After a ground up rebuild, the wonderful Carla Ridge Residence in Beverly Hills needs a new owner. This dream home is a symphony of white and grey: both the interior and the exterior are dominated by the two colours. When night falls, the house brights up but those few minutes of dusk show why this house is more than a home: it is a pavilion on top of the city, complete with a breathtaking panoramic view of the skyline. The house borrows colours from the passing of the days and night, like a chameleon. At dusk, the interiors catch a beautiful shade of blue.

In the garden, concrete sets the trend: the infinity edge pool on one side and a terrace where you could enjoy a beverage in the frisk air. Wherever you stand in the house, the natural light follows you through glass walls or large windows. Chain maille served as an inspiration for the house`s facade: a beautifully crafted wall of chain maille creates an interesting design detail. Five bedrooms and six baths, generous and fabulous clothing storage, living spaces and kitchen – all of the rooms of the house have incredible details.

We’ve gotten a lot of messages from Freshome asking from advice on how to deal with electric wires. In a small home, they are usually a major issue. This is why we try to find as many ideas as possible that help hiding the displeasing and inelegant power cables. To this end, today’s post features an innovative product that we recently received via e-mail from Designcord. The Autorewind Cable Reel has a total of four fixed sockets and 10 meters of wire. Once the green button on its surface is activated (by hand or by foot), the rewind function allows the wire to retract. Simple and practical. The device also comes equipped with child protection and overheating protection. Be sure to check out the two videos in order to fully understand how the product works.

This urban modern house was designed by Bassam el Okeily and Karla Menten in Bilzen, Belgium. The architects did an amazing job bringing a transparent mysteriousness to the facade of this home which is made entirely of glass and behind it layered and protruding angles, cut outs for the two balconies. Their philosophy is rooted with the concept of suspending time to strip environments down and appreciate the beauty of simplicity. This idea is translated with the abstract image of broken mirror pieces paused in mid-air. Pretty deep stuff! And the result is a sculptural masterpiece behind a home front that created an ultra modern and moody statement by the multi-colored lighting scheme and peek-a-boo effect from the street. I guess we simpletons can think of it as a grand foyer, or simply an artistic distraction on an otherwise normal residential street! Also we aren’t completely sure what percentage of rooms in this house allow its residents some sort of privacy, but looking at some of the interior images we wouldn’t get too worried.

Pilar’s Story Toyshop designed by Elia Felices is definitely not an ordinary kids” store. Located in Mataró (Barcelona), the toy outlet covers and area of 170 square meters and resembles a miniature fantasy world. Here is the official description from the designer: “The facade consists of the frame of a mirror that marks off the interior and simultaneously invites us to cross it to enter the shop. Another circular form joined to the arch contains the backlit logotype of the establishment. The visitor passes through the frame to a fantasy world, as in the children’s story of “Alice through the looking glass”. Together, these frontal elements act as the threshold, marking the frontier between our world and the world of fantasy. The colours that personalize the project are the lime-green already present in the frame of the front and pink fuchsia. Both contribute happiness, vitality and energy to the project, in addition to combining to the perfection with the surrounding white of the whole space.  The above-mentioned colours give small touches of fantasy that are further complemented by the lighting.” The toyshop was designed not only to attract children, but people of all ages. We know we would certainly take a look inside if we were around.

Home décor that brings in curvilinear forms, soft colors and an appreciation for asymmetry are all feminine decorative qualities that don’t focus on gender. If you love the feel of free flowing interiors and subtle hues over bold ones, your décor style may be fit for feminine qualities. Read on to see how your home can benefit from an eclectic mix of feminine amenities and décor.

  • Soft muted colors: While some would think that only using pink adds a feminine appeal, soft muted tones of any color are feminine. Thus is the beauty of the color spectrum. Choose your favorite color and use a muted or grayed down version of this color to create a soft palette of color in any room. Pair up the colors with darker or contrasting accents to give the room weight and visual interest.
  • Curvilinear form: Feminine decorative qualities lend themselves to free form and curving lines as opposed to strict geometries. While modern interiors are usually more linear, traditional and romantic décor styles tend to be more feminine. Script and scroll wrought iron headboards and ornate details in wood, metals and stone work wonderfully in feminine interiors.  Consider using natural elements such as lighter woods and leather to counteract soft materials and lines.

