It’s like I woke up from a dream in my dream apartment. This home in Ixelles, Belgium is a sophisticated exploration of existing and new with a stand-out art collection and an enviable collection of furniture. Architect designer Bernard Dubois was a photographer in a previous life and it tells in the composition, light and colour of this chic home.

“The rejuvenation of the kitchen and bathroom in a heritage apartment in Darlinghurst required a delicate balance, combining contemporary glamour with respect for the existing art deco features. In keeping with the client’s refined fashion sensibility, a chic and innovative design was devised that combines functionality and good looks.”

I am completely smitten with this apartment in Vienna designed by Atelier Karasinski. Particularly the kitchen outfitted with deVOL cabinets, with the most spectacular original ceiling and painted in the yummiest Negroni red”. Cooking in there would bring me so much joy! The rest of the apartment is eclectic and has such fabulous details – hellooooo marble and antiques and Gucci wallpaper and surprise cupboards. (Photos: Ana Barros for AD Germany)


















Twin Gable House in Sunnyvale, California is an Eichler, Plan OJ-1605, originally designed by A. Quincy Jones and Frederick Emmons in 1962. Twin Gable House is also a sympathetic and stylish renovation by Ryan Leidner Architecture. Minimalist modern living in a house that still celebrates its Eichler history. A fabulous example of Mid-Century Modern, not mid-century mash-up.















“On a steeply sloping site, an extensive build is perched beyond a classic cottage façade, where contemporary curves are underpinned by mid-century lines … Drawing inspiration from mid-century architecture and driven by the client’s passion for unique, highly detailed design resulted in a robust base of materiality, from concrete to brickwork, layered with warm, bespoke timber elements and unexpectedly colour saturated spaces.”
Modern living in the subtropics. Old meets new and the inside merges seamlessly with the outside. It’s what Australian designers do best. Paddington House 01 by Brisbane-based CG Design Studio.
