We really like how Australian architects and designers fit modern design into homes with a long history. Let’s take this newly reconstructed period house in Melbourne: entering the living room it’s hard to believe that the house was built in the 19th century. But in other rooms, you can find charming elements of the architecture…
This small cottage is located just 600 m from the beach in Byron Bay, Australia. And while the continent is thousands of miles away from the United States, designers wanted the home to resemble a New York loft. So here there is a brick wall, industrial style furniture and a decor in dark tones. Milky shades…
This Australian townhouse has a beautiful aristocratic past – in the middle of the 19th century there lived the Austrian artist Eugene von Gerard, and in the 30s of the last century the Lord and Lady Casey.

Imagine a life that takes place in one large open space. Here you cook, watch your favorite TV shows, eat, work and relax. For some, this will seem strange, but not for the owners of this loft in Melbourne wtih internal partitions at all. But there are high ceilings (this is a former industrial house),…
The interiors of this Australian home are quite international: here we have elements of American classics, exquisite wall decor in the spirit of Parisian apartments, and in some rooms even Scandinavian laconism. In addition, vintage items, custom-made furniture, unique decor and art objects are just awesome across the house. A perfect example of modern classics, that…
