A nice place to be for any occassion. [via Design-Milk]

I can’t help it. I cannot stop reading Design Milks Webpage ever. I do blame them however for constantly breaking what ever christian commandment lust is.

 

Or seven deadly sin or anti goat coveting law ….you get the picture.

 

 

Just want to share where I would like to be with my family this christmas, and easter, and monday thruogh sunday for the rest of my life.

This abode is just exquisite.

 

There you go. I said it. Exquisite.

 

I have not posted about apartment or house for a while but wow.

 

Back the fuck up people this is just the ensuite. Wait for the main bath. Take a breath have a cupcake and then scroll down.

Switchable opaque glass for privacy. Ahhh yepper.

As per Design-Milks article. The actual fitting for the water spout is inserted into the ceiling so the basin’s water alights from the roof and drizzles onto your dainty hands below. cleansing the world with it and possible contributing to world peace – can every one see where I am going with this, this apartment is amazing.

 

Cubby houses. [part 2]

November 4, 2011

I know, I know, we have been over this before but, this time it is true love…..oh wait, that was for the latest edition of mills and boon I am writing.

I love cubby houses.

 

I really just do.

I treat our grown up house like a cubby house. Well I found some new ones, perhaps in a more reasonable price range (when I say reasonable, I mean if I was a single millionaire, and the kids I were entertaining were the ones I bought from an orphanage).

These simple modular cubbys give the kids that certain modern minimalist chillout sopt they deserve.

 

I would order a birch double.

 

check them out over at Play-Modern

I think I really like the little planter boxes as well, gives that appeal that you kids pad is in SoHo NYC or Camperdown SYD

 

Ex Container housing project

October 25, 2011

YSMR Architecture are helping out with this awesome temp housing project for earthquake/tsunami effected areas of Japan, built from ex shipping containers these beautifully liveable  housing options, would have to be a lovely and welcome change from tents and demountable housing.

One of the main things voice by the extremely humble people of the Sendai area, was that privacy is something they missed – with the loss of their OWN home and their OWN belongings. These beautifully designed and affordable temp housing solutions go a long way to helping parts of the community to get back on their feet.

Just put a garden up there.

Nice conversion. Thinking of doing one of the same in the back yard above the clothesline. Who’s in?

 

 

This is truly a beautiful idea. Maybe they should consider it for the narrow waste of metal that has bloomed from the sydney monorailfail. Perhaps we could plant petunias all the way along it or some herb planters, and grow some basil. I really thin it would be a little too narrow to pass off as a jogging track.  - But I thought of the jogging track idea first if Clover is asking.

Architectural Playhouses

Architectural Playhouse via Design Milk.

Makes you want to be able to fit in a cubby house huh?

Our girls have a really cool cubby house thanks to their Aunty’s close friend ‘Santa’. here is some other cool alternatives. IT make me really happy to know that people aren’t totally forgetting children. But sometimes you have to wonder. The dirty looks from the 67.5ers when your children hide in the clothes racks or speak above a level of 10 decibels in Myers. Or they might not for a split second be looking where there are going while walking past a toy shop and the 40 year old with no strings and too much money to  spend on no one but him or herself can’t help but give the 3 year old a disapproving look. Due to the fact that the child didn’t hop out of the road and organise for a ‘king henry style’ trumpet announcement that the king of IKEA and Woolworths Rhodes is approaching, and that all his subjects, (everyone else in sydney in his or her brain) should be aware that he is on his way pushing a trolley (job of his or her lowly servent) to a right ol’ session of pretending to like sushi, especially the one with friend chicken, and that he is definitely wearing a ralph lauren shirt.

clap.                                                    clap.                                                               clap. [insert spinifex hilarious whistle type country western roll by]

mate. (referring to male or female) I am going to share the craziest notion with you.

My children are not going to smear donuts/chips/biscuits/cheese sandwich into the leather interior of you VW Polo, and guess what.

yes.

You wear once a child.

Sorry total rant. Sort of like I had too many (insert popular drink at the moment here, usually something with Jagermeister) and too many ‘Styvo’s’ are they still around. Oh they would have to be, Newtown and North Sydney still exist right?

on with the show.

Here are some cool pictures of Cubby house from Design Milk. if you are not subscribe to the team at Design Milk, or don’t refresh their site on you PC every hour you have not lived. I might have stolen that quote from some 40.00y/o that told me that If i had not eaten at a certain cafe in surry hills then I have not lived.

Another conservation of space and beauty of design. this dwelling is like the anti-Christ to the McMansion that we are used to seeing in the newly developing estates in Sydney.
