A duplex transformation

Posted on Mon, 4 Nov 2024 by midcenturyjo

Netherwood Road in Brook Green, London, is the latest project by Ola Jachymiak Studio transforming the space into a sunlit, Mediterranean-style haven. This 120 m² duplex has been meticulously reconfigured to create comfortable, functional rooms. The upper floor features a lofted kitchen and living room while the lower floor houses two bedrooms, bathrooms and ample storage. Hidden cupboards match the walls for a seamless look, and a large, light-filled master bathroom was achieved with a well-placed window. A neutral beige and white palette highlights the client’s artwork, making this an inviting, personalized oasis.

Working on a Saturday

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Kit Building by Breland–Harper.

Wisteria Cottage

Posted on Wed, 30 Oct 2024 by KiM

Wisteria Cottage – Detached 5 bed Victorian cottage with a modern timber & glass and critical extension, with a large garden that overlooks farm fields. The garden also has a separate timber built 2 bed cabin with modern rustic interiors. The downstairs is mainly open plan with a large modern kitchen, which has a 100 year old olive growing out of the kitchen island. The open plan downstairs consists of a large garden room, kitchen, kitchen diner, dining room, utility, snug/5th bedroom, office and downstairs toilet. There are 7 sets of double crittal doors that open out onto different parts of the garden overlooking farm fields and an 11th century church and graveyard. The first floor has 4 double bedrooms, three with ensuites and a family bathroom which has an antique roll top copper bath.
This home has both modern and rustic spaces which is a heavenly combination (IMHO). Also if I can somehow get a built in planter for an olive tree in my next house…. Location home available via Shoot Factory.

When I dream of homes in Provence, they essentially look just like this one designed by John Tanner. Limestone floors, simple plasterwork, oversized fireplaces, crystal chandeliers, and a really beautiful almost monastic and minimal feel. I would not change a thing here. Architect: Bosc Architectes.

This beautiful townhouse in Monnickendam, The Netherlands was designed by DAB Studio. Taking advantage of tall ceiling heights and some original historic elements, this home was transformed into a really unique, modern and minimal oasis. The kitchen is a stunner with all rounded corners creating a fluid space, and flows with the rounded glass and wood partition from the staircase. It’s amazing how much warmer and organic a space can feel with curves rather than sharp edges. The rounded shape of the kitchen backsplash accentuates all of the curves and helps delineate the kitchen. All of these creative elements I’m taking note of. Photos: Daniëlle Siobhán.
