A minimalist Nantucket compound

Posted on Wed, 2 Jul 2025 by midcenturyjo

Designed by Workshop/APD, this pavilion-style Nantucket retreat blends traditional cedar-shingle architecture with a distinctly modern perspective. Eight gabled volumes are linked by walkways that create fluid connections between indoor and outdoor spaces. The interiors are minimalist yet inviting featuring a light-filled rooms, tonal furnishings and bold contemporary art. Meticulously crafted and intentionally scaled, the home offers a sophisticated yet relaxed approach to coastal living reflecting Workshop/APD’s thoughtful and highly detailed design ethos.

Albion Nord believes the most beautiful spaces are those with soul, more than just balance, proportion or historical context. Their design for Lords View One reflects this philosophy. With serene interiors crafted from marble, timber and bronze, each residence offers calm and character. Sliding, full-height doors frame sweeping views while ensuring privacy. Warm timber paneling replaces conventional white walls, unifying each space and creating a calm, textural environment of quiet sophistication and enduring quality.

Wabi Sabi cottage

Posted on Fri, 20 Jun 2025 by midcenturyjo

“Our Wabi-Sabi Cottage reflects the essence of the natural world, prioritizing soft, warm textures inspired by the surroundings. The Japanese wabi-sabi philosophy is expressed through the careful use of color, restrained patterns, and surfaces that emphasize simplicity and imperfection, making this home a serene retreat.”

Yond Interiors design homes rooted in a deep sense of place, balancing form and function through proportion, light, and harmony. With reverence for history, craftsmanship, and bespoke or vintage pieces, each space reflects thoughtful detail and the client’s vision.

Located on the border between Berlin Mitte and Kreuzberg, the apartment overlooks the historic courtyards of Zander&Palm with their soulful industrial brickwork. Bought as a dark and dusty attic within two years the space was transformed into a cosy and light-filled family dwelling with impressive ceiling heights. A warm palette thanks to the presence of various types of wood (oak, teak, palisander, etc.) makes bright hues and textures pop through experimental treatment of timber and material mixes as well as curated art pieces. With two small kids and regular dinner parties, the couple needed the kitchen to be both practical and joyful. Lacquered in solid colours, the joinery is also oak timber – similarly to the cabinetry made for the bathrooms and the bedroom. After 2,5 years of developing, the interiors feel lived in and very liveable – which is what Studio Bosko aims for with every design project they take on.
