I’ve got another small apartment for you designed by Brazilian architect Alan Chu and Cristiano Kato (see previously featured apartment here). This one has 2 of my favourite design elements – flat black and raw/rustic looking wood. And they work SO WELL together. The kitchen tile is very odd but it’s growing on me – likely because it’s such an unexpected element with the rest of the apartment. I could absolutely live here. 

I found this compact São Paulo apartment designed by Brazilian architect Alan Chu and had to share. It’s got micro square footage but Alan made such great use of limited space. A single wall was converted into storage for both the kitchen and living room, which kept the majority of those spaces free for basic furnishings. I think he and the owner like subway tiles. 🙂 The spiral staircase is compact and a gorgeous architectural feature. Overall, a really cool space. (Via Casa Vogue Brasil)

Thank you to Stella for sending us the link to this absolutely incredible apartment for sale in Sweden. Of course I love the black and white colour scheme but it’s the architectural details of this small, 70 sq m dwelling located in a building built in 1891 that really makes it spectacular. Soaring ceilings, massive windows and moldings that give me heart palpitations. WOW! (Link here)

Fantastic Frank that is. I’ve lost my heart to this apartment. It will be unrequited love though. It’s sold.

Zsuzsanna Toth of Freunde von Freunden sent over a sneak peek (with exclusive pics you won’t find on fvf) of the latest interview with gallerist Karena Schuessler.

“They are earnest and discreet, wear black glasses and have minimalistic furnished habitats. This is a gallerist stereotype. But a walk through the door of Karena Schuessler’s Charlottenburg apartment reveals the exact opposite…”

You’ll have to pay a visit to Freunde von Freunden to see more. Such a tease!
