Cozy Modern Sneak Peek

I'll be back later on this morning with a Mother's Day DIY that I just need to finish taking pictures of but wanted to drop in with a sneak peek of this cute Vancouver home featured in the latest issue of Style at Home. Photographed by Janis Nicolay (Pinecone Camp) and the home of Jo-Ann Stansfield, it's designed by the talented Riesco & Lapres Interior Design. Lots of cheeriness happening here (Janis always seems to capture that so well). You can see more of the photo shoot at Janis' blog here.

Sneak Peek! April Inside Out Magazine

We have a sneak peek inside the April issue of Inside Out Magazine featuring the super colourful Sydney home of Courtney, an unreformed art lover. Courtney mentions, “I needed maximum wall space for all the artwork, so there are skylights and high windows. Every time [architect] David [Boyle] came to me with a new window in the design, I'd scowl at him and ask for more wall space.” We love the yellow bathroom which Courtney says, “It’s like a folly and I love it. I decided to not only go the bright yellow, but to go all yellow.”

Styling for this photo shoot by Vanessa Colyer Tay and photos by Brigid Arnott. The April 2013 issue of Inside Out (will be available March 13 – tomorrow in Australia)!  Click here to become a subscriber or visit Zinio.com for a digital copy. Cant wait to check it out!

Cool Antlers

Well it's another short week here - things should be back on track and in full swing starting next week but I thought I'd drop in with a little post since I'm loving this space so much from the latest issue of Covet Garden.   OCAD grad and photographer, Greg White (no last names in Covet Garden) has a rather eclectic space filled with fun art galore and I couldn't help but fall in love for that bicycle handle bar and seat(?) above his mantle that is fashioned into a antler type thing by Alex Jowett.  Yeah.  Love.  Also that pinball machine piece in the fireplace.  This space makes me want to be this guys friend and hang out and make crafts all day. It also reminds me of my days in Montreal hanging out with my cousin and his friends creating stuff (mostly music and super8's) and painting murals on the doors of my rented McGill ghetto apartment. Check out a few more choice images below and the rest at covetgarden.com.  Photography by Valerie Wilcox.
