Palm Beach

Posted on Mon, 29 Mar 2021 by midcenturyjo

This Palm Beach holiday (the new term is “occasional”) home is no beach shack. Six bedrooms, seven bathrooms and three kitchens were just the start of what was redesigned in this sprawling 80s home. Sydney interior designer Tamsin Johnson has drawn on materials such as stone, timber and rattan with an eclectic mix of vintage and bespoke pieces in blues and neutral hues.

Sunday at a bar

Posted on Sun, 28 Mar 2021 by KiM

It’s Sunday and all I want is warm weather and a pandemic-free world. Is that so much to ask for?! I remember a time when hanging out at a bar or restaurant was no big deal, and this bar, Buha|i|rest in Budapest, would be a fabulous spot to gather with friends and enjoy some drinks. Designed by Roman Plyus, this beautiful space with it’s terracotta tones and curved furnishings and repetitive circles is eye candy. Hopefully the drinks are as yummy as the decor.

Working on a weekend

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if you work somewhere stylish. By The Namesake Studio by Toronto-based Ali Budd Interiors.

Aside from my initial horror that this Upper West Side townhouse probably had exquisite woodwork in a former life before it was all painted out white, this home is classically beautiful and thoughtfully curated. Designed for an exacting art-collecting couple, this historic Upper West Side townhouse is all about form and light. The primary directive from the clients was to create a gallery-like space that would showcase their ever-expanding and diverse collection of art and design; Gachot sought to deliver while making a space that was human, textured, and liveable.

Classic, neutral, casual and a bit traditional, with the sweetest exterior. This is the lovely new-build Roswell, Atlanta cottage of designer Anna Braund.
