Sydney sandstone

Ease and elegance, sophistication and stylish simplicity. The hero of the landscape design is the sandstone, walls, steps, pavers, referencing the outcrops of this golden stone seen throughout the Sydney area. Central to all is the pool, a cool oasis in the inner city. Classical gives way to overgrown jungle as you climb the stairs to the upper level. Darling Point by William Dangar.

Stalking a room with a view

I'm stalking a bathroom with a view and a living room with one too ... and a pool and a garden and a hallway and a bedroom and you get the idea. I can only imagine what the New Year's Eve fireworks over Sydney Harbour look like from this spectacular location at Rose Bay. Perhaps we can pool our dollars and cents to make an offer.

Stalking an Edwardian red brick where classic meets contemporary

I'm stalking in the Melbourne suburb of Armadale. A renovated Edwardian red brick semi with a modern extension ... the type of property that always draws me in. You know me. I can't resist a heritage facade with a little modern something hidden right behind. Just  a few more pieces of art and a slightly bigger backyard and I'd be happy. Link here while it lasts.

Studio apartment kitchen inspiration

Live in a small studio apartment? Basically just one room in which to cram your living sleeping and kitchen? Love to cook but don't want to stare at the kitchen sink while you're reclining on your bed? Rather forget that you live in just that one room? Here is a little inspiration from Melbourne based Nicholas Agius Architects. (Now I just wonder what the studio apartment looked like when the rest of the "stuff" was moved in.)
