An apartment in Vienna with the dreamiest kitchen
Posted on Mon, 6 Mar 2023 by KiM
I am completely smitten with this apartment in Vienna designed by Atelier Karasinski. Particularly the kitchen outfitted with deVOL cabinets, with the most spectacular original ceiling and painted in the yummiest Negroni red”. Cooking in there would bring me so much joy! The rest of the apartment is eclectic and has such fabulous details – hellooooo marble and antiques and Gucci wallpaper and surprise cupboards. (Photos: Ana Barros for AD Germany)
Charlotte’s Folly
Posted on Tue, 28 Feb 2023 by KiM
A Brothers Grimm hideaway that seems to sprout from the garden like a limewashed berry, Charlotte’s Folly is a luxury self-catering cottage nestled in 200 acres of Shropshire woodlands. Telling a sweet tale of craftmanship and nostalgia, this terracotta trinket is storybook architecture at its finest, a time-travelling family retreat that could have been lifted from folklore.
Designed by Emma Ainscough, this magical little 19th-century cottage is available for rent via Unique Homestays. I am completely smitten with the beauty of the estate (which includes ‘architectural marvels of Victorian stature’) and that gorgeous kitchen.

An Art Deco home gets a facelift with spicey colours
Posted on Fri, 24 Feb 2023 by KiM
This prestigious double fronted Art Deco cream brick beacon of casual regality adorns a fancy suburban street in Moonee Ponds. WOWOWA’s role was akin to a surgeon – preforming open heart surgery, removing the scare tissue of the past renovation and creating a family home that celebrated the playful ornament of the original 1930’s era. The first decision was to mirror the cream & brown brick robustness of the front facade, around the back. A sense of inside outside was crucial to this project. Working around existing bones, the renovation addon reads like an L shaped nugget, but in reality, the living room sits on the base of an existing basement and is largely a reduction more than an alteration & addition.
I am DYING over this renovation. All of my favourite colours in one home (and all in one kitchen no less!). This home is so incredibly unique and vibrant, and that kitchen is one of my all-time favourites. (Photos: Martina Gemmola; Styling: Ruth Welsby)
Casamidy’s home in San Miguel de Allende
Posted on Tue, 14 Feb 2023 by KiM
I stumbled upon the San Miguel de Allende home of Jorge Almada and A-M Midy of casamidy as part of a series of properties they own and offer for weekly rentals. Lord have mercy sign me up for a week or 2 here! I still yearn to visit San Miguel one day and this property represents all the good things about that beautiful city – views, character, gorgeous architectural details, unique design, and inviting outdoor spaces.

This Orange County family home is full of warmth and a really grounded energy. Design firm Soko Dai added alot of natural stone, wood and textural fabrics to bring an earthy, modern, minimalist vibe. Also, I’ve never seen so many gorgeous bathrooms in one home! WOW!!! (Photos: Tramp Studio)
