This 350m2 in Paris is a total dream with to-die-for moldings galore and my favourite chevron hardwood throughout. Add a floral wallpaper that I am completely smitten with, massive ornate mirrors, a luxurious kitchen and some bold paint colours and I am about ready to move right in! Another stunner by the incredibly talented Camille Hermand Architectures. 

Don’t get me wrong. I’m a dedicated follower of the dark side but every so often I am tempted by the other side. Follow the light Jo. Follow the light. Bellevue Hill home by Sydney-based cm studio.

Pretty, casual, bright, timeless, serene, polished….so many wonderful things to say about these spaces decorated by Los-Angeles Irene Lovett and her team at designstiles. I LOVE that butterfly print. And the white & marble kitchen. And ALL the rugs. And all the rest. 

Let’s play a game. Close your eyes. Now imagine your perfect New York loft apartment. Open your eyes and voilà this is it isn’t it? Well it is for me. Great Jones by Union Studio.

Thanks to Lorena for sending us this link to quite a spectacular home currently for sale in Toronto. For those that don’t know alot about real estate in this city…it is very pricey (maybe not New York prices but they are among the highest in Canada, beat only by Vancouver). This 3 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 20ft wide row house (you only get the middle – this home is actually 3 units) has views of a big, ugly apartment building at the front AND at the back, and is almost 4 million. WHOA. But the architecture and attention to detail throughout are fabulous and the homeowners have quite a unique art collection. And I am swooning over the flooring throughout most of the home. AND the fact that there’s a fireplace in the foyer.
