Not my ordinary stalking today. I was drawn in a little further than usual. I found this striking black house in the Melbourne suburb of Armadale. Yes nice. Usual real estate pics. I like this house. Oh a video. Click and… wow…. I want this house. I’m hooked. I need this house. Oh it’s own website. More pics. Just icing on the cake. Now I want to go to an open house in a city at the other end of the country and nose around someone else’s house and pretend it’s mine. If I had the money I would be so tempted to buy. Good house but great campaign Marshall White! The link to the listing is here. The house’s website is here.

Light, bright, modern. Like a taste of sherbet or a slice of summer fruit. It’s fresh, it’s young, it’s zingy and it’s fun. Interiors by Dutch firm Depot Rotterdam.

There is something very still about the work of photographer Chris Tubbs. Like time has stopped between the lub and the dub of a heart beat. Poised, considered, centred, quiet. A gentle celebration of beauty and the beautiful life. Like the man captured in time, cantilevered over a stream, suspended forever in a canopy of green. A wonderful way to spend eternity. 

One of our favourite sites for inspiration is Freunde von Freunden. People, photography, video…. beautiful! Have you seen their latest piece on Uli Mayer-Johanssen, head of Berlin branding agency MetaDesign? Swoon. Freunde von Freunden kindly sent us a few images to share. An amazing home, an amazing woman. More pictures (by Philipp Langenheim for Freunde von Freunden) and an inspiring interview here.

There is a tease, a peek at what lies behind the old brick walls. Modern metal lines cut across the void left between old buildings hinting at the warehouse conversion inside. The drama all happens at the back where the upper level living areas open wide to the sky and neighbouring industrial brick walls. Inner city living in the past and into the future in Fitzroy, Melbourne. Link here while it lasts.
