A Parisian flat in Pacific Heights

Posted on Thu, 26 Sep 2013 by midcenturyjo

Sutro Architects call it a Parisian Modern Flat… except it’s in the Pacific Heights area of San Francisco. A chic Euro vibe with sun shining in through large windows onto white walls and herringbone floors. Good architectural bones and great new architectural design. I really don’t care where the flat is. I’m moving in. J’adore.

Sit and Read

Posted on Wed, 25 Sep 2013 by midcenturyjo

I’d love to take the time to sit in the sunshine in this Williamsburg studio. Perhaps read. Or drink coffee and flick through records with a couple of friends. Chat and relax and bounce plans for the day’s activities back and forward. I think this would be my very cool friend’s home and I would spend way too much time there. The sit and read reference is apt in this case. The studio was designed by Brooklyn based creative agency Sit and Read.  Photography by Brian W. Ferry and no not that Brian Ferry.

A blank canvas, an empty page to be written on with life’s experiences and daily detritus. A place on which to put one’s stamp. Pure and puritan. Asymmetrical and multidimensional. Open plan and yet connected. Modern living in the Old Town and New Town, Vilnius by Lithuanian design firm Inblum.

 

Stalking a little deco darling

Posted on Tue, 17 Sep 2013 by midcenturyjo

I’m stalking an apartment in Rose Bay, Sydney today. A small but delightfully formed art deco home. From moments of drama to serene spaces it certainly punches above its weight. I’d love to see more. I guess that’s the way the owner and agent want me to feel. Time for a viewing? Link here while it lasts.

Now you see it … now you don’t

Another clever apartment design by Brazilian architects Ouriço. Panels slide and walls open. Doors swing wide and secrets are hidden.
