Oak Tree House

Posted on Tue, 29 Oct 2019 by midcenturyjo

This modern extension to an Edwardian era house has resulted in something very special. Think contemporary sculpture meets colour blocking, new connections between inside and out and restraint versus drama. The Oak House (named for the mature oak that dominates the site) by Melbourne based Kennedy Nolan.

Vintage charm in a 1930’s home in London

Posted on Sun, 27 Oct 2019 by KiM

This 1930’s semi-detached, 6 bedroom home in London is something I can definitively get behind as it is filled with some of my favourite things. Mid-century vintage furnishings, an epic plant wall, crittall windows, ballsy floral stair carpet and dreamy tile bathrooms. Available as a location home via Shoot Factory.

It should be obvious to you dear reader that my house drug of choice is the Victorian terrace. Yes, yes I know that they are narrow and dark and a lot of times are screaming out for a sympathetic modernisation but I can’t help it. I’m hooked. I’ve been real estate strolling scrolling and I’d like to get my grubby little fingers on this one. Great job so far and lots of potential for even more improvements. For sale here while the link lasts.

For sale in Clerkenwell, London an elegant Grade II-listed Georgian townhouse in whitest white with simple lines and  filled with light. The current owners have furnished it with mid century classics and a touch of Scandinavian flair, restrained, refined with a hint of drama from blood red drapes and an exploding mobile. For sale in Clerkenwell, London a beautiful dream if only your pockets are deep enough.  Guilford Street for sale by The Modern House.

 

A little bit of California in London

Posted on Wed, 9 Oct 2019 by midcenturyjo

The owners missed Los Angeles so interior designers Maria Lindgren & Adele Lonergan of Covet & Noir created a little bit of California for them in this London home. A clever mix of new and vintage furniture, art and accessories it is full of light with a neutral yet warm palette. Monochrome has never popped so much.
