This home is WILD! This is what you get when an architect in the 60’s designs himself a house. One of the great post-war Modern houses in London, Housden House was designed and built by architect Brian Housden for himself and his family between 1963-65. Presented to the market in beautifully original condition, this is the first time that the house has been available for sale. The concept is a clear demonstration of Housden’s understanding of pioneering European modernism, sharing many principles with the Rietveld Schröder House in Utrecht and Pierre Chareau’s Maison de Verre in Paris. The façade, a mix of protruding concrete platforms and glass bricks, belies the scale of the house, which is best captured from the rear. The back of the house is almost completely glazed with glass bricks, flooding the internal space with a warm westerly light at every level. The house is in fascinatingly original condition, having been lovingly maintained by the Housden family throughout its history. You can read all of the details as this house is for sale on The Modern House (and now under offer).

Some hump day eye candy for your viewing pleasure by Australian stylist and photographer Kara Hynes. Curated and captured to perfection. I want nothing more than to chill out on one of the bar stools above and down some yummy ice cold cocktails.

Once again Jean Stoffer Design shows her love of blue in this beautiful Michigan home. Alongside the blue, brass accents really glam things up and WHOA her tile choices are spot on here. And the exterior is absolutely gorgeous too as a bonus. All of the black detail really modernizes it.

I put it out there on Instagram over the weekend that I hate the colour blue. And because of that I repainted the walls in my kitchen from blue to a deep brownish red. Also to note I did comment that I occasionally come across a blue cabinet kitchen that I think works really well. This home featuring a blue cabinet kitchen by Michigan-based designer Jean Stoffer Design are one of those “works really well” situations. In fact throughout the home are accents in various shades of blue and I quite like it.

B-b-b-b-b-blue. Harry Nuriev of Crosby Studios has taken his signature pastels and brass accents and punched them up a notch with a statement royal blue in his own Manhattan apartment. Could you? Would you? Are you feeling blue? I am! Fun, fresh and definitely in your face.
