More kitchen love for Pluck

Posted on Wed, 29 Jul 2020 by midcenturyjo

Okay, okay I have to share just one more kitchen from London-based designers and manufacturers Pluck. Cook and author Anna Barnett lives in a converted Victorian school in East London and this is her small but perfectly formed creative space. Anyone else envious?

A transformed Amsterdam canal house

Posted on Tue, 28 Jul 2020 by KiM

Bringing my loft dreams to life in this dreamy industrial space created by Studio BakkerIn organic succession, Studio Bakker renovated, redesigned and styled this former archive attic in a historic Amsterdam canal house, transforming it into a loft style home consisting of five connected floors under two roofs. An enchanting route leads to an oasis of peace and quiet, decorated with earthy materials and corresponding color palette with natural light pouring in from various sides. A Wabi-sabi aesthetic provides the lens through which modern and vintage design pieces mix with a host of honest materials – including old and new woods, loam and granite, steel and aluminum, leather and linen. The styling subtly references the wealth of cultures housed beneath these roofs.

A small yet sophisticated apartment in London

Posted on Tue, 28 Jul 2020 by KiM

Small doesn’t have to mean insignificant and boring. Make every piece count and a small space can feel larger than life. From white shell, to layered urban retreat. A complete redesign and renovation of this one bed London apartment, creating a new start for the homeowner. A layered scheme of pale wood, natural stone and linen with touches of brass and laquered wood. The palette is a soft neutral base (perfect for our client) with a powerful deep burgundy top note that adds sensuality. Bespoke joinery creates ample storage with black metal details throughout that ground the whole space. We opened up all the doorways to full ceiling height and connected the kitchen to the space with a new opening. Interior design by 2LG Studio.

Consistent, timeless, unique. Elegant and restained, layers of patina and carefully curated pieces. A new home that respects the past and builds a future. Belle Meade residence by Nashville-based interior designer Rachel Halvorson.


 

 

 

  

  

 

 

Bathing beauties

Posted on Mon, 27 Jul 2020 by midcenturyjo

Daydreams of soaking in old style tubs. Bathroom beauties from the past still stylish today. I’m getting my toes wet on Catchpole & Rye‘s website. Hmmm Turkish Ottoman Villa or Pimlico boutique hotel room as inspiration? I think it’s the villa for me. That cage shower is seriously sexy.
