Hilary Robertson’s home

Posted on Tue, 1 Apr 2014 by KiM

You may remember Hilary Robertson‘s Brooklyn brownstone from the cover of a Living Etc. magazine a while back. I swear this home will be forever etched in my memory as one of my favourites of all time. To my shock I realized we had never featured it in its entirety here. I just had to. It is so damn gorgeous, and almost everything in it is a thrift/flea market/antique market find. So dreamy. So inspirational. (Photos via Hilary’s website and Trevor Tondro for the NY Times)

The lightest of grey

Posted on Thu, 6 Mar 2014 by midcenturyjo

A soft, muted beauty, cozy like a favourite old sweater, stylishly simple and simply stylish. If I loved Paul Massey‘s Cornwall home then it’s obvious that I’m head over heels for his Primrose Hill, London flat. An amazing photographer with a wonderful eye who could easily put down the camera and take up design.

A mid-century stunner

This home is a lesson in picking the perfect wall colours. With a distinctive mid-century feel, San Francisco’s Senalee Kapelevich of SVK Interior Design hit the nail on the head in each room. It is the perfect starting point for the homeowners to then add some personal touches. Loving that pink!

Grey matter

My obsession for grey is as persistent as ever. It’s soothing, warm, and is difficult to get it wrong. Because it’s SO RIGHT.

I recently stumbled upon the portfolio of Russian architect Igor Sirotov and was immediately taken with his designs. I can’t tell if these are computer generated or just exteme photoshopped but I don’t really care. This home is all about drama and open spaces and lots of concrete (a bit cold) and the coolest lounge pit in the living room (I may have a slight obsession with lounge pits). Many friends would be required to thoroughly enjoy this home, because it demands some serious partying.
