It’s like I say time and time again. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Lifestyle concept store Zoobibi by The Stella Collective.

When Melbourne’s The Stella Collective developed the interiors of a group of 8 townhouses in Elwood it was all about effortless, modern living. “The interiors inject a sexy and luxurious beach vibe into the spaces, while the glamour of the Art Deco design creates the perfect backdrop for residents seeking the ultimate in Melbourne bayside living.”

With 10 days to go to Christmas I thought I would try to add a bit more festive vibes to the blog (since neither Jo nor I partake in any Christmas decorating) with this beautiful 49 sq m apartment in Sweden dolled up for the holidays. Home of 20 year old decorator Simon Olsson, it’s a delicious melange of white, grey and black and is filled with vintage finds. So cozy and the sparse pine trees and lighting really make it special.

It had been a while since we heard from architect and interior designer Alex Calin of Space Casuals (there was this project), so I was stoked to see what he’s been working on lately. This 1930s modernist home in Bucharest was thoughtfully restored with attempts to maintain original details whenever possible. The whole story is about recovering and restoring an initially lost image. The small details, the kitchen table, the door fragment that became a bed sheet, another old existing door transformed into a hall mirror, the countertops of the bathroom sinks made from damaged pieces of furniture all complete this effort and the care to preserve and restore.

A pleasing marriage of contemporary and rustic elements embues this Ibiza house with an easy sophistication. The white colour palette is warmed by wooden accents while statement black adds drama to the bedroom. Relaxed country elegance by the design studio Aaprile
