Albemarle Terrace House

Posted on Fri, 13 Aug 2021 by KiM

Continuing to sing the praises of Jessica Helgerson and her team as we have done for many years, here is another project of hers that is eye candy as soon as you walk up to the front door. This project was a top to bottom remodel of a 1920’s house in Portland’s Northwest Hills. Our work involved relocating the kitchen to the sunnier side of the house, adding a second canning and project kitchen to the basement as well as a sauna and wine cellar, and an upstairs laundry. We strove to create a new character for the house that felt in keeping with the vintage, and to furnish it comfortably and welcomingly for our clients – a sweet young family of four.

The Bowerbird Home

Posted on Thu, 12 Aug 2021 by midcenturyjo

“From the exterior, the black front gate and refreshed white façade of the villa hide a transformation inside. A self-described ugly duckling, with tinges of 1960s villa, has been transformed into a cohesive, light-filled family home that embraces the clients’ love of cooking and collecting.”

A neutral colour palette, natural materials like terracotta tiles, rattan and stone as well as a reconsidered layout, these design solutions have see the ugly duckling become a swan. The Bowerbird Home by Beatrix Rowe. But why bowerbird. Well that’s the homeowner and their penchant for collecting.

More from Barracuda Interiors

I couldn’t just share one project from Barracuda Interiors. This stylish cabana is home to a French family, their coastal getaway. Once again the eclectic mix of “20th-century furniture, Portuguese decorative objects – particularly ceramics – and pieces Alexandre Neimann designs himself that act as a bridge between the architecture and the 20th-century pieces” appears so simple yet so chic.

Paraíso

“The project consisted of a long process of research to create a harmonious arrangement of colours, materials and forms while adhering to the budget. Neimann was inspired by the place and by the person. Above all, he wanted to give the house an identity through eclectic decor and handpicked objects, mixing 20th-century furniture in general – with pieces ranging from the late 19th-century all the way up to the 1980s …”

Paraíso. It’s Portuguese for heaven. Not just the location but this beautifully rustic but oh so chic Comporta cabana by Lisbon-based Barracuda Interiors. Be still my beating heart!
