An apartment in Rome

Continuing on from yesterday morning’s classy Italian apartment is this totally sexy apartment also by architecture and interior design firm Quincoces-Dragò & Partners. Complete with bondage chairs. European minimalism to envy. 

Working on a Saturday

Posted on Sat, 28 Nov 2015 by midcenturyjo

You know what I say about working on a weekend. If you have to drag your sorry self into work then let’s hope it’s somewhere stylish. I would have no trouble putting in the extra hours at the offices of Evans and Partners by Bates Smart.

The Paddington Project

Posted on Tue, 24 Nov 2015 by midcenturyjo

New from Sydney-based design duo Christopher Glanville and Megan Burns of CM Studio the Paddington Project builds on the success of their Cross Street project. Known for their elegant, liveable, modern spaces the studio has partnered with leading Australian furniture retailer Living Edge to create the Paddington Project, a quintessential Sydney terrace renovated with sophisticated minimalist interiors and styling. Here’s the twist. It’s all for sale. From the Marc Newson For Noritake Espresso Cups to the MO Bed to the artwork to the house.

Additional collaborators include Sydney Florist Doctor Cooper whose floral arrangements will adorn some events throughout the project and Sebastian Goldspink who has curated a collection of contemporary Sydney artists to be represented in the space. Design Open Days Friday 27th/Saturday 28th/Sunday 29th November and Friday 4th/Saturday 5th/Sunday 6th December 1pm – 5pm. The Paddington Project is at 51 Oately Rd, Paddington.

A church conversion in London

Posted on Sun, 15 Nov 2015 by KiM

Yes folks, it is another church conversion here on DTI, because Jo and I love a good conversion and churches have such incredible, dramatic architecture. This church is 19th century with a gothic vibe, and features 4 bedrooms each with their own bathrooms, a specially commissioned kitchen, hand painted columns, gloriously huge arched windows, blackened oak herringbone floor (dying over this!!) and a small courtyard. This is by far one of my favourite church conversions we have featured. A new location on the Shoot Factory roster.

Coveting staircases

Posted on Thu, 12 Nov 2015 by midcenturyjo

I would give anything to have a statement staircase in my home. Something with the wow factor. I’m thinking that the owners of this Point Piper, Sydney home might just be a little greedy. They have two! And a view to die for! And two floors of books! Their dreams made true by Pearse Architects.
