I’ll take a window seat

Posted on Fri, 27 Oct 2017 by KiM

I have always had a thing for cozy seating areas like banquettes and window seats. It seems Julie Goldman of J.Latter Design and the owners of this home in New Orleans share this obsession. Happy weekend!

Stalking concrete blocks

Posted on Mon, 29 May 2017 by KiM

I’m in Collingwood an inner-city suburb of Melbourne and I’m stalking one half of an old concrete block warehouse. Inside it’s soaring ceilings and white walls, black steel windows and open spaces. From the mix of mid century and contemporary furniture to the striking artwork it’s the quintessential industrial meets modern living conversion. It appears that’s it is being used as a commercial premises and I’m stratching my head as to where I’d put the bed. You must view the listing video and leave your critique of the acting in the comments. Link here while it lasts.

P.S. Stayed tuned for tomorrow’s post on the other half of this building. A completely different take on the space.

There

That spot. There. On the window ledge. I want to sit there lost in reverie watching the world go by. West Village loft by Jennifer Bunsa.

Still kitchen crushing

Posted on Tue, 31 Jan 2017 by KiM

Can you tell I’m just about to start my kitchen renovation? That the only things on my mind at the moment are kitchens, kitchens, kitchens? I’d love to scrap my plans and start all over again now that I’ve seen this moody beauty by New York-based interior designer Monique Gibson. You can see more of the East Village Atelier here.

Ancient stones modern house

Love the juxtaposition of old stone and modern glass in this conversion in the ancient city of Safed, Israel by Henkin Shavit Architecture & Design. The history is palpable. The future is present.
