Global modern cool

Posted on Mon, 15 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

“These D.C.-area transplants from Brooklyn wanted to take the model-home vibe out of their spacious new abode. Custom and vintage furniture, tons of texture, and well-placed color help achieve that goal. The homeowners also wanted the home to reflect their world travels, which has been expressed throughout with globally sourced pieces and earthy, natural materials.”

A social retreat for a modern couple

Posted on Fri, 5 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

The clients, a soon-to-be-married couple in their late 20s, had just bought their first home together and desired a space reflecting their adventurous tastes. Inspired by the private social clubs of London, the design aimed to create a magnetic ambience akin to the best hotel lobbies, perfect for cocktails and conversations. The home features curated original art, vibrant plush furniture, and a cohesive colour palette that flows from room to room. With eclectic art and vintage pieces, the home exudes warmth and personality. Highlights include a vintage Italian dresser converted into a powder room vanity and a moody, midnight-themed primary bedroom with an eclectic mix of art. The result is a stylish, welcoming space for lounging and entertaining. B Street in Bentonville, Arkansas by Meet West.

An 18th-century Georgian home in the Cotswolds

Posted on Fri, 28 Jun 2024 by KiM

This 18th Georgian home in the Cotswolds has a lot of “me” in it. It can’t decide if it wants to be muted or colourful, traditional or modern. So the result is an eclectic blend of all kinds of good things in one home, and it is cheerful and inviting. And now I want to hunt down an antique Bessarabian rug. Designed by Morrisstudio.

Victorian home revival

Posted on Thu, 27 Jun 2024 by midcenturyjo

This warm, tranquil home features ancient stone, reclaimed wood floors and richly coloured tiles complemented by opulent wallpaper and antique lighting. Bespoke cabinetry maximizes space with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, nursery shelves, and bedroom wardrobes. The full renovation of this compact Victorian house revealed stunning period details by removing false walls and boxed-in fireplaces. Precision planning included new electrics, plumbing, and fixtures, creating a cohesive layout that reflects the owners’ personalities. The Victorian Renovation by Emily Dobbs Interiors.

YSG‘s latest project in Byron Bay saw an exposed brick residence with heavy timber elements reinvigorated and infused with seventies inspiration. The design features checkered patterns with terracotta pavers, cork and porcelain tiles, Kimberley sandstone, travertine and marble. Custom finishes, including chrome details and timber privacy devices, add intricacy. Vintage elements range from fifties Italian to seventies styles enhanced by handwoven African wall hangings and embossed wallpaper.
