Dark, edgy, masculine. Need a place to stay in the middle of Berlin? Why not Nomads via Suite.030. I’d be fabricating a fantasy life to suit the apartment the entire time I was in residence.

It sits like three boatsheds close to the beach. Walls and windows lift and open, close and slide allowing the outside in and its occupants to reconfigure the space to suit.

All California Bungalow up the front and fab and funky modern out the back. That’s what I like about real estate stalking. You would never know from the street what lies beyond the front door of this Elwood, Melbourne home. Link here while it lasts.

Sunshine streams in through the stairwell of this teeny, tiny Paddington, Sydney home. Stylish living in a space that is barely 3.5m wide. It’s the tiny gems I like the most when I’m real estate stalking. Link here while it lasts.

There should be a law against working on a weekend but if you do have to drag yourself kicking and screaming into the office how about this one. Light, bright, modern lines and an uplifting palette of cool blues and warm wood tones. Case Meallin Office by Melbourne based Mim Design.
