Another look

Posted on Tue, 24 Apr 2012 by midcenturyjo

I was looking for ideas for a temporary wall for an upcoming event. I knew the perfect solution was in our archives. When I found it again I realised just how much I really liked this office space. Too cool. I just had to share again. Design by Alwill.

SJ Interior Design

A beautiful scandinavian style farmhouse in the American countryside. Simple, classic, modern, stylish and achievable. In a word home. Sisse Jonassen of SJ Interior Design. When can I move in? I’m sure we would be a perfect fit.

What the!

Posted on Mon, 23 Apr 2012 by midcenturyjo

White. White wash. White out. White on white. White the hell is going on here!!! I’ve heard of monochrome but this is more like monotonous. I’ve been real estate stalking in sunny Queensland and somehow I am snow blind. What were they thinking? Someone please buy this house and fill it with colour or at least do a drive by with a paint gun! My favourite is the camouflaged dog. Here while the link lasts.

Bali beauty

Posted on Mon, 23 Apr 2012 by midcenturyjo

What a way to start the working week! Daydreams of holidays in a tropical paradise. Poised on a cliff above the warm waters that lap the shores of the island of Bali is a small piece of perfection. The Alila Villas Uluwatu. Beauty, serenity, relaxation and luxury with views that go on forever or idyllic privacy surrounded by high walls. Whatever your weary soul desires. The architecture seamlessly flows from the inside to outside. Pools stretch to infinity. The design is by award-winning Singapore architectural firm, WOHA. I don’t want to go to work tomorrow. Not now.
