Splash of Colour Friday | Guest House Jackson Hole | Emily Summers

Welcome to the end of another week my dear readers! To end it colourfully and with a smile on your face I suggest you check out the interior’s work of Emily Summers and this Guest house in Jackson Hole, WY. She is a street artist living in Brooklyn and is famed for her playful and colourful work. I particularly love the second last picture splash of yellow carpet. Genius… More from here… Happy weekend!

DIY | Painting abstract artwork

Another amazing idea from Wit & Whistle. I always say I will do my own canvas artwork and never find the time. But I love this idea and I actually might try it on the weekend. This is how they did it at Wit & Whistle and you can easily make your own with a canvas, a paint brush, 1/2″ masking tape, and three colors + white acrylic paint. Just tape up your canvas every which way, paint a gradient of each color in the taped segments, remove the tape, and enjoy!

FASHION

Shoot: HauteMuse | Model: Miranda Kerr | Photographer: Nino Muñoz

Marvelous Miranda yet again– Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr graces the March cover of Middle Eastern magazine HauteMuse looking chic in Chanel.

A smokey eye by makeup artist Munemi Imai and disheveled locks by hair stylist Tuan Anh Tran complete the glam ensembles.

Interior Design | Ashley Stark Manhattan Apartment

I was excited to see Ashley Stark’s new apartment in Elle Decor so please feast your eyes on this .

What do you think of her style? For me, it’s that mix of periods and textures, but neutral, glam and totally sophisticated. Love the colors, the “new meet the old” furniture, and that dressing room is just perfect! Ashley Stark, creative director of Stark, is one lucky lady full of talent!

I suppose when you are heiress to a high-end carpet empire you can afford to have two living rooms in Manhattan.

All I know is that there are too many pieces in this room that I love!

Architecture | Loft Renovation | Lakonis Architekten

ARCHITECTURE | INTERIOR

Project: Loft Renovation | Architects: Lakonis Architekten | Location: Vienna, Austria

‘Rarely do architects in Vienna, Austria get the opportunity that Lakonis Architekten did with the renovation of the top floors of this historic building. They were able to build a modern loft space in an original building without compromising the historical aspects of what the location brings. At first glance you see a classic four-story corner building; then looking up you spot a modern roof structure that is made of steel, wood, and concrete.’ DesignMilk
