It is hard to believe this was once a school. This modern, bright and airy loft in Amsterdam is now home to a family of five. The teacher’s lounge became bedrooms and the classroom became the living space. The kitchen is fantastic! I especially love the wall of open storage over the sink cabinet section. Such a fun place to raise kids in. No worries about the floors getting scratched up (it’s concrete) or one of the kids hiding somewhere and wrecking havoc (their toys are stashed in the play area under the stairs).

“Why, oh why, have two dining tables so close to each other?” we hear readers lament on occasion on the blog. “It’s a bit pretentious.” “They will never use them.” “It’s all for show.” Well not in this kitchen. They’re for table tennis. (And large dinner parties and for the 14 children they have. Just kidding.) Wonderful kitchen. Wonderful home in Battersea, London via Airspace Locations.

White kitchen envy up in this post! The stools above and below are incredible, albeit not very practical for a kitchen but who the hell cares?! Auckland, New Zealand based McIntosh Moorman Interior Design is all about textiles, textures and patterns that add drama and personality to their spaces. Like those stools. Did you see those stools?! 😉

I knew it was familiar. I knew I’d seen it before. Not the living area. No, turn around. It’s the kitchen. And that table. And those windows, those glorious windows. We all love clicking through the listings on our favourite location sites. It’s a bit like real estate stalking. I’d never seen a house before that I recognised though until I saw this place. They filmed Jamie’s 30-Minute Meals here. I must confess that my attention was only half given over to Jamie Oliver’s cooking whenever I watched the program. I was scoping out the kitchen and trying to imagine what was outside those wonderful windows. Now I know. Faith House via Airspace Locations.
