Home and decor in Singapore

Posted on Wed, 11 Aug 2010 by KiM

Back in April I blogged about a magazine from Singapore called Home & Decor that our wee blog was featured in. My list of favourite shelter magazines from around the world is slowly growing, and this one tops the list. Singaporeans are some super stylin’ folks! They seem to love colour, light airy spaces, and modern furnishings. Here are some photos from their website that really caught my eye.

Mel Yates

Posted on Thu, 5 Aug 2010 by midcenturyjo

How about a power house of photography today? How about a guy that consistently snaps fabulous hard core room porn pics that are guaranteed to feed our addiction? I can’t believe we haven’t featured Mel Yates before. You’ll know his work. Think Abigail Ahern, Kelly Hoppen and Graham & Brown, editorial work for House & Garden, Living Etc and Elle Decoration. It’s a passion and it shows!

  

  

  

  

     

  

Brett Mickan

Posted on Tue, 3 Aug 2010 by midcenturyjo

One moment it’s OTT, the next it’s cool, calm and minimal. It’s mix and match combining to make a stylish whole. Interior designer Brett Mickan uses colour passionately and his monochromatic spaces are just as strong as his bold colour combinations. Sydney based, he has worked in Florida and this influence shows in his work. There is an Australian sensibility but a Miami bite to the execution. Whether it’s audacious or refined Mickan has it covered. Think serious fun more than just serious.

James Braund

Posted on Mon, 2 Aug 2010 by midcenturyjo

Hello and welcome to a new week on Desire to Inspire. I’m so excited about today’s photographer James Braund. Melbourne based Braund captures Aussie homes that are just too cool. Whether high end or real life and really stylish. Midcentury madness anyone? There’s colour and light and life. If photography is inspirational and aspiration then James Braund has me wanting it all.

  

  

  

  

  

  

Meg Braff

Back in ’07 Jo blogged about the remarkable portfolio of interior designer Meg Braff, mentionning her passion for color, fabric and pattern. Well, things haven’t changed much in almost 3 years, as her portfolio is abundant with vibrant and fresh designs that are awe-inspiring. I particularly love her Asian touches. GORG!!
