Studio McGee encore

Posted on Thu, 26 May 2016 by midcenturyjo

It’s no secret that we love design firm Studio McGee here on Desire to Inspire. Their homes are always so fresh and family friendly, stylish but never pretentious. I’m particularly taken by their Claybourne Project. The combined family room/kitchen is fabulous but it’s the office that has me green with envy.

A love letter

Posted on Tue, 24 May 2016 by midcenturyjo

Dear Simpson Jacoby Architecture,

I just wanted to pen a short note to let you know how much I love your work on this old house. Sympathetic, stylish, simple and soft. Love the colour palette, the whitewashed floors, the kitchen and the restored, sinuous stairs rising to that dark and moody studio office. Love how your client has filled it gently and thoughtfully with their possessions and how you knew it would be just so. Love it all.

Regards,

Jo

Working on a Saturday

Posted on Sat, 14 May 2016 by midcenturyjo

It’s like I say week after week. If you have to drag your sorry self into work on a Saturday then it certainly helps if it’s somewhere stylish and this architectural “shop front” is one cool workspace.

Tasmanian architectural studio Room11 moved from their “spacious rooftop studio in the middle of the city to a street interface, seeking greater engagement with the public. The petite space is left as is, sprayed black with a singular intervention, a hovering timber display and work box.”

Clever, clever, clever.

It’s like I say week after week. If you have to drag your sorry self into work on a Saturday then it certainly helps if it’s somewhere stylish. I would have no trouble punching the clock on a weekend if I worked at the Wolfdene offices designed by Melbourne-based Larritt-Evans.

A subtly colourful home by Generation

Laid-back, Scandi-modern, jolts of colour, funky photography art, clean lines. This home is all kinds of fun and I just want to hang out forever. By Johannesburg, South Africa design firm and store Generation.
