Maison Coursol

Posted on Thu, 7 Nov 2024 by KiM

Located in the Little Burgundy district, at the foot of downtown Montreal, this project responds to the clients’ initial request to expand their home so that their large and vibrant family of four children can enjoy a living space at their scale, while guaranteeing each of them an optimally sized bedroom. The project consists of a renovation and expansion of a building that originally consisted of two small houses with mansard roofs built in the late 19th century.
La Shed can really do no wrong. Each of their projects leaves me wanting a modern take on a historic home, which only happens with their work. Also I would consider this firm one of the best at adapting homes to life with young children. LOVE THIS. Photos: Maxime Brouillet.

A duplex transformation

Posted on Mon, 4 Nov 2024 by midcenturyjo

Netherwood Road in Brook Green, London, is the latest project by Ola Jachymiak Studio transforming the space into a sunlit, Mediterranean-style haven. This 120 m² duplex has been meticulously reconfigured to create comfortable, functional rooms. The upper floor features a lofted kitchen and living room while the lower floor houses two bedrooms, bathrooms and ample storage. Hidden cupboards match the walls for a seamless look, and a large, light-filled master bathroom was achieved with a well-placed window. A neutral beige and white palette highlights the client’s artwork, making this an inviting, personalized oasis.

The loft-style condominiums at 62 Reade Street combine modern living with the preservation of the building’s architectural heritage (once a clock factory). New York-based ODA designed the interiors with a refined, upscale take on loft-style living, using natural materials and a light, airy palette of off-white and beige. White oak floors, exposed beams, fluted glass steel doors and high-end appliances blend modern luxury with original character, honouring the site’s rich past.

“A meticulous renovation of a landmarked two-bedroom, two-bathroom Upper West Side townhouse, we were tasked with creating a feminine, cultivated, and imaginative oasis for a young, eclectic and creative client. We drew inspiration from a Parisian pied-à-terre, along with Ottoman architecture and Spanish design.”

Dark and rich

Dark tones and rich hues….just what the fall season calls for. It’s cozy and warm and calls for the fire to be lit, a tea to be brewing and a blanket ready to snuggle under. Designed by Susannah Holmberg. Photos: Ryan McDonald.
