WINKS – weekend links. Here we list what has come in during the week, things we’ve found and things we think you’ll want to see. If you’d like to see your blog or website featured email us and if we think it fits with our readers we’ll link you. So what’s in this week?

  • Can’t get enough of Rachel Castle. Loving her new artwork and garlands and does this woman know how to style her website or what!!! Want everything at Castle.

  • Aged, refound, re-used but definitely not Obsolete. Well actually it is Obsolete. It’s is a fantasy, a gallery, a purveyor of aged beauty. Gorgeous.

  • Whether online fine midcentury and vintage design or in the flesh at their Mornington Peninsula Gallery I’m coveting everything at Codename Tom. They don’t call me midcenturyjo for nothing!

  • Modern home and modern pets. Why should your Fido or Fluffy not be as minimalist and contemporary as you? Love great design and your pets? pet-interiors is the place for you… and Fido and Fluffy.

  • The new American industrial, AT-95. Designed and built in Middle America it’s honest and tough, handcrafted and bound in its history. Love the drafting base tables!!

In far off Zanzibar …

Paradise on a crescent beach of sherbet white sand. Domed pavilions straddle the ridge. Views filled with dreams of the spice routes. Exotic, exclusive, remote and relaxing. The name of this slice of heaven? Kilindi. Perhaps it’s Swahili for perfect………

  

  

  

  

LLoyd Ralphs

Casual yet stylish. Relaxed yet elegant. Modern and glamorous. White on white mixed with textural naturals. It’s resort style for everyday living and chic city home as retreat by Christine Ralphs and Michelle LLoyd of LLoyd Ralphs Design. Gorgeous work.

  

    

  

  

  

  

  

Stalking in Vaucluse

Posted on Wed, 8 Sep 2010 by midcenturyjo

Stalking down by Parsley Bay Reserve… reserve is right… the reserve of the rich. Is the lottery $20 million in Australia this Saturday or next? Only way I could ever afford this place. Beautiful outlook and a stylish masculine feel. Bold and strong just like I like my modern architecture down by Parsley Bay Reserve. Cool cubes harbour side. Link here while it lasts. P.S. If I sound if I’m rambling I am. I came home to find four of the sexiest retro chairs imaginable at me front door. Must take photos to share! Photos on my page.

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love. Do you get the idea? Stylist and art director Emma Thomas has the touch. It’s all just dreamily perfect. Some of you might remember a few of these images from this post last year on photographer Jo Henderson. Emma of course was the stylist. She has worked with best for the best like Elle Decoration, Living etc and Marie Claire. Did I say I love her work? Oh yeah!
