Through the door

Posted on Fri, 16 Aug 2013 by midcenturyjo

Come on in. Pass through the door and you too can enter the world of photographer Brie Williams. Loose yourself in these beautiful rustic images. Feel the sun, hide in the shadows, run your hands across the rough walls. Be drawn in to the story behind the images. Let your mind wander and wonder. Who lives here? Where are these houses? Explore and enjoy. The photographer has done her job well.

One of my favourite features in the latest issue of Inside Out was this Boerum Hill home. Old and new, found and repurposed, gentle and unpretentious. Interiors were a collaboration between the owner and Nightwood. I found these lovely photos on their website and had to share.

Perfectly imperfect

More from Doherty Lynch. The Sutherland Road house. Colour plays across wall and floor, furniture pops, rugs revel, and artwork splashes. Fresh and young and bright and stylish. Australian interior design I love you!
