Bookshelf, concept, Isabel Quiroga, Storyteller, Tables

Isabel Quiroga’s Storyteller Bookshelf concept is simple yet wonderfully effective. Providing attractive wall storage and display out of vintage tables. Because of its somewhat modular design, one can pick and choose their style, colour and make a perfect fit for their purpose. See more at Isabel’s website: Isabel Quiroga.

Architect Ville Hara and designer Linda Bergroth have created this remarkable garden shed/ greenhouse. As a unique proposition for combining the two structures into a new, and aesthetically pleasing design, the addition of wooden flooring and solar lights make Linda Bergroth’s personal early prototype an inspiring outside room.

If you are like my mother you enjoy buying things because you like them and do not care if they work with your decor, desired look or taste. If you are also like my mother you will then moan about how nothing in your home goes together and how awful it looks. Quite right, it is all well and good decorating your home with things you like, you should, it is after all your home. However you still have to try continuity in theme, design and general aesthetic. What I suggest is to create a scrap-book of your favourite interiors and from this, over time you will see a pattern emerging. This will be your favoured design, so run with it.

People go wrong with interior design for two main reasons (in my opinion). Continue reading »

GRAFFITI, ART NOUVEAU AND A LITTLE BIT OF SOUL

The Hotel Wiesler is the new epitome of contemporary luxury. Clean spaces with retro furniture achieving simplicity and warmth to this rather special Austrian hotel. As a city center hotel, the Wiesler has a romantic ‘come hither’ appeal, despite its strong business use. Trendy business travellers will be in their element surrounded by idiosyncratic design. Whilst those on a city break can feel culturally included even when sitting for dinner in the street art inspired “Speisesaal” with painting by Josef Wurm. 

Going one step further to new indulgence and hospitality, the once five star Grand Wiesler has freed itself from ratings and restrictions, points and regulations. Instead it aims to set “new standards as far as additional service is concerned”, very trendy, neccassary and modern of them.

The press shots below show the Wiesler in all its glory with branding by Moodley. Continue reading »

The Apartment creative agency created this NYC apartment , a combination of contemporary design trends (in space, key furniture and light) with 80′s influence. The project combined three smaller apartments to create this spacious uptown residence. Placed on the 61st floor the apartment has stunning views over central park which the design team made the focus of each room. Bleached pine floors add texture but a simple canvas for the dark woods of shelving and units; as well as bursts of colour that appear around the rooms. Continue reading »

Inspired by the Finnish Moomin books by Tove Jansson, this is an exciting interior design project for a family entertainment center. The epic indulgence in colour and three dimensional design adds the surrealism and fantasy that is sought. You may not want this in your home, but it’s surely an inspiration for breaking out of the box of interior design. Continue reading »
