Oh yeah! That’s the way to finish the working week. Remarkable refurb of a 70s home by Auckland based Dorrington Atcheson Architects.

Island life

Posted on Thu, 15 Jan 2015 by midcenturyjo

Raised above the dunes to take advantage of the view, the breezes and the lingering sunsets is a wooden box of a house. Honest in its construction. Thoughtful in its materials. Beautiful in its simplicity. Shelter Island house by Tamarkin Co.

Ewelina’s latest spaces from Poland

Posted on Wed, 7 Jan 2015 by KiM

 It has been a few years since Polish interior designer Ewelina Makosa shared some of her designs with us (here) so I was stoked to receive an email from her over the holidays. It seems she is still making waves over in the Polish design scene (or perhaps lack thereof) and beautifying spaces with elegance and class. How I love this little kitchen. ALOT. (Is that a black sink?!?!) A second project of Ewelina’s is after the jump.

 

 

Colour blocks

Posted on Tue, 6 Jan 2015 by midcenturyjo

A simple modern family home with mid century riffs. Mono-pitch roof, walls of glass, colour blocks and sunken lounge. It’s about catching the sun and taking in the views. Sleeping zones at either end of the 4m wide building are connected by living areas that open to a sunny patio. Easterbrook House in Titirangi, Auckland by Dorrington Atcheson Architects.

Hipster house?

Posted on Mon, 5 Jan 2015 by midcenturyjo

Maybe but I still love it. North Fitzroy extension by Melbourne based Pleysier Perkins.

P.S.When did hipster become a derogatory term? I must have missed the original memo because I’ve always wanted to be one but never quite made the grade 😉
