Working on a Saturday

It’s like I saw week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it better be somewhere stylish. Via Porta by Studio Esteta.

A completely renovated former student flat

Posted on Fri, 11 Sep 2020 by KiM

Sometimes all it takes is some modern artwork, some bold accent furniture and accessories, statement lighting, maybe a bit of graphic wallpaper and tile…. Coates Place was a 4 bed student flat that had seen better days, and after a complete home renovation, including new central heating system, a few new doorways and a kitchen relocation, the apartment is now a contemporary city pad fit for today’s living. Designed by Mr Buckley Interiors.

Villa Castelluccio

Villa Castelluccio is a restored villa located in the heart of Puglia, Italy, set within 5 acres of olive groves. Designer Andrew Trotter was brought on to assist with renovations and interior design of this beautiful home which is available as a rental vacation property. Sign me up!!! This would be such a relaxing, calming space to spend time in, while enjoying the traditional Puglian architecture.

Bold drama with Harbour views

Posted on Mon, 7 Sep 2020 by midcenturyjo

“With iconic Sydney Harbour as it’s backdrop and flooded with natural light the brief for Wolseley was to inject high Parisian style and design into a suburban setting. This involved the complete transformation and refurbishment of an existing three story semi-detached townhouse through considered custom detailing and materiality. The home retains a strong connection to the external environment and is accentuated by bold strokes of drama and ethereal forms.”

Travellers’ inner city apartment

Posted on Mon, 7 Sep 2020 by midcenturyjo

“Set in Sydney’s vibrant, inner-city suburb of Darlinghurst, this two-storey apartment has been converted from an uninspiring and unimaginative space into a luxurious retreat-like home in the heart of the city for a professional couple. From replacing the small staircase with a grander, more open design to installing dome ceilings and painting every single wall surface, this apartment underwent a major renovation to create the couple’s dream home. The home is now an inviting, light-filled space that boasts postcard-like skyline views from every room. The interior was designed with a personal collection of furniture, artwork and décor items that have been collected and curated over decades of travels both locally and globally making this residence a true home.”
