Between the forest and the sea

Posted on Wed, 7 Jul 2021 by midcenturyjo

“Nestled between forest, dune and sea our cottage style Starwood Residence is the manifestation of our design-minded client’s vision for a home that sustains a lifestyle rooted in family and flow … the house was stripped to its bones and lovingly brought back to life, with reclaimed French terracotta hexagon tile the stage upon which clay finished walls, rouge marble and custom joinery interplay with a quietly eclectic harmony of furniture, art and accessories.”

A mind set of reuse, recycle and repurpose has created a home that is about comfort and sustainability. A wonderfully laid back house in Bloemendaal, The Netherlands by Avenue Design Studio.

An artful and collected style

Balanced, acquired and intentional. That’s the mantra of Los Angeles-based interior design studio Transition State. Laid back luxury with a distinct California style.

Jeffrey Dungan Architects

Posted on Fri, 2 Jul 2021 by KiM

Jeffrey Dungan is an architect based in Alabama who is recognized for his clean and modern approach to traditional vernaculars and classical architecture but there is a modern and somewhat edgy approach he takes that is 100% my cup of tea. I could barely get through prepping this post as I kept going back through the photos to take a 3rd and 4th look to make sure I didn’t miss anything.

An elegant apartment in Lambersart

Posted on Tue, 29 Jun 2021 by midcenturyjo

Blessed with the beautiful bones of a 1940s apartment Parisian-based RMGB have created a magical home in the very northern commune of Lambersart.  A neutral colour palette allows original features like a two-storey stained glass window and its accompanying staircase to shine. The mix of contemporary furniture and pieces from the 60s and 70s is chic in the way that only the French can be truly chic.

A California home with a dreamy kitchen

Posted on Thu, 24 Jun 2021 by KiM

This home may look California from the street but it has such a warmth and natural, almost old world feel that you might think at first glance it’s in the South of France or Italy. Only things missing are the rolling hills and olive groves. Whatever feelings it evokes, it is absolutely beautiful and clearly cooking and entertaining where food is involved is key.
