Setting the stage

This home in Chicago is an exceptional example of what designer Jen Talbot is all about. Spaces that are works of art. Where each piece is carefully considered, is a work of art on its own, and as a whole it is next level sophisticated and tells such a dramatic story. Simplicity is key. An abundance of shapes. Dark and light. Setting the stage. Photos: Dustin Forest.

Timeless tranquility in Austin

Posted on Thu, 26 Jun 2025 by midcenturyjo

Set in Austin, this home by Molly Kidd Studio has a contemporary European vibe. Designed as a sanctuary from busy lives, it blends soft neutrals, layered textures and natural materials for a calm, timeless feel. Venetian plaster walls and bold elements like Arabescato marble and vintage lighting add depth and personality. With over half of the furnishings being vintage ( sourced locally and abroad) the home feels effortlessly collected, warm and quietly dramatic.
