Buenos Aires based architect Maria Eugenia Carranza of Estudio Carranza emailed us about a couple of her latest projects. This kitchen and bathroom renovation was my favourite. Any kitchen with a black floor and white subway tile with dark grout is going to win me over. Throw in a bathroom with beautiful, bold floral wallpaper and I am left shouting YES! YES! YES! followed by a fist pump.

Back in June ’14 Jo featured the really beautiful Hicks Street townhouse by New York firm Kevin Darkan Architect. I thought today I would share the Hicks Street carriage house. This totally changes my perspective on what a carriage house is. This ain’t no outbuilding! WHOA! The painted brick, exposed ceiling beams, skylight, and ah mah gawd the kitchen!! What a dream home! (Speaking of dream homes, I’m trying to convert mine into something I can maybe call a dream one day – check out my next post in a few hours. Slowly but surely I’m filling it with things I love.)

I am dying a slow death over this total gem of an apartment. It is EVERYTHING a Paris apartment should be. AND MORE. Featured on The Socialite Family you can catch all the juicy details there. If you’re going to take over your grandmother’s apartment and keep the tradition alive THIS is how you do it – by working with all of the jaw-dropping original architecture and adding in vintage mixed with iconic modern elements (with help from architect friend Samantha Hauvette).

The Ploum sofa by the Bouroullec brothers is one of the coolest sofas of all time IMHO.

Up there with the Ploum is the Togo. YAAASSSS!

Also by the Bouroullec brothers are these Flos AIM pendants. I have one in my living room and I want a zillion more.

Can’t have a funky Paris apartment without some tumbling block tile. *SWOON*

Is it a minimalist’s dream kitchen or the lazy cook’s ultimate “shove the mess behind the door” daydream? Either way this ultra sleek, ultra chic Sydney kitchen is a standout for not standing out. The precision joinery is blowing my mind. The Hidden Kitchen by Minosa Design.

Clean lines and a classic colour palette of black and white warmed with wood tones combine to create a stylish contemporary home in Melbourne by design firm Hunter & Richards. But it’s the details that take it to the next level. Love the stone and stainless steel kitchen and the bespoke joinery throughout.
