Green Gables

Posted on Thu, 19 Jul 2018 by midcenturyjo

While paying respect to the original Tudo- style house, this renovation takes a thoroughly modern approach. The result is a casual luxury, perfect for its beach side location. White, nude and grey tones reference the bleached coastal palette while materials evoke a warm and relaxed elegance.

A colourful Edinburgh Georgian flat

Posted on Thu, 19 Jul 2018 by midcenturyjo

This Edinburgh flat with its elegant Georgian lines is no shrinking violet. What could have been restrained and dare I say plain is instead alive with colour and pattern. Grey walls anchor the scheme allowing the designer Jessica Buckley to create a space that reflects the owners personality and style. The repeated use of pink and yellow must be so uplifting on a dreary Scottish day. Another great example of traditional with a twist.

Sarah Lavoine has been a favourite designer of ours for years. Her signature Parisian style is omnipresent with her bold use of colour and eclectic furniture and lighting. For example, the renovation of this contemporary flat of 280 m2 located in the 16th arrondissement. The interaction between the interior and the exterior is always present, the flat is a succession of rooms which give access to the garden. The work of interior architecture allowed to create the harmony and the fluidity between the different spaces of life. Maison Sarah Lavoine plays with the contrast of materials and colors, the black marble worktop elegantly highlights the caning of storage elements and the lacquered green of the kitchen.

Some hump day eye candy for your viewing pleasure by Australian stylist and photographer Kara Hynes. Curated and captured to perfection. I want nothing more than to chill out on one of the bar stools above and down some yummy ice cold cocktails.

 

A colourful beach home

A creative use of colour sets this house at Rehoboth Beach apart from others. Classic with a little touch of boho, eclectic and casually elegant, definitely traditional with a twist. By Alexandria, Virginia based Crosby Designs.
