A family home in the Hudson Valley

Posted on Thu, 28 Sep 2023 by KiM

In New York’s Hudson Valley, a young family found a home with room for roots and growth. Overlooking sun filled meadows and secret wooded glades, this home creates indoor and outdoor spaces for family, for friends, and for the years ahead. The furniture and accessories mix mid-century masters with 19th century French and American antiques. Woven together with layered textiles, vintage pottery and black and white photographs the rooms invite family festivity, celebrations among friends, and new growth. Outdoor spaces beckon: the comfortable lounges and swaying perennials around a pool, a table set for an evening of revelry, and a ring of mushroom stools brewing magic in a clearing. Together, it’s a home for enchantment.

Warsaw-based Colombe Studio never ceases to amaze me with their creativity and attention to detail. This kitchen may not be huge or have lots of storage but it’s a work of art and absolutely beautiful. This apartment is giving me somewhat museum vibes but in the best way as it is still inviting but every item and every detail makes such a statement. Photos: Kasia Gatkowska

A graphic transformation

Posted on Wed, 27 Sep 2023 by midcenturyjo

The renovation of this 85m2 historic house in Valencia, Spain by Viruta Lab had its genesis in the maritime essence of the old fishing neighbourhood. It was important to respectfully restore the original architectural elements and existing materials after years of neglect to reveal their hidden splendour. The project focuses on enhancing the house’s historic charm, reintroducing essential elements with a new language evoking the sea. Brick walls contrast with blue and white mosaic checkerboard tiles, creating a hypnotic optical effect. The home retains its traditional natural light entryways and features a rooftop with a charming gazebo.

A Georgian house in Westminster

Posted on Fri, 22 Sep 2023 by KiM

A stone’s throw from the Houses of Parliament, on one of the finest early Georgian streets in London, is this beautiful pair of houses that in 1906 had been combined to form a single dwelling. We remodelled the whole house, moving the kitchen and bathrooms, restoring the staircase, putting back panelling, replacing walls that had been taken down. The interiors are intentionally simple, drawing on the original early 18th century character of the rooms, but with a playful sense of pattern, and a palimpsest of history, running through its veins.  We used extensive fabrics and papers from Watts of Westminster, Morris & Co and Robert Kime in developing a palette of soft, calm greys, taupes and greens, with splashes of burned red, yellow and Prussian blue throughout. The garden was completely remodelled by Pip Morrison and we designed a metal glasshouse at the corner of the garden which catches the rays of the evening sun.
