An apartment in Moscow where plants thrive

Posted on Fri, 27 Jan 2023 by KiM

Designer Elena Gorenshtein has a very obvious love of plants/the outdoors and decided to bring the outdoors into her apartment in Moscow by combining 2 apartments into one and created skylights? lightboxes? in the dark centre of the space to allow for a “winter garden”. I would lay in that bathtub, turn on one of those bird videos I play for my cats, and pretend I was bathing in a forest.

This is simply a blog about interiors.

Earthy eclectic

“Hidden in the canyon of Irvine, California, this 10,000 square foot home is full of Spanish influences. With architectural foundations like beautiful archways and organic characteristics, our team brought a vision to life that is uniquely exquisite. As a result, you’ll see high ceilings, geometric shapes, plaster throughout, and luxury goods for an eloquent look. With an intentional design approach that is functional and aristocratic, our design encompasses natural light and a trendy color palette.”

A neutral nirvana with an emphasis on natural materials and texture with its restrained colour palette. Earthy Eclectic by Orange County based Lindye Galloway.

A designer’s inviting home in London

Posted on Mon, 23 Jan 2023 by KiM

The home of Belsize Park, London home of designer Georgina Cave of Cave Interiors is giving all the comfortable, homey vibes. A little bit dare I say “masculine” and mid-century with a kitchen that isn’t all white so I am completely in love. (Photos: Paul Massey)

I have to admit that many kitchen underwhelm me. I often find they are too white, too modern, too cold and lack architectural details. This kitchen in The Beaches ‘hood of Toronto is none of those things. It is warm, inviting, unique and I am having heat palpitations over the graphic nature of that marble. This kitchen is a DREAM. Designed by Sarah Birnie, styled by Meg Crossley & Morgan Michener and photos by Lauren Miller.

Working on a Saturday

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Formaje by Cobalto.

P.S. Just to set the record straight you would NEVER have to drag me into work in a cheese shop!
