House of Otto

Posted on Mon, 22 Jan 2024 by KiM

A range hood and headboard created from architectural salvage from France. A French sideboard converted into an island. A lacquered yellow butlers pantry. A curved plaster staircase. A speakeasy behind a hidden door with a massive bar. A gentleman’s office hidden behind a wall panel in the dressing room. Annie Brahler of Euro Trash is the absolute queen of drama and this home is dramatic like I’ve never seen. Her jaw-dropping use of European salvage is what really sets her apart from other designers and her lack of fear and always stepping outside the box is really inspiring. I’m obsessed.

Rancho Mirage

This modernist home by Josh Greene Design plays with 70s nostalgia and desert colours of ochre, pinks and browns. Custom furniture mixes with mid-century classics while monumental stone anchors it all. An oasis in an inhospitable terrain all about functionality, warmth, refinement, and comfort.

Modern Colonial in Minneapolis

Posted on Thu, 18 Jan 2024 by KiM

Similar to the last project by Yond Interiors I shared, this one also features lots of beautiful muted colours with a bit of a darkness that creates such a mood. There is again a warmth that is really wonderful and this takes “modern colonial” to a place that I think is really timeless and versatile and speaks to me on so many levels. Photos: Erin Little

What was once a boxy, cramped 1920s lakehouse located among Ohio’s Portage Lakes, is now a swanky residence for a retired “single, older gentleman” who is I betcha going to find himself an equally swanky partner now that he has these cool digs! A bit mad men and a bit roaring ’20s is where Tanner Sammons and Jennifer Laouari of Morgan Madison Design took this home and it is possibly one of the classiest lakehouses I’ve ever seen.

“Purposeful yet uncontrived, raw yet polished, structured yet whimsical, much like nature itself.”

Think texture and natural materials, modern married with organic, patina and subtle pattern. Mulberry Modern, a Michigan house by Sarah Sherman Samuel.
