It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend then it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Danielle Frankel, Los Angeles by Studio Augusta Hoffman.

Modern classic

Posted on Fri, 7 Nov 2025 by midcenturyjo

The New Classic Residence by STUDIOJOS, a Sydney-based interior architecture studio, strikes a balance between classic detailing and modernist architecture. The design offers a fresh take on tradition, combining timeless materials and elegant forms with contemporary touches. Layers of texture and tone bring a sense of calm and permanence, with each piece thoughtfully chosen to create a home that feels evolved and personal—an effortless expression of beauty, function and individuality.

Timeless harmony

Posted on Wed, 5 Nov 2025 by midcenturyjo

Designed for a young couple seeking a refined New York pied-à-terre, this residence within The Ansonia merges three apartments into one cohesive home. And Studio drew inspiration from the building’s architectural heritage, introducing archways and custom millwork that echo its historic details. An oval window anchors a bespoke desk nook while arched kitchen windows frame Hudson River views. Every detail was considered to evoke timeless harmony between classic craftsmanship and contemporary living.
