Peter Fehrentz

Posted on Mon, 3 May 2010 by midcenturyjo

Sometimes a portfolio leaves you breathless. Sometimes it is just so fabulous you stamp your feet under your computer and whisper “yes” “yes” “yes”. Peter Fehrentz is a German stylist and set designer. Peter Fehrentz is my new crush. Don’t let these first few looks fool you. You’ll find that Peter is the master of many styles but always fresh, always inspiring and very now.

Posted on Sat, 1 May 2010 by midcenturyjo

It’s a three day weekend here in Oz. Labour Day. There are no plans for any sort of labour for my three days. Monday for me will be Sloth Day. Solidarity sisters and brothers 😉 So here for your delectation is a labour intensive (well hours of bloggy fun) reading guide. Enjoy!

   

  

 

  

   

  

  

    

   

   

  

 

Gemma Comas

Photographer Gemma Comas has always been generous with her work, sending along her latest images for us to use. When Gemma emailed this week that she had launched her new website I quickly clicked over and loved what I saw. It’s fresh and uncomplicated, youthful and fun. I can imagine walking into these rooms and feeling right at home. Here’s just a taste of what you’ll find when you visit Gemma’s website. Love this portfolio! (Don’t miss Gemma’s blog for updates on her latest projects)

Sabrina Rothe

Posted on Thu, 29 Apr 2010 by midcenturyjo

It’s easy to see why German photographer Sabrina Rothe has shot for magazines such as Elle Decoration GB. Her aesthetic is minimal and crisp. Light is bright and white but not harsh. Simple rooms shimmer and floors and windows almost glow.  Stylish European interiors never looked so good. A pared back stylish vibe. Once again a photographer has me craving timber… floors, furniture, windows. A good photographer should always make you crave. (For a look at Sabrina’s darker side don’t miss her stills portfolio on her website.)

Stalking in Sydney

Posted on Wed, 28 Apr 2010 by midcenturyjo

Time to stalk Sydney with me. We are in my favourite hunting ground Paddington. Oh to be able to afford a home here! How about this grey one? Presenting a stylish but private face to the outside world, it’s what’s going on out the back that has all the drama. I can’t get enough of the black sunroom and the black deck is bliss. Join me for a cool drink and perhaps a splash in the pool? Life can be tough when out stalking! Link here while it lasts.
