Intentional is the first word that came to mind when I spotted this new project in Dawes Point, NSW by Duet. It is fairly minimal and each piece is so sculptural and unique, and overall this home has such a sophisticated vibe. This also may be one of the most beautiful kitchens I have ever seen….which is crazy coming from me since I haaaaate white kitchens. It’s the perfect mix of rustic farmhouse and modern.

Working on a Saturday

Posted on Sat, 17 Aug 2024 by midcenturyjo

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish like the offices of Studio AR & D Architects. Check out the double height pivoting window!

Designer’s own

The Hartley House Project by Alison Lewis Interiors is the designer’s family home in Melbourne’s Inner North. The scope of work involved restoring period features of a Californian Bungalow while adding a modern rear extension. Once dark and monochromatic, the home now boasts light-filled spaces with warm white, wood grain, and natural stone. Soft green, burgundy, and terrazzo accents bring interest, while greenery adds movement to the revitalized bungalow.

Juan Cano I by Pérez Palacios Arquitectos Asociados is a townhouse project in Mexico City, designed to optimize a narrow plot of 6m by 30m. The design prioritizes vertical space, creating functional areas with a smaller footprint. Existing trees were preserved, shaping the architecture. A black facade blends the house into its urban surroundings, while light interior tones and warm wood accents create a cozy atmosphere. The project balances built and unbuilt spaces, offering innovative solutions for urban living in a growing city.

Olivia Outred

Posted on Thu, 15 Aug 2024 by KiM

Olivia Outred is a London based designer whose portfolio is delightful and she has yet to be featured on our wee blog so how about a little intro?
While traditional decorating techniques, classic furniture and antiques are a feature of her work there is a freshness and a pared-back modernity to it. Olivia is a confessed colour enthusiast and lover of great art and unexpected furniture, which when combined, result in stand-alone spaces that appear to have developed over time. Her interiors are full of life and character, each piece of furniture is worthy of conversation and each room feels harmoniously coordinated but not staged.  Olivia and her team bring colour, textiles and antiques into their designs, often using treasured items their clients have collected over the years along with new pieces they have found.
