Designing for connection

Posted on Wed, 26 Mar 2025 by midcenturyjo

“We love people…bringing family together is the reason we design homes. We set a stage for memories – it’s a stage made of emotion more than color and texture. We strive to curate a feeling, not just achieve an aesthetic. Our work goes beyond what the eye can see. We impact how people remember their families and how they celebrate life’s joys. 

Homes are for being: being a family, being hospitable, being there to love one another. The home is a sacred space. We work tirelessly on behalf of our friends to help them carve out their own piece of hallowed ground in this beautiful life. It is a rare and special privilege to share such a powerful gift.”

Haldon House

Posted on Tue, 25 Mar 2025 by KiM

Interior design firm Haldon House is based in Philadelphia and was founded by Autumn Oser and Andre Golsorkhi. Haldon House has cultivated a distinct aesthetic that defies simple definition, yet remains instantly recognizable. Known for masterfully balancing masculine and feminine elements, we design homes that are rich, soulful, and impossible to pin to a specific era – a testament to their enduring and sophisticated design ethos. Every project is approached in a thoughtful and personalized way to create an intentional design that evokes a mood and feels iconically timeless. Haldon House’s careful curation of unexpected materials and objects with artful touches puts the work in an eclectic category all its own. We achieve a timeless sophistication that defines our aesthetic. The end result is an environment that is warm, alluring, layered, and truly iconic.
Timeless sophistication this absolutely is – and I’d throw moody and classic in there as well. It’s as if these spaces have been there for years and will be there for years to come. I am completely obsessed with that deep red scullery and the dining banquette nook that looks like a corner in the cutest British pub. Photos: Jason Varney.

Spring Hill Residence, a heritage-listed home near Brisbane City, underwent a meticulous restoration with interiors driven by Samantha Leigh, reviving its federation-era charm. The design preserves historic elements like pewter and antique brass hardware, arched interiors and seamless transitions between checked marble and timber flooring. Hand-painted joinery, lime plaster walls and a curated mix of vintage and modern furnishings create a rich dialogue between past and present.

Brook Green family house

Posted on Mon, 10 Mar 2025 by midcenturyjo

“A former bedsit, completely overhauled to function as a five bedroom family home across three floors. The client’s brief was ‘relaxed, playful, timeless and colourful’ which could grow as they grew as a family. Working closely with the client, Architect Studio McLeod, and lighting Designer Studio Stileman, we formed a totally new layout which incorporated every functional requirement but with a playful twist.”

Fabulous use of colour, pattern and texture. Layered with antiques and beautiful textiles. A fun, fresh and stylish family home by Natasha Quick.

La Cucina

Posted on Fri, 28 Feb 2025 by midcenturyjo

Inspired by the relaxed elegance of Milan, this inner-city apartment’s kitchen renovation by A.mi reimagines a poorly planned, hidden space dominated by a large structural column. The client’s vision for La Cucina was to create an inviting, theatrical chef’s kitchen that seamlessly connects with the dining area. A striking trumpeted island bench was designed to integrate the column, serving as a central gathering spot where guests can sit, stand and engage with the chef or fellow diners.
