Working on a Saturday

Posted on Sat, 20 Oct 2018 by midcenturyjo

It’s like I say week after week and it still holds true. If you have to drag your sorry self into work on a weekend it certainly helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Fleetwood Office by Studio Esteta.

Laurence Simoncini does light

Posted on Mon, 15 Oct 2018 by midcenturyjo

Laurence Simoncini has moved towards the light. Black still features in her next home, an apartment created from a warren of office space, but more as an accent along with pops of gold. The emphasis is on textures playing off the white walls. Industrial meets vintage meets high Parisian style. Which do you like the dark or the light? Hard choice isn’t it? I think I might just have to take both.

Black + blue + green in an architect’s home

Posted on Wed, 10 Oct 2018 by KiM

We are the biggest fans of Paris architecture firm double g so it comes as no surprise that I adore the home of Anne Geistdoerfer (one half of the firm alongside Flora de Gastines). All of the built in shelving blows my mind (2 posts in a row!), and the colour palette of black, blue and green is dramatic and really beautiful. (Details on the space can be found in this article)

A style-packed renovated home in Barcelona

Posted on Sun, 30 Sep 2018 by KiM

Some eclectic, mid-century and style-packed vibes going on in this 3 story home in Barcelona I stumbled upon via Nuevo Estilo. This home was formerly uninhabited, and needed many walls knocked down in order to make it open and bright. Interior designer Bruno Reymond added some drama with a mostly black and white colour palette with some sculptural furniture and bold artwork. Sweet rooftop views are a welcome bonus.
