Bucolic setting meets monumental meets modern farmhouse. With its midcentury sensibility the interiors of this Mandeville Canyon house by Jamie Bush explore natural materials and textures, the artisanal and the bespoke, volume and mass, inside and out.

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.

I don’t know what this brownstone looked like before but I sure am loving the after! Jennifer Acito of DAMA + WOOD made these spaces elegant in a classic way, and I can see them lasting for years to come. Photos: Rikki Snyder

Woollahra Terrace by Madeleine Blanchfield Architects blends original character with contemporary family living. Transforming the original dark residence, the vibrant and fresh design emphasises existing period details within a modern context. Arched doors connect the new living space, echoing the original brick doorway motif. A sunlit kitchen, framed by steel windows, centres the layout. Monochrome interiors are offset by greenery-framed views while the austere concrete and white exteriors contrast with a lush, intentionally flowerless garden.

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
