want to take a nap in each room. Via BOSTHLM.

Hello! Yes please. Colour, personality and an exposed brick fireplace with great art. The only thing I don’t like about this kitchen is that there aren’t any more photos. By New York based Henry & Co Design.
