… and oh the view!

Posted on Mon, 9 Jul 2012 by midcenturyjo

On and on forever. Blue sea melts into blue sky. The perfect backdrop for this small but casually elegant seaside cottage at Palm Beach north of Sydney I recently found real estate stalking. As lovely as the home is, it is the deck and that view that just might clinch the deal for any prospective buyer. If they need a little more convincing then the stone wine cellar and bathroom are definitely a talking point. By no means large it is big on style and long on lingering drinking in that view. Imagine lying cosy in your bed and watching a storm roll in. Link here while it lasts.

Rut Karadottir is an interior designer based in Iceland who studied and spent some time working for an architecture firm in Italy before opening her own design studio in ’97. I love her work, a mix of modern and Scandinavian mixed with rustic elements. My favourite combination. 🙂

WHITE

Posted on Fri, 29 Jun 2012 by KiM

It’s the beginning of a long weekend for us Canadians (YAY!), and it’s been a loooong and busy week. I cannot wait for the weekend to begin – but first, I am leaving work a bit early to get a little tattoo (YAY!). It’s been a few years since I’ve been inked so when I heard my twin sister and co-worker wanted to go I figured I’d join in the fun. (I’ll share on my page when it’s healed a bit). Anyhoo, I thought you’d enjoy a couple gorgeous photos to end off the work week, care of the portfolio of photographer Edward Pond. Isn’t white beautiful?

Night and day

I’ll start this post by saying that I would happily move into Les Interieurs‘ studio in Newport Beach and blissfully live amongst the stock. I adore Pamela Makin’s work.  Remember this…

from this post? I didn’t think it could get any better. Well it has. New work from Les Interieurs. I think of it as night and day. Black, white and natural. Tribal, timber and art and artifact. It’s just perfect. The homes today are moody and black or atmospheric and naturally neutral… or both. Perfect.

And here’s why I want to most into Les Interieurs’ workspace and studio. Sigh.

Here we go again with yet another Swedish-inspired post. I find their interiors so casual, relaxing and soothing to the eye. The inspiring photos below are care of photographer Magdalena Björnsdotter. Simple photos that highlight the simple beauty of the mostly white spaces.
