I can never get enough of Danish and Swedish architecture. It's totally a look I hope to achieve in some capacity with my home eventually. The white and minimal look is perfect for a home of chaos with too many cats that is my sanctuary. Jo blogged a project of Copenhagen-based architecture firm NORM a few months ago so I thought I'd revisit their portfolio and feature a bunch of my favourite spaces. LOVE THESE.
I had to feature a commercial project designed by Beyond Beige that I found on their website - a Vancouver nightclub called Ginger 62. This place is HOT!! (Decorating a dressing room with a vibe similar to this would be fabulous!)
Contemporary home with water views. That's how the real estate ad should go. It would if I was writing it. Real estate stalking the suburbs of Melbourne. A clean contemporary look. A modern home for a modern family. This is one home I think would look great in a magazine shoot. I'm sure a good photographer and stylist could make this hoe look so much more inviting. Link here while it lasts. (Thanks again to my fellow stalker Andrea for the heads up on this one. Her comment? "Nice for a new house.")
Maybe the title should be making the most of minimal space in Singapore. Maxing out the minimalist? In the city state of Singapore the majority of its citizens live in government built flats. Here is a renovation of one of these cookie cutter impersonal apartments into something that is light and airy and seemingly spacious. Grabbing the leafy outside views and giving the space a sense of openness by removing walls architect Desmond Ong is a magician conjuring maximum impact with a very minimal aesthetic.
My brother-in-law Dave sent me a link to quite an extraordinary chalet the other day, located in the Alps and designed by Parisian designer and interior architect Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance. It's far from your average cozy, sheepskin-filled chalet and is modern as modern gets. This chalet attempts to be typical with plenty of timber walls but it stops there. And why not?
