Waking up

Posted on Wed, 4 Apr 2018 by midcenturyjo

Imagine waking up in this gorgeous master bedroom within a Grade-II listed Georgian townhouse in Islington, London. It’s just about perfect. Mid century vibes with modern convenience within a Georgian cocoon. The panelling behind the bed? Bespoke cabinetry hiding wardrobes and storage all a finger push away. No handles to destroy the illusion. But don’t spend all your time in bed. The ensuite bathroom awaits. Think black steel and glass, handmade tiles, brass and once again a touch of mid century in the repurposed vanity. I think I’d be going to bed earlier at night so I could wake up earlier in the morning to enjoy the space. Canonbury Square by Anna Burles.

 

 

 

Raspberry ripple

Posted on Mon, 2 Apr 2018 by midcenturyjo

I love raspberries especially when they are not quite ripe.  All the promise of that distinctive red but just a little tart, fresh not cloyingly sweet. Fresh on the palette and in a colour palette. But this is no one note wonder. Colours switch to deep moody greys through to rich deep blues and warming neutrals. Eclectic yet timeless, luxurious yet comfortable, industrial yet glamourous.

Mid century, modern and classic

Posted on Thu, 29 Mar 2018 by midcenturyjo

Close your eyes. Imagine a refurbished 80s condominium. Now imagine classic mid century pieces. Add in traditional art works. Pop it all on a shiny shiny floor. Open your eyes. Voilà! Here it is. A fabulous Baltimore Loft by Annapolis, Maryland based Bohl Architects.

 

 

Earthy in Nanoose Bay

Posted on Tue, 20 Mar 2018 by KiM

When you live along the edge of a bay, it only seems right to keep your spaces earthy and neutral. A touch of blue to bring the colour of the water in doesn’t hurt. What a gorgeous, simple project by Vancouver designer Angela Robinson

60’s Beach Pad

Posted on Fri, 9 Mar 2018 by midcenturyjo

It’s almost the weekend baby and I couldn’t think of a more perfect chill out pad than this colourful bohemian getaway designed by Allison Bloom at Dehn Bloom. Fun, fab and family friendly with just enough retro rattan to make my head spin. It’s California coastal cool at its best.
