Bel Air home revival

Posted on Tue, 9 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

Interior designer Mike Moser‘s latest project is a 1950s ranch-style home in LA’s Bel Air. Moser preserved its 1950s spirit while modernizing the layout, creating a space that seamlessly blends past and present. Think rich, layered mid-century modern with a stone, cork and wood materials palette, vast walls of glass to capture the views and an easy indoor outdoor feel.

An updated 1933 bungalow in Austin

Posted on Mon, 8 Jul 2024 by KiM

Charlie Rice is the sort of person you’d want for a neighbor. Not only because his bungalow is always brimming with joyful gatherings, freshly cut flowers, and the occasional swing band on the front porch, but also because—if you’re lucky—you might even clinch an invite to one of his famous five-course dinner parties. It was important that the home’s bones be allowed to shine. We let its original spirit guide us. We retrofitted an antique oak-back bar with mirrored glass and lighting to create a cozy glow reminiscent of a 1920s speakeasy. Nothing has ever felt more quintessentially Austin than this entertainer’s jewel box bachelor pad.
Super dramatic and eclectic, this small (768 sq ft) home definitely makes for great fun with friends. And bonus for going dark and moody with the kitchen. By Avery Cox Design. Builder: Richard Gift. Photos: Lindsay Brown.

A social retreat for a modern couple

Posted on Fri, 5 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

The clients, a soon-to-be-married couple in their late 20s, had just bought their first home together and desired a space reflecting their adventurous tastes. Inspired by the private social clubs of London, the design aimed to create a magnetic ambience akin to the best hotel lobbies, perfect for cocktails and conversations. The home features curated original art, vibrant plush furniture, and a cohesive colour palette that flows from room to room. With eclectic art and vintage pieces, the home exudes warmth and personality. Highlights include a vintage Italian dresser converted into a powder room vanity and a moody, midnight-themed primary bedroom with an eclectic mix of art. The result is a stylish, welcoming space for lounging and entertaining. B Street in Bentonville, Arkansas by Meet West.

An eclectic home makeover

Posted on Wed, 3 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

“Architecturally full of character and quirk, this home came with its creative challenges! We chose to paint the concrete floors, brick accents, and salvaged material expressed throughout the home almost all the same color to invoke a visual cohesiveness – and added only a touch of tonal blue and a little bit of wallpaper in two of the spaces. We leaned into the eclectic feel of the home by mixing genres and styles of antiques throughout each room. While much of the furnishings lean neutral, the art and curiosity collections take center stage with their boldness.”

Through this project, THDP’s desire is to create the perfect haven for the curious travelers that want to dive deep into the secrets of one of the most fascinating cities in the world. By restoring these apartments, THDP have created a luxury space to live when visiting Rome; a serene yet enchanting space to unwind after long days of exploring. The three places of intervention are distributed in 3 areas that differ from each other for history and day/night life. The first one (third below), Trastevere is a Young Rome, famous for its nightlife, especially outdoors. The alleys, the fountains, and the clothes hanging outside frame a fresh, sparkling and vital life, and here magic is born. The second one is the monumental Ancient Rome, situated really close to the Colosseum and watershed between 3 of the seven hills, Esquilino, Colle Oppio and Celio. The third one (first below) is Noble Rome, the Rome of palaces, antique dealers and art galleries. An elegant Rome that, when viewed from the windows and terraces, opens up the perspectives to an exclusive and opulent dimension.
If I had a month to be able to travel, and the destination be Rome, how I would loooooove to stay in one of these 27 luxury short term rental apartments. They are the perfect blend of minimal furnishings, doses of colour and modern vibes to make you feel like the coolest person chillin’ in Italy.
