Colour + pattern + texture + glam finishes in a house that is exquisite to begin with = this stunning project by Bailey Austin Bird. I’m dying over that marble foyer floor.

For an architecture and design firm that typically only creates spaces in black, white and grey, this 80 sq m apartment in Moscow was quite a departure. A.T.Ø (Architecture Technology Objects) Studio went a little crazy with red, pink, green and blue in this project and I’m digging the outcome. It is as bold as they come, and alot of fun.

Colours and patterns, and more colours and patterns in this Tulsa, Oklahoma home designed by Mel Bean Interiors. This could not be more bold and unexpected in what appears to be a fairly traditional home. I applaud Mel for bringing on the sass and breaking all the rules with this project.

And some from me. These were taken over the last few days as I ended up having a 5 day weekend and caught the cats in the sweetest poses. Especially in the mornings smothering me. (Sorry these don’t show much furniture but it’s all I could find)

I spotted this home on Residence Magazine and immediately fell in love. The vintage, feminine, time-worn vibe of this home is the perfect dose of Sunday eye candy. Let this be a reminder to always look at the back of canvas paintings. You never know what you might find.
