I couldn’t leave you with just one glimpse into interior and home goods designer Rachel Blindauer‘s portfolio. From lilac loveliness to stylish kitchen dreams I have chosen some of my favourites.  Let’s jump right in and enjoy.

A neutral retreat

Posted on Thu, 7 Mar 2019 by midcenturyjo

San Francisco based interior designer Rachel Blindauer may have called this project a neutral retreat but what I see is an almost painterly approach to breathing new life into a mid century home. Daubs of colour flash through washes of greige, catching the eye, drawing you into a space. Calm yet colourful with a relaxed sophistication.

A designer’s studio

Back with more from Jenika Kurtz Cuadra as she happens to have the cutest studio that she recently completed so I had to share that too. If you ever thought painting a brick fireplace in bubblegum pink was a crazy idea, think again!!! (Photos: Amy Bartlam)

A home with fabulous architecture made even more fabulous by Los Angeles-based designer Jenika Kurtz Cuadra. She did such a great job in turning this family home into something cool, comfortable and timeless while playing up the mid-century modern vibe of the architecture. (Photos: Amy Bartlam)

 

Stalking 2

Posted on Tue, 5 Mar 2019 by midcenturyjo

I’m still stalking in Sydney. I’ve moved one suburb over to Redfern where the new house  shares many things in common with my last stalking property. Concrete and wood, narrow and rising over several levels, modern but in this case a relatively new build as opposed to a terrace house gut and renovation. I’m torn between the two. I’m leaning more towards this house as it seems to have mellowed. Perhaps there’s more golden timber tones and a peek or two of softening greenery. Then again the Surry Hills house had those soaring ceilings and statement fireplace. Which do you prefer? Link here while it lasts.
