A duplex transformation

Posted on Mon, 4 Nov 2024 by midcenturyjo

Netherwood Road in Brook Green, London, is the latest project by Ola Jachymiak Studio transforming the space into a sunlit, Mediterranean-style haven. This 120 m² duplex has been meticulously reconfigured to create comfortable, functional rooms. The upper floor features a lofted kitchen and living room while the lower floor houses two bedrooms, bathrooms and ample storage. Hidden cupboards match the walls for a seamless look, and a large, light-filled master bathroom was achieved with a well-placed window. A neutral beige and white palette highlights the client’s artwork, making this an inviting, personalized oasis.

A joyous celebration of colour

Located on one of the most iconic streets in San Miguel de Allende, Casa Coa blends eclectic styles with a warm, captivating colour palette. Inspired by snake motifs in the original architecture, Maye Ruiz of the eponymous MAYE embraced this theme to create an environment that echoes the natural landscapes of fields and shrubs. Green tones harmonize with red, pink, and burgundy, creating a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere with handcrafted pieces and regional materials. I especially love her collaboration with Mestiz.
