Avian Apartment

Posted on Fri, 5 Jun 2020 by midcenturyjo

“An exquisite refurbishment of a Brisbane apartment perched above the city skyline. Echoing Seidler’s sentiments within the architecture, form & function evolved through a play on curves, cantilevers, materiality & art as an integrated expression of ingenuity.”

The Harry Seidler building in Brisbane is iconic but the reimagining of this apartment high above the city is a perfect balance between bold new living and sympathetic referencing of Seidler’s design aesthetic. Avian Apartment by Alicia Holgar.

A considered simplicity

Posted on Wed, 3 Jun 2020 by midcenturyjo

“A calm, refined atmosphere that celebrates the clients’ personalities has been created through the blending of styles within the shell of the existing home. Considered simplicity with mid-century influences were the driving force behind the design. A luxurious and minimal interior has been created through layered materials and textures.”

Considered simplicity – it’s a beautiful design concept. One I would hope I could adopt. Lindfield House by Sydney-based Daniel Boddam.

A fine balancing act

Posted on Tue, 26 May 2020 by midcenturyjo

It’s all about balance. A balance between crisp and modern and rustic and weathered. Rough versus smooth. A hint of scandi with a dose of Aussie. Light versus dark. Formally structured and sensuous and tactile. A fine balancing act indeed. Hunters Hill House by Handelsmann + Khaw.

Oh to have a light filled, art filled, three bedroom, muliple reception room, terrace gardened, super stylish Upper East Side apartment. Oh to have a sleek lined, minimalist chic home. Oh to have the wherewithal to afford one! A dream New York apartment by Timothy Brown Studio.

It’s about bespoke details, high style and comfort. About layers of texture and materials and meaning. It’s  about “the creation of spaces that nurture the family and provide a beautiful backdrop for life’s memories to unfold.” Nichols Hills by Oklahoma-based Sara Crooks Design.
