When modern architecture and black comes together and produces something that dreams are made of. The Frame House Melbourne by Carr Design Group. Situated on a large block in Melbourne, the family home exposes little to the street. Behind the textured stucco wall a striking house is revealed within a lush secret garden. The rhythm of the colonnade and overall proportions evoke the elegance of Georgian architecture. Conversely the house is bold and contemporary with its robust steel frame supporting a finely detailed metal screen and zinc cladding.

Summer is upon many of us and I think I just found the ideal summer house. Yes, I can imagine taking the summer off work and hanging out here basking in the sun, swimming in the lake and enjoying the jaw-dropping views. It is incredible how architecture firm Jensen & Skodvin incorporated the side of the mountain into the home. This home is a true architectural masterpiece. (Thank you Silje for the link!) 

Paloma Contreras

I was surprised to realize that we have never featured the fabulous style of Paloma Contreras of La Dolce Vita Blog. This project is my favourite of hers and showcases her aesthetic – traditional with a modern and glamourous twist. A definite feminine vibe that is elegant, refined and timeless.

Welcome to the traditional yet whimsical world of Parker & Company – an interior design firm based in Connecticut. Where deer, dogs, rabbits, foxes and horses run amok.
