Delicious colours in a Haussmannian apartment

Posted on Tue, 3 Dec 2024 by KiM

This 60 sqm Haussmannian apartment in the 18th arrondissement of Montmartre is an absolute delight. The main living space is neutral with a touch of elegance (and some smokey mirrors add to the faux grandeur), and then the bedroom area is awash in enveloping deep shades of burgundy/mauve/dusty pink. Perfection. Designed by Lauranne Elise Schmitt. Photos: Alice Mesguich.

A bright and colourful kitchen

Posted on Mon, 2 Dec 2024 by midcenturyjo

This kitchen renovation designed by Annabel Grimshaw transformed a cramped Georgian space into a vibrant, functional heart of the home. A modest two-meter garden extension created room for a kitchen island, dining area and compact utility room, dramatically improving the layout. Expansive metal-framed glazing floods the space with light, adding a contemporary touch to the historic architecture. DeVol joinery takes centre stage, complemented by personal touches like curated fabrics and artwork. The result is a warm, timeless and inviting space for family and friends to gather. (Keep an eye out at the end for the cutest little laundry.)

A vibrant revival in Brussels

Posted on Thu, 28 Nov 2024 by midcenturyjo

I’m sharing another home by Isabel Gómez Studio but this time it’s a light-filled and colourful confection, a stunning marriage of old and new. This project involved completely renovating a traditional Brussels townhouse. Reflecting the studio’s Emotional Luxury® philosophy, the design once again emphasizes the emotional connections between the design and the client. The designers have crafted bold, eclectic and sophisticated interiors with their signature custom joinery and bespoke furnishings all the while respecting the heritage of the building. A luxurious yet livable home that merges timeless artistry with personal comfort.

Colour and pattern as only the Brits do

Posted on Mon, 25 Nov 2024 by KiM

Quintessentially English as we like to say. This home is filled with the prettiest colours in each room and patterned headboards and curtains in the bedrooms are a must. And the only way to go is to follow suit in the bathrooms too. Designed by Olivine Design. Photos: Milo Brown.

Blending tradition with bold design

Posted on Mon, 18 Nov 2024 by midcenturyjo

“A colourful, inspirational, and deeply personal family home set over four floors in a Notting Hill terrace for a lovely and creative young family. The traditional country house vernacular has been toughened up and given a little edge with an explosion of colour, pattern and a scattering of contemporary furniture and fittings.”
