Cheerful and cheeky in Florida

Posted on Thu, 23 Mar 2023 by midcenturyjo

“Discovered through Instagram, we were tasked by our clients to design a home to be the antithesis of a traditional northeast home (where they were moving from). The couple chose to refresh the home, originally built in 1955, as a way to breathe new life—and sneak an extra bedroom—into their space. When it came to the initial mood board, capturing a sense of cheerfulness and familiarity through the use of color was top of mind. With one heading a public art organization, integration of artful interiors and color was paramount. We designed the home with outspoken wallpaper selections and color combos that celebrate life.”

Definitely packing a punch with a riot of colour and bold pattern clash this home in Coral Gables, Florida is by Miami-based design firm Bunsa Studio.

A Georgian period home in Notting Hill

Posted on Wed, 22 Mar 2023 by KiM

A six-storey Georgian period property located in Notting Hill, London. Hubert Zandberg Interiors was appointed to complete the interior architecture and design and carried out a full renovation of the space, whilst preserving the historic character of the building; an important element for both the client and HZI. The approach was a soft play on English traditional with a bohemian Notting Hill twist, combining classic detailing with a fresh contemporary palette along with the family’s dynamic art collection.
In typical HZI fashion, this home is wonderfully layered and curated with unique colours and an eclectic mix of styles I love so much.

A restored 1937 home in Georgia

Posted on Wed, 22 Mar 2023 by KiM

This 1937 home in West Point, Georgia was designed by architect Henry Toombs and restored and a guest house added by designer David Frazier. I love the classic vibes and antiques mixed with casual earthy elements (ie. a plethora of rugs) and appreciate that he left some original features intact, like the tongue and groove paneling in the primary bedroom. Such a beautiful, timeless home. (Photos: Gieves Anderson)

A colourful family home in London

Posted on Mon, 20 Mar 2023 by KiM

Inspired by the joyful and eclectic atmosphere of the home in the ‘Paddington’ films we created a vibrant, pattern filled home for design lovers, with an emphasis on practical solutions for family life and interesting design details throughout.
This could not be more perfect for a family with young kids. The colours are so fresh and incredibly fun and have such a wonderful energy. Immediately brings a smile to my face. Also how can you not love a yellow kitchen? Designed by James Arkoulis and Saskia Howard of Howark Design (***update: and as per the comments, also designed by Robert Atherton Design)

A new build waterside escape in Louisiana

Posted on Thu, 16 Mar 2023 by KiM

This new build was designed as a waterside escape for its owners and a place for them to gather with their family and friends. Working with Watters Architecture to create an intimately-scaled home that could flex from being used by two as a cozy retreat to housing large groups, we turned to a classic center hall design with a primary suite wing and multiple bunk rooms on the upper level. A dreamy oak clad office space, acting as a bridge between the main house and primary wing, doubles as a private sitting room for the owners when the house is full of guests. This Louisiana camp required a dose of vernacular design, but an upbringing familiar with East Coast summer homes inspired shiplap walls, nautical touches, and a dose of nostalgia. Our clients’ sophisticated and well traveled taste brought in a layer of Mediterranean elements and African decor, creating a relaxing, cool, and down right fun place to play on the water or kick up your feet.
Cottage living at its finest! And the kitchen is as cute as can be. Another wonderful project by the talented Logan Killen Interiors. (Architect: Watters Architecture; Contractor: JB Design Build; Photographer: Jacqueline Marque)
