Another eclectic apartment by Pepe Leal

Posted on Wed, 13 May 2020 by KiM

I am head over heels in love with this apartment. Possibly more than the last one I featured by Pepe Leal. I generally hate blue, but I’m dying over the kitchen. And the photo above – is that moldings installed length wise all over the walls? I’d hate to be the one to clean that, but I love that idea! And the powder room sink setup! So cute!

An eclectic apartment in Madrid

Posted on Wed, 13 May 2020 by KiM

What an absolutely beautiful, vintage-filled apartment this is! Located in Malasaña, Madrid, it is filled with many eclectic and unexpected touches that make it really unique. That screen above is to die for, the sofa cover is GORG (LOVE the draped arms), lots of modern artwork and bits of wallpaper for some added pattern. And there’s even a tree. Designed by Pepe Leal.

Looking forward looking back

Posted on Fri, 8 May 2020 by midcenturyjo


I’m taking a little journey back to historic Como House in South Yarra. No not a physical journey, more like a jump back a couple of years to Como By Design, a show house featuring 23 of Melbourne’s eminent interior designers under the helm of Tigger Hall. The magnificent house is owned by the National trust so the designers were not able to alter the fabric of the rooms and had to return them to the original state once the event was over including the original wall colour! The house was completely transformed – 2 days to set up & 1 day to pack down. I’ve embedded links to each designer in the pictures. Time to go for a little journey yourself.

 

 

A renovated Tribeca condo

Posted on Tue, 5 May 2020 by KiM

Another home run from Kevin Dumais, but quite a bit more contemporary than the weekend home. His spaces are so incredibly timeless and thoughtfully curated. LOVE. The developers of this Tribeca condo agreed to undertake a custom remodeling with the owners, who had purchased the neighboring apartment and brought in Dumais to help design the expanded interiors. The open layout was converted into something more classically segmented and reminiscent of the family-friendly prewar style. The resulting four-bedroom floorplan included a family room, living room, informal dining room, walk-in closets, mudroom, and a home office off the master suite.

A bohemian romantic apartment in Lisbon

Posted on Fri, 1 May 2020 by KiM

Letícia of Lisbon-based Roof Design Studio (interior design, architecture and renovations, product design and graphic design) sent over photos of a beautiful apartment in a duplex in Lisbon that overlooks the Tagus river. In a perfect balance between neutral colors and the explosion of colours, between modern and clean design and pieces full of travel memories, between collector art and emerging illustration, walls have been torn down to create wider spaces and doors were eliminated to create greater visual connections. In these residential 170m2 you can find portuguese brands such as Mambo Unlimited Ideas, Dooq details, Theia tiles, Utu Lamps and many furniture pieces designed by the creative team of studio Roof, meticulously manufactured by the best national artisans. Sophistication and functionality were the keywords of the project, where each chosen material, each combination of colours and patterns and each perspective reflect the owner’s taste and personality.
