Lor’s English MCM is a late 1950’s character home with a story to share. The previous owners resided in the home from the time it was first built, upgrading & adding through the years. The end result was a unique time capsule that captured a ranch style MCM flare popularized by architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright. As soon as you enter the space you can feel the distinct personality and upbeat overall feeling. Each room has it’s own distinct characteristics, but there is a cohesion that ties each space together. Colour and warmth transition from one room to the next, overall the space is an upbeat backdrop for a very lively household.
OMG designer (@ For Porter) Laura Collins’ Glamorgan, Calgary rental home is the friggin cutest!!! It’s incredible what a little paint can do to really warm up a space. If your landlord will let you do something other than white, the sky is the limit! Photos: Michelle Johnson

“Founded in 2013 by Jennifer Bunsa, the studio’s objective is to create a unique sense of place that is thoughtful, comfortable and infused with soul. At the heart of the practice is a love of color, pattern, texture and a strong desire to create spaces that feel lived-in and timeless. Bunsa Studio believes that the creation of soulful design comes from attention to detail, the incorporation of natural and hand-made materials and blending the old with the new.”

This 1970s home was lovingly renovated to honour architect Rueben Lane’s original vision. Sydney-based Brendan Wong Design worked closely with the client, drawing on period influences for a unified transformation. Bedrooms were combined to add ensuites and walk-in robes, while the kitchen became a dramatic focal point. The home features mid-century Brazilian and sculptural furniture as well as a Le Corbusier tapestry, creating spaces rich in design, vitality, and functionality.

Malvern East Terrace House by Melbourne-based Studio Esteta transforms a double-fronted Victorian terrace into a warm family home that connects seamlessly with its garden. Inspired by Mediterranean villas of Sicily and Southern Europe, the clients aimed for a layered, open space that reflects their favorite travel destinations. The design carefully preserves the home’s heritage, with four rooms reconfigured, including a main bedroom suite and a guest room. A new addition blends modern elements with historic charm, featuring travertine steps, French doors, and a double-height void. The extension prioritizes entertaining, with lofty ceilings and operable glazing uniting indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a harmonious living environment.
