After surviving a fire and an unsympathetic renovation this Victorian terrace house has been gently and beautifully restored by Melbourne-based design firm Beatrix Rowe. A neutral colour palette, bespoke cabinetry and furniture, “floating” Calacatta marble benches in the kitchen and bathroom and custom arched doors all combine to create a zen like contemporary home. Speaking of bathrooms can we just take a moment to appreciate the beauty of that bathroom? Swoon!

It has been a while since I shared some projects by San Francisco design firm Studio Muir (they were here and here). I thought I would share a glimpse into some of their latest work. It continues to be classic, timeless yet modern. (Photos: Nicole Franzen, landscape: Stephens Design Studio)

A few months back I shared an ingenious bike storage idea in a London mews house. The property designed by Studio Mackereth is now for sale through The Modern House (here) and we get to see the rest of this stylish and clever home. Slide-away hide-away kitchen, hidden television and of course those stairs.

I wanted to share a random assortment of projects from the portfolio of Richmond Bell Architects because I could not get enough after last week’s pool/pool house feature. All breathtaking and an eye candy extravaganza for your viewing pleasure.

We love our indoor outdoor living in Australia. Flinging windows and doors wide open to let the air in and our spirits out. This small courtyard in Essendon by Melbourne-based landscape design studio Mud Office is a perfect example. Green, cool, inviting and petite. Dappled shade, branches swaying in the breeze, lush yet low maintenance and above all or should I say above it fun and games!
