Krista Keltanen

A big thanks to Nina for introducing us to the work of Finnish photographer Krista Keltanen. She is super talented, especially at post processing. Love the deep contrast and brightness of her photos. Gorgeous. 

(thanks to the photo above I’m seriously about to go get a can of black paint from the basement and paint my backsplash)

Anonymous Architects

Posted on Wed, 15 May 2013 by KiM

“It’s hard to spot an Anonymous house. And that’s the way we like it.”
That is what drew me to Anonymous Architects, based in Los Angeles. Their designs are unfussy, functional and unpretentious. For simple folks who don’t like to mess around nor feel the need to show off to their neighbours.

I need…

just a little bit…

more colour! Fabulous interiors from neutral to super saturated by Landy Gardner Interiors.

Simon Upton’s loft for sale!!!

Posted on Thu, 9 May 2013 by KiM

The kind folks over at London estate agency Domus Nova sent over some photos of a SWEET converted warehouse in Notting Hill for sale – that happens to be superstar interior and portrait photographer Simon Upton. It’s a beautiful space and Simon’s decor is impeccable – love the ethnic touches and mixes of eras with the vintage furnishings. Here are a bit of details about it: A private ground floor entrance leads to a double-height entrance hall lit by huge overhead skylights. From here a staircase leads to a vast living space which is pitched to double-height in the centre. This impressive open plan room spans nearly 50 feet in length and measures over 1000 square feet. In the centre, a sky-lit mezzanine creates a sizeable master bedroom with further space for a home office area. The white washed room is floored by lime washed ash wood throughout and is lit by sky lights and large industrial style windows. The property further comprises a second bedroom, a family bathroom with a traditional roll-top bath and a useful utility room. At the top is a private roof terrace… I’m going to go out on a limb and say that Simon must have taken these photos. 😉 (Link HERE)

Stalking Paddington

Posted on Thu, 2 May 2013 by midcenturyjo

Once upon a time, in a land far away, a little blogger girl was too busy to play. Her favourite online game that is. Real estate stalking. I have been so swamped with a couple of secret projects that I have no time to waste on the pleasures of virtual gawking and stalking. No time to peep through the virtual net curtains. Thank goodness for people who are just as addicted to the noble pursuit as I. (That’s you Andrea.) Look at this lovely bright, white delight in Sydney’s Paddington she found for me. Small but very stylish. The courtyard is fab, the dining room cute, the bath just wonderful and the wine cellar (!) crazy. I can never keep wine long enough to cellar but I just might if this terrace house was mine. Link here while it lasts.
