Concrete and wood

Posted on Mon, 17 Aug 2015 by KiM

Concrete, wood, brick, floor to ceiling windows….sounds like the making of a sweet apartment I would say. This space by Brazilian architecture firm Play Arquitetura (the folks that brought you the cat apartment) just needs a few rugs to warm up the space and a few more accessories and it is pretty much on point. 

A family home by Lucyna Kołodziejska

Posted on Wed, 12 Aug 2015 by KiM

Lucyna Kołodziejska is a decorating machine! I featured one of her latest projects a couple of weeks ago, and here is another! It is a home for a young family (a couple with 2 boys) about 25 kms from Gdansk, who wanted a space to entertain, and to showcase their poster collection. I really love this one – neutrals with accents in black and blue throughout the home make it very cohesive. This is one of my favourite projects of Lucyna’s

An apartment by Tavares Duayer Arquitetura

Posted on Tue, 11 Aug 2015 by KiM

I came across this apartment by São Paulo architecture firm Tavares Duayer because BLACK, BRICK, CONCRETE, SUBWAY TILES…all of which results in a really cool industrial, masculine-vibe space. The black windows and doors are a nice touch too. The decor is well done too, but I would change out the light fixtures everywhere but the enamel kitchen pendants.

A concrete, glass and steel butterfly alighting on a Californian meadow. Wings spread in the sun. Light on the land despite its monumental materials. An owner’s dream. An architect’s creation. The Butterfly house by Feldman Architecture.
