Kitchen love

Posted: 31 May 2022 05:00 AM PDT

Why is it that even though I have renovated my kitchen and I’m very, very happy with it I find myself cheating on it? You know. Casting longing looks at other kitchens, saving pictures to Pinterest boards, dreaming and scheming. Like this one by bespoke kitchen makers Boffe Design. (In case you absolutely need to know the island is Admonter Oiled Hacked Spruce.)

Big is not always better

“Whoever said bigger is better certainly hasn't visited our South Melbourne Retreat.“

I love a small inner-city garden. I love clever planning and planting, walls of green, the perfect mix of hard and soft landscaping, the whole idea of a tiny oasis right in the middle of a bustling city and I love this garden by Ian Barker Garden Design.

Heidi Caillier strikes again with yet another project I am absolutely in love with. The combination of patterns and warm colours and that sexy black kitchen are making my heart skip a beat. GORG. (Photos: Haris Kenjar)

A barn complex on Long Island

This barn complex in Bellport has a main barn for sleeping, a small cottage for cooking and eating, and a secondary barn for swimming, exercising and spa. The outdoor space contained by the three structures becomes the heart of the complex that is used in so many different ways throughout the seasons. GIMME ALL THE OUTBUILDINGS!!! WOW this would be a dream! By Cicognani Kalla Architect.
