Dark drama

The beauty of black. Dark yet light. Glen Iris home by the Martino Group. Drama and design, development and art.

 

A colourful beach house

Awash with sunshine and colour, white walls and floors. A casually chic family home with stunning sea views. The perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city living yet still on the northern beaches of Sydney. Palm Beach Tower. It can be yours for a few days or a few weeks as a holiday let. Who wants to join me for a winter weekend getaway?

A sophisticated loft

I was craving a little sophistication, a little hip and chic, and came across this loft by California design firm Caitlin & Caitlin (Caitlin McCarthy and Caitlin Murray) that does the trick. It is an eclectic mix of modern and Hollywood Regency, random colours and patterns, yet the marriage of disparate pieces makes for a very intriguing home. Love it!

Monday's pets on furniture

If you'd like to send me photos to include in next week's pets on furniture post, please ensure your photos follow these basic rules: First, the pet must be on a piece of furniture. And said piece of furniture must be clearly visible in the photo, so it takes center stage rather than your pet. Think of it more of a photo of a great piece of furniture that you want to show off...and your pet happens to be sitting on it. And second, if the photo is too dark or unfocused it may not make the cut. Photos, your name, location and a brief description can be sent to kim[at]desiretoinspire[dot]net. Thanks!

My pug's name is Dr. Tobias Fünke (named after the character from Arrested Development) but I call him Fünke and we are from México City. The furniture he is in, is a old trunk I bought in a antique sale, I painted it, and added the wooden legs.
