I had a few free minutes before heading out to the Ottawa Antique & Vintage Market so I decided to spend this precious break perusing one of my favourite blogs, The Design Files. A couple of homes featured over the past couple of months really blew me away for their dramatic impact and I had to share some of the photos with you. First there was the home of Melbourne stylist, decorator and retailer Lynda Gardener – a converted warehouse whose all white space is the perfect backdrop for rustic, vintage treasures. Then there was the SOHO loft of Australian photographer Martyn Thompson, that is dramatic in its dark palette and random in its decor. Here, hand-painted murals by Martyn’s artist partner Dove Drury Hornbuckle take centre stage. Both are absolutely breathtaking.

I’m in Paddington Sydney and I’m stalking a warehouse conversion. Bright, white, what a delight! Indoor outdoor living with a relaxed, urban cool vibe. Colour, tick. Mid-mod industrial, tick. City skyline views, tick. Party house, tick. Perfect. Just need the $2.4 million. Oh well. A girl can dream. Link here while it lasts.

While his New York eerie was all about the night this Miami, Florida townhouse is bright as a day. Interior designer Michael Dawkins layers marble and linen, patinaed wood and shots of living green. Cool interiors call like sirens while darker retreats pull you further in from the sun.

I am off to tour some gorgeous homes today at the annual Glebe House Tour, and thought a tour of this lovely one bedroom apartment in the U.K. would be a start to a new week. it is located in a 1930’s building and is packed with vintage charm. It looks like someone likes thrifting as much as I do. 🙂 Via JJ Locations. 

I thought I would share a random assortment of images from other projects by Septembre Architecture.
