Nancy Riesco and Rebecca Lapres are interior designers from Vancouver who whip up contemporary, timeless spaces that are so fresh, youthful and pleasing to the eye that it’s no wonder their work has been showcased in a bunch of Canadian magazines. Superb portfolio, including these favourites…

I have dreamt about having a tree house for as long as I can remember. Living in this San Diego home by architects Taal Safdie and Ricardo Rabines would absolutely be a dream come true. To look out your windows and all you see are trees and sky……

Not my ordinary stalking today. I was drawn in a little further than usual. I found this striking black house in the Melbourne suburb of Armadale. Yes nice. Usual real estate pics. I like this house. Oh a video. Click and… wow…. I want this house. I’m hooked. I need this house. Oh it’s own website. More pics. Just icing on the cake. Now I want to go to an open house in a city at the other end of the country and nose around someone else’s house and pretend it’s mine. If I had the money I would be so tempted to buy. Good house but great campaign Marshall White! The link to the listing is here. The house’s website is here.

Considered, pared back, eclectic contemporary. IF Architecture takes a holistic approach to their designs with an emphasis on the marriage of exteriors and interiors, architecture and interior design. Their houses tell a simple story of good design, good use and a good looks. But it’s not all clean contemporary lines and a minimalist aesthetic. Their commercial work reveals their showman side. Statement spaces that speak of drama and style.

Sometimes less is more. In this case it’s not less house, but less detail. This is the Cube House by Marcio Kogan of StudioMK27. Amidst the lush grennery at the edge of the city sits this cube, and it needs no more. Indoor/outdoor living to take advantage of the views, the pool, the property. Less is definitively more. (P.S. More projects by StudioMK27 here and here)
