I Need a Yurt

Loved this NY Times article featuring Apartment Therapy founder Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan's New York property. It helped me realize that I, too, would like a few yurts in my future backyard...

Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan Do Shelter Island Right

 I'm loving Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan's "part modernist fantasy, part rustic beach retreat" on Shelter Island as well as the amusing article Doonan himself wrote about it for Architectural Digest. Read it here!

Patric Johansson

I could spend hours looking through Patric Johansson's portfolio... oh wait. I just did. He has captured some really beautiful spaces, hasn't he?

This and That

Outdoor Envy

More of an indoor/outdoor envy when it comes to the home of Heidi Middleton, Creative Director and Head Designer of Sass & Bide. That gorgeous view of the South Pacific you'll find in practically every room of the house doesn't hurt either...

Outdoor Envy

 A few warm and inviting porches and balconies for you this Monday morning! Also worth checking out: the former airplane hanger now home to Giampaolo Sgura and Miguel Arnau as seen in 3 and a closer look at how Anna-Malin created such a lovely space in her own backyard as seen in 5.

Keke and Love Fern Paella

So glad I stumbled on very talented Melbourne-based artist Kirra Jamison's side project Keke. According to Kirra, Keke is "inspired by the people I know, the places they cook and the food we share" - how lovely is that? It doesn't hurt that the homes are as awesome as this and the love fern paella looks equally delicious...
