Saunders Architecture

Posted on Fri, 18 May 2007 by midcenturyjo

Ashley sent us a great link to Saunders Architecture a firm owned by Canadian Todd Saunders who has lived and worked in Norway since 1997. The work combines a Nordic design sensibility with environmental concerns. The summer house Ashley wants to share came about this way…… “When we first started our firm, instead of looking for clients we went looking for plots, to build an experimental structure. Doing this, we could pursue our architectural vision in line with our convictions: uncompromising, original and respect for the landscape.” Check out the other amazing projects on their website especially the Aurland Lookout. Thanks Ashley!\

Venetian mirrors

Posted on Wed, 16 May 2007 by KiM

Mirrors are fabulous…particularly glamorous venetian mirrors. Mirrors are perfect to use in a small space to make it appear larger…and venetian mirrors also can add an extra bit of glamour with their ornate detail. They are suitable in any room, over a bathroom sink, over a bed, over a dining room buffet, in a hallway…

Thanks Nick!!!

Nick Olsen from Domino’s Daily Dose gave us a great shout out. Sounds like he’s just as hooked on desire to inspire as we are. If you’re here because of Nick’s lovely post then welcome. Make yourself a cup of tea and settle in to browse through our archives. Hope you enjoy our blog as much as we enjoy finding all these great rooms for you.

P.S. Just a little taste of Nick’s own place from Domino Magazine.

Words cannot describe……

how much I love this house! Greg Natale has done it again. Bold, glamorous and oozing attitude this 1940s family home was renovated and furnished by Greg and his team and is the latest project featured on his inspiring website. It’s a sophisticated mix of traditional pieces, design classics, lush colour and pattern, lots of glorious glam pattern. Thanks for the pictures Greg!

Sixx Design

Husband and wife team Cortney and Robert Novogratz are Sixx Design. Turning chaos into fabulous and creating sumptuous, well-designed spaces from wrecks and empty lots, this design duo (and their six kids) create developments from the derelict carcass all the way to triumphant completion. Inspiring. Check out the website too many great pictures.
