Eclectic and colourful in Madrid

Posted on Mon, 18 Mar 2019 by KiM

I am crushing so hard on this home designed by María Lladó. It is eclecticism at its finest where every corner has something unexpected and each piece tells a story. That curved sofa in the first 2 photos is incredible and something similar to what I’ve been wanting for my living room.

Modern and moody

A contemporary addition to a grand Victorian house is a moody, sleek and sophisticated cave. But before you think heavy and dark walls of glass draw your eyes to lush garden courtyard spaces while allowing light in. Malvern House by Melbourne-based architectural studio Figureground.

Un appartement à Paris

Posted on Wed, 13 Mar 2019 by midcenturyjo

It’s minimum fuss and maximum fun in this stylish apartment in Paris’ 19th arrondissement. The renovation is a collaboration between Melbourne-based interior architecture practice Studio Wonder and Laurent Soler. Trés chic n’est ce pas?

A designer’s studio

Back with more from Jenika Kurtz Cuadra as she happens to have the cutest studio that she recently completed so I had to share that too. If you ever thought painting a brick fireplace in bubblegum pink was a crazy idea, think again!!! (Photos: Amy Bartlam)

Stalking 1

Posted on Tue, 5 Mar 2019 by midcenturyjo

I’m stalking in one of my favourite Sydney suburbs Surry Hill. It’s a tiny enclave right next door to the CBD full of character terraces, cool shopping and an almost endless choice of bars, cafes and restaurants. This completely re-imagined terrace has been all but gut renovated creating 5.1m ceilings and walls of concrete and cedar. Modern living hiding behind a historic facade. All that concrete may come in handy as the house sits on a busy road and noise might just be a problem. A little greenery out the back would help soften the concrete canyon effect over time. Link here while it lasts.
