Up on the roof

Posted on Tue, 28 Nov 2023 by midcenturyjo

“This ample apartment is a modern, top floor addition to an 18th century palace formerly owned by a Brazilian noble family. It is characterized by a tower that overlooks the city of Lisbon and the Tejo River, providing 360 degree views. During the renovation, we were involved in the supervision of the hard finishes. We designed the millwork and casework, combining locally sourced and produced oak, walnut and stone. The Pico table by Mircea Anghel was exclusively designed for this project, and the tower, now transformed into a lounge area, features ceiling murals designed by Elvira Solana. The tower leads to an integrated rooftop terrace with a built-in Argentinian BBQ and cactus installation.”

I never knew I needed a muralled sunroom or a cactus installation but I do now. Jasmim Tower in Lisbon, Portugal by Quiet Studios.

Is it wrong to daydream that this is my apartment? No? I didn’t think so. Upper West Side Apartment by Space Exploration.

This apartment in Warsaw designed by Finchstudio is so incredibly warm with shades of green, yellow and brown. The cohesion with using some repetitive colours and tiles in more than one room really makes the spaces flow. Now THIS is how you design a small space right! Photos: Aleksandra Dermont

Old world vibes in a Palm Beach condo

Posted on Wed, 15 Nov 2023 by KiM

Old world charm and loads of antiques with vibes you would expect in a manor or castle-like setting from one of my Sunday posts, but instead in one of the last places I would expect – a Palm Beach, Florida condo. Architectural details like massive marble columns, salvaged door frames, ceiling beams and a wall of built-ins for dishes helps bring it all together. Designed by Studio Gusto. Photos: Charles Peed.

The Madrid apartment of Iñigo Aragón and Pablo López Navarro of design studio Casa Josephine is, as Jo commented in this post on a past project of theirs (I think located in the same building), ‘quirky yet oh so stylish mix of classicism and 80s Italian design‘. This one is perhaps leaning a bit more on the global/ethnic side but I am here for it! These designers have such a unique eye. Photos: Pablo Zamora
