The photos I am very happy to share with you today are of a recently completed 4 bedroom private residence at One Hyde Park, Knightsbridge. Enjoy!
A few shots from the Gucci RTW SS2012 collection, from Style.com. I would like one of each, please.
Whilst looking for something else entirely, I stumbled upon these images of the Buenos Aires home of interior designer Tony Chi and his wife Tammy Chou. I’ve never seen any of his residential projects before, as he and his firm specialise in hospitality projects, let alone any of his own homes…so it was a bit of a treat.
I quite like the colour combinations he’s used and the earthy, rustic yet minimal chicness of it. And that art on the Living room wall (2nd image) is amazing…have no idea if its actually applied directly to the wall, which is what it looks like. Even if you don’t like the art, its certainly a talking point.

Its been a wonderful Easter long weekend here in Hong Kong, warm, but a little on the overcast side. If only I had a place like like this to hide out in until the good weather arrives…
My obsession this week is an apartment by Russian Interior Designer, Marina Filippova. Although based in one of my favorite cities, St. Petersbourg, Filippova also has an office in Moscow, and seems to work on projects all over Europe. I’m not particularly skilled at describing what I like about an interior…to me the visual language is so much richer than the verbal one. What I can say is that she clearly had great bones to work with. I love the mix of furnishings and the richness of the timber walls in that first image. And how great are those brass sconces in the second last pic? Drool…
I know, I know, the new Elle Decor has only just hit the stands, but I couldn’t help myself. The London home of Peter Mikic and his partner has made me slightly weak at the knees…so I couldn’t help but share. The man has some seriously good taste in art and furniture. Might have something to do with the fact that he’s Australian, and studied at the same university as myself. Ahem. Some serious eye candy heading your way…
I’m loving this São Paulo apartment by Felipe Hess. A good example of white walls done well. If its eye candy as much you as it is for me, then head on over to Yatzer for more images…
OK, I admit it, these pics are a repeat of a post I did back in July last year…but as it was just published in the latest Architectural Digest with some new images, I just couldn’t help myself. The New York apartment of Claire Weiss was designed by Rees Roberts, and I agree with the owner, it is indeed sublime. The colours are a lot crisper in these images, and the mural which I hadn’t really noticed before is in full view now. And on second viewing, it still makes my heart skip a beat.
A couple of treasures from James Mohn’s online portfolio…the top one has kept me going all day…it looks like such a snug spot to spend a cold winters day…
although knowing Hong Kong, just give it a few months and I’ll be dreaming of somewhere cool and calm, just like this…
