A seamless connection between inside and outside rooms defines the Los Angeles home of landscape architect Scott Shrader. And what rooms! Oh yes the interiors are lovely but it is the lush green garden rooms and the strict neutral palette for the outdoor furnishings that have me gasping. Every picture is a treasure trove of inspiration. Love!

“The Hampton project was a total renovation of an existing 1920’s Californian Bungalow in a Heritage Overlay precinct. It included a second storey addition, total internal update of all rooms, inground pool and landscaping and garage.”

And when I say Hampton I mean the suburb of Hampton in Melbourne. The renovation was purposely for resale but that didn’t stop Michelle Hart of Bask Interiors from creating the dream family home with a Hamptons with a modern twist interior.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Gowanus Work Space by Jesse Parris-Lamb.

The orientation of the site was difficult facing east-west. The design by Create Architecture manages to catch as much light as possibe and as it was the family’s first home on a limited budget, the emphasis is on quality over quantity. It’s airy and bright, family focused and not your everyday coastal suburban home.

Interior designer Chelsea Hing brings a Palms Springs meets modern vibe to this classic mid century house. Modern luxury meets iconic cool in a home just right for family living.
