Modern Oasis

Posted on Wed, 19 Jun 2024 by midcenturyjo

Brisbane-based Langlois Design‘s brief was to transform the existing residence, giving the architecture a modern lift, and seamlessly blending the clients’ styles. Emphasizing clean lines and layered textures, the home has become a vibrant oasis. The renovation focused on the kitchen, opening up space for better flow and incorporating a round, tiered island bench for functionality. The kitchen’s finishes reflected the clients’ personalities with organic shapes, olive green and teak joinery, terrazzo, mosaic tiles and modern tapware, creating an energizing yet homey atmosphere.

Function meets beauty in a 1920s Tudor home

Posted on Thu, 6 Jun 2024 by KiM

I am completely in awe and frankly quite jealous of these spaces in a 1920s Tudor home designed by Whittney Parkinson. You’ve got a spacious kitchen with gorgeous cabinetry & countertops & arched tiled wall & a statement hood fan situation with a gem of a butler’s pantry, a mudroom and laundry room that are so functional but also soooo stylish, and a pile of bathrooms that have such pretty details, never mind that one of them looks larger than my living room. *GASP*

Working on a Saturday

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. PBS Studio by Patricia Bustos Studio.

Modern and historic

Posted on Thu, 25 Jan 2024 by midcenturyjo

“This targeted renovation of a townhome in the Society Hill neighborhood involved working with the client to create a dream kitchen and primary bathroom, as well as other architectural updates throughout the home. Attention was given to selecting materials and fixtures that honored the historic nature of the home, while adding touches of modern sensibility and a warm, inviting atmosphere.”

The appearance of gold

Posted on Thu, 11 Jan 2024 by midcenturyjo

“Yellow-coloured objects appear to be gold” – Aristotle. It’s a quote used by Geremia Design to describe their reworking of a Julia Morgan house. (Morgan’s most famous building is Hearst Castle.) It’s about bold, saturated colour and the juxtaposition of old and new, novel and familiar, subtle and dramatic. It’s about alchemy … and gold.
