| A modern extension to a Victorian house in Australia Posted: 05 Apr 2022 05:00 AM PDT My second house today is half a world away from London but shares so much in common with my first. Both Victorian era homes with light, bright open plan extension. Here the new is separated from the old by a glass walkway and has a strong emphasis on a seamless connection between inside and out. Natural materials abound with a strong connection to the houses original stone. Stanley House by Adelaide-based Georgie Shepherd Interior Design. Photography by Christopher Morrison |
| Victorian splendour meets modern rustic Posted: 04 Apr 2022 09:05 PM PDT “Complete refurbishment of a generously proportioned Victorian family home in East London. Set over 5 floors, the mix of architectural styles is reflected in the interiors with a light, rustic contemporary approach in the lower ground floor and contrasting rich dark Victorian splendour on the upper floors.” Old and new, Victorian and contemporary, light and dark. It’s all moody Victorian glam in the older part of the house breaking out into a modern, earthy almost rustic extension. The best of both worlds. Hackney, London residence by Frank & Faber. |
| Posted: 04 Apr 2022 11:26 AM PDT This home designed by a. Naber Design is a little bit modern, a tad Scandinavian, has some organic elements and is as bright as can be. It’s so cohesive and very much current and fresh for today’s lifestyle. 2 thumbs up on this project. Photography: Charlotte Lea |
| A purple garden in Ravenscourt Park, London Posted: 04 Apr 2022 02:22 AM PDT This garden in Ravenscourt Park was neglected and unloved when its owners moved in, consisting of a shabby lawn and a couple of scruffy shrubs but two promising trees – a Magnolia and an Apple tree. The garden has evolved over the years with structural Buxus pyramids later being replaced with Taxus baccata. The introduction of a Wildflower meadow with a winding path was later reconfigured bringing an abundance of wildlife. The garden of landscape designer Butter Wakefield is simple yet an absolute delight and so pleasing to the eye. Inspiration folder material for sure.
