Oh my! Oh my! A confection of stylish French living. A family home, yes, but “effortlessly” elegant. Amazing architecture helps, as do vintage and brocante cheek to cheek with high end designer pieces, but those floors and the exposed beams! The art! The courtyard and window boxes!The boudoir with a bathing suite and scrolly shower! The children’s bunk room! Exclamation mark overdose. I think I died and woke up in heaven on a Campana Brothers Boa sofa. Parisian perfection by Elodie Sire of D.mesure.

The Baxter, an iconic 1950’s apartment building in Bellevue Hill, Sydney has been given a new lease on life. With interiors by SJB Interiors there are a number of renovated 2 bedroom apartments for sale. I, of course, am drawn to the one with the harbour views and the amazing curved windows. The simpler apartments just don’t seem to cut it after that. Lucky I’m not in the market for a 60 year old apartment for just under $1 million AUD. Still I love the kitchens and bathrooms… and the retro furniture. Real estate stalking display units on a Saturday. Links here and here while they last.

Spare and white and achingly beautiful in its simplicity. Lo Spazio, the photographic studio, art space and home of Milanese photographer Davide Lovatti. Also home to Art.Rent, his gallery of photographs, sculptures and installations available for hire. A stylish home, a fabulously talented photographer, inspiring work.

“Sliding interior and exterior panels dramatically transform the living areas from open plan to intimate and discreet. The balcony features a sliding cedar screen that filters the more intense summer sun and allows the house to breath.”
