The designers knew they had a gem in the rough. The apartment in a functionalist building was derelict but as they stripped it back they discovered a ribbed ceiling and massive concrete columns. Reconfiguring the layout the main public area is an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area that embraces its industrial elements while softening them ever so slightly for family living.

A tiny apartment becomes a jewel box

Posted on Mon, 31 Oct 2022 by KiM

In the end, this 25 mstudette turned out to be generous and clever. It has been reinvented with a space that revolves around a bedroom with a dressing room hidden by its glass roof and opening onto a small bathroom. The entrance hall with its small desk, the living room with its two benches and the kitchen with its work surface worthy of a large one, take place around this room. Once the false ceiling was removed, the flat gained in height and the play of perspectives pushed back the walls. In keeping with the principle of marking the different living spaces with different colours, 4 shades are used side by side to give the sensation of wandering through a lively and multiple space.
It is evident designer Marianne Evennou had a lot of fun figuring out what to do with this tiny apartment and I am in awe of how large it feels and how much glamour it now exudes. The beautiful colours are the icing on the cake. (Photos: Grégory Timsit)

A ribbon of blue

A slice of blue rises through this Slovakian home’s open-plan living, dining and kitchen. Grounded by a concrete plinth containing a fireplace and storage the steel stairs lead to a sleeping loft. Steel posts and beams continue the colour accent while blue doors lead the eye out to the view. Contemporary living with references to a more rustic past with exposed timber ceiling and painted brick. Atelier režiséra Strekov by Bratislava-based Benko Benkova.

It turns out Ashley Montgomery can do neutrals REALLY well also. And this is her lake house. And it’s stunning and everything a lake house should be. Also please everyone take a very close look at this island that has CURVED ENDS! Absolutely brilliant. (Photos: Lauren Miller)

Forest House

Posted on Thu, 27 Oct 2022 by KiM

I found the perfect little vacation cottage Airbnb. Located in Tiny, Ontario and just a few minutes from Balm Beach. Forest House sleeps 6, has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, a gorgeous kitchen, and is located on an acre with a stream. The decor is casual and chic and frankly pretty elevated for Ontario cottage expectations. LOVE this. Design: Stay Here. Photos: Lauren Miller.
