You’d think that after all this time fully immersed in images of beautiful rooms, or should that be drowning in inspiration, I would be jaded. Nothing impresses. Been there. Done that. Ho hum. Next. But you know what? I’m not. I can never get enough. I’m always hunting, searching, devouring. Like today. Today it’s the work of photographer David Ross. Beautiful, inspiring. Drink it in. I’m replete.

Close your eyes and imagine the quintessential Palm Springs pad. Low lines and clean lines. White and bright. Hard and cool. Glass and grass. Glitz and golf. Midcentury and modern. Pool and so so cool. With both feet in a glamorous past take a leap into the future. Spring. Palm Springs. The Eldorado Residence by Emily Summers Design Associates.

She describes herself as Los Angeles based Portrait and Interiors Photographer. I describe her as genius. Her work is crisp and simple yet packed with everything you need to know. Or should I say everything you need to covet especially if your thing is retro. Beautiful use of positive and negative space and colour as punctuation point. Take me away to a retrolicious land Beth Coller.

Sorry for the pun. I couldn’t resist. Just like I can’t resist these interiors designed by Luis Laplace and his team. Modern, international, artful and art filled, successful and beautiful. Paris based Laplace& Co.

Mix me a martini while I kick off my kitten heels. Bossa nova on the turntable and Bitossi on the shelves. Fabulous for more than 50 years this midcentury dame just needs her make up tidied up, her do back teased and she’ll be a smoldering all over again. The North Caulfield, Melbourne house I mean. Not me. Sold hopefully to someone who loves the house not just a developer who wants the block. Link here while it lasts.
