Modern and timeless, classic and magical. Beautiful homes in stunning locations. Light and landscape and genius loci. One of a kind, architectural yet art. Calm and assured, powerful and intelligent but always about simplicity and beauty. Welcome to the work of architects Bosworth Hoedemaker. Naturally Pacific Northwest. Naturally.

Andrea Chu is an amazing photographer whose photos are simple yet powerful. She captures the spirit of each space, whether dark and moody or bright and airy. And I love that she started into the business by stealing her brother’s camera one afternoon to capture an afternoon of skateboarding and never returned it. 🙂

I always find myself drawn to art deco apartments when I am scrolling through real estate listings. I love a building with good bones, architectural features kept intact, joyfully brought into the present but not hacked apart and modernised until there is no personality left. I love  the streamlined features of art deco homes mixed modern furniture. I love this groundfloor two bedder. Sunny and new with history and style. Need an apartmenbt in Bondi? For sale here while the link lasts.

Isabelle Juy is the creative brain behind L’Atelier d’Archi, an interior architecture firm based in Paris. She has designed several hotels, but I am really taken with the homes and apartments she has created. Regardless of the style of the spaces, there is an underlying rustic touch to the architecture that is so appealing. I could totally live in any of these spaces. 

ix design is an interior design and architecture firm based in New York that I recently came across while doing some creative googling. Directors Gary Spanier and Michael Wood only have a couple of residential proejcts under their belt but both are really well executed. A perfect blend of modern and contemporary where the resulting vibe is classy without being pretentious, and completely liveable with impeccable attention to detail. This project is a West Village loft located within a structure built in 1931 as a truck garage then converted to condominiums in 1983, the apartment’s immediate design challenges included an awkward geometry, limited natural light and outdated décor. In response to the owner’s desire for an inviting, warm retreat, a natural walnut was used throughout to anchor and reinforce the unity of the space. Juxtaposed against a bright architectural envelope, plush, engaging fabrics and contemporary lighting infuse a dash of luxury while classic modern furniture pieces provide functionality and a simple sophistication.
