Beach house

Posted on Thu, 3 Sep 2015 by KiM

There is nothing like a really large house beautifully decorated right on the beach to get your heart pumping. This beach pad by Brown Design Group is everything you could want – tranquil earthy colours and a casual vibe that is perfect for the surroundings. Bonus to-die-for view. (In case you missed my features of their work last week – here and here)

The kitchen love continues

Posted on Wed, 2 Sep 2015 by midcenturyjo

Simple and beautifully made. Shouldn’t that be our mantra for the pieces we live with in our homes? Like this collaboration between deVOL Kitchens and designer and wood man, Sebastian Cox. That black kitchen cabinet makes my heart sing. You can see more on the process over on my page.

 

Laid back luxury

Posted on Thu, 13 Aug 2015 by midcenturyjo

High end yet down to earth. Modern lines and a sense of tradition. Organic textures and the colours of nature informing the palette. This beautiful home in Menlo Park, California by Jennifer Robin Interiors is all about earthy sophistication and laid back luxury.

A second look

I get excited when I come across photos of a home we have featured, but a different rendition. It’s interesting to see how homes evolve with with time. This is the home of Spanish decorator Serge Castella, that Jo featured back in 2012. This time around it is more grey than brown, and a bit darker overall. I think I prefer this version, as I am a sucker for grey and black.

Yes still French

I’m still French in my dreams. I’m still living in a fabulously chic French apartment. Faded grandeur, flea market finds, an easy Parisian glamour. Yes still French. Apartment in the historic Place des Vosges by Marianne Tiegen.
