When it comes to architecture and facades in particular, I have a soft spot: I love brickwork. Thus, I fell instantaneously in love with this Brooklyn based brownstone building. Munich, the city I live in, lacks brownstone buildings. For lovely brickwork I need to travel to the country's north, to cities like Hamburg, Bremen, or Hannover, where Holly from Decor8 lives (one of my sources of inspiration).
In this amazing example, the owners managed to transform this house into a real family-oriented home and revamp its interiors with a tasteful mix of modern and classic furniture and home decor. Can you believe the big living space and kitchen were a parlor?
I love the consistent colour theme with earthy browns and natural hues and how cool are the huge illustrations of the apple and the pear? There is another tiny little highlight for me: The wooden monkey figurine by Danish designer Kay Bojesen. Simply adorable! I love tiny details that catch my attention.

What a great find, Igor - that reading nook is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love this space - did you know it belongs to the Editor in Chief of Martha Stewart Living? No surprise that it's so wonderful, hey! I love the corner seating for dining in the kitchen - it feels cosy and welcoming.
ReplyDeleteThank you:-) I love the reading nook and the artwork! And yes, I read the article over at MSL - wish I had such a lofty space:-))
ReplyDeleteLove the Kay Bojesen Monkey and Arne Jacobsen's Swan. Maybe a wee bit too much brown for me, but that apple & pear really work.
ReplyDeleteOh did you already mention when i can move in??
ReplyDeleteWow - in a word.
ReplyDeleteI love a home like this that is so full of details cleverly woven together to create such an amazing space.
That side table with the brass lamp and 2 candle sticks is just perfection!
The kitchen is the win for me. I love the Tolix bar stools with their industrial edge that ties in so well with the wall colour. You are right - how cool are those two pictures of the apple and pear!
I want those apple and pear prints, immediately!
ReplyDeleteI love this Igor, We don't have such home also here in Malaysia. Bricks is always intriguing material for me.
ReplyDeleteI know, Fenny, I long for brickwork, too!
ReplyDelete@PopArtRockGirlYeah! Too late, I'll take them first:-))))
Hey Igor - I saw this and loved it but couldn't remember where! So thank you for bringing it back to my attention. I particularly remember the lovely splash of the apple and pear - and those orange frames...