  • Lush materials and fabrics: Who doesn’t love diving into a sumptuous bed of downy comforters and fluffy pillows? Try using soft materials and fabrics to soften up the hard lines of furniture. Accent rugs that have plush texture, along with touchable textiles are feminine qualities in your main living spaces. Depending on your style, pair feminine decorative features to masculine ones to give each room its own dynamic feel.

  • Random geometry: Do you prefer asymmetry as opposed to all your decorative elements aligning? Feminine décor enjoys the randomness of design and asymmetry, rather than symmetrical groupings. For displaying collections and grouping pictures, use this generic rule of thumb. If your personal style is more of a free spirit, and you prefer organized chaos, you will love feminine décor cues throughout your home.
  • Playful pairings: Since feminine colors lend themselves more to pastels than bold solids, don’t think that you can’t pair colors, and patterns together for a cohesive marriage of aesthetics. Light pastel colors pair up beautifully with dark browns, blues and even black. Feminine décor doesn’t have to be used throughout every element of your space. If you choose to use light colors on your walls, then carry it through to your textiles, and mix and match the interplay of colors of darker ones in the accessories and flooring.

Don’t be put off by the term ‘feminine’ when it comes to décor.  It symbolizes an idea and mood, rather than a physical characteristic. From the muted colors and random lines of furniture and finishes to the use of soft materials and textiles, your home can benefit from these amenities. Get inspiration through your favorite online home décor resources. Believe it or not, every space usually pairs multiple décor styles. Try and pick out the feminine ones that resonate with you.

If the kitchen is the heart of a home, then the dining room must be the stomach! Let’s face it, the style and ambiance of your dining room influences your guests’ dining experience and almost always makes your meals taste a little better, if decorated with a little TLC. Rustic decor almost always tells the story of a home well manicured and where old furniture is kept well and alive. The perfect dining room should evoke and inviting feeling while shaking up your appetite for a divine cuisine throw down! However, there are certain elements particular to a rustic dining room that guarantee your dinner parties will put Martha Stewart to shame.

Below are some fabulous HD finds by the eloquent styles of Roche Bobois, as well as some friendly tips to help you refine your decorating skills in a rustic dining space.

Tips for setting a Rustic Dining Room

The Rustic look is a perfect balance of masculinity and femininity. You take the simple and unsophisticated woodsy elements of country living and add a feminine touch by complimenting and giving each piece a voice.

Keep your walls and furniture light in weight and color, unfinished and whimsical in nature. Think bare essentials, and the more imperfections the better!

With dark wood or contemporary dining furniture you can transform the style with a nice weathered look by sanding it lightly or painting it a creamy pastel color first and then sanding it.

Add textural interest with a soft faux finished wall, an antique area rug, or by stenciling a simple pattern on the doors of your hutch and/or buffet.

If your resources are limited you can use whatever furniture you do have and accessorize with rustic objects. Throw a handmade crocheted or lace tablecloth over a buffet for an authentic touch or hang dried flowers in artistic way on the wall.

It’s OK to mix old with new objects like taking a colored glass bowl and filling it with acorns or pine cones. You can also fill a ceramic vase with wildflowers and set it on the dining table for a rustic tone. Just remember, thoughtful simplicity is key…

This unusual visitor’s center was designed by architect Nuno Ribeiro Lopes and is actually a make-over of the old existing building with the same purpose in Graciosa Island, Portugal. It is in this modern looking building that travelers get information about the sulfur cavern in the area. Built above the water and surrounded by natural craters, this glass construction is truly spectacular. The visitor’s center has a total of two levels. The bottom one seems buried in the ground and houses the bathrooms and an exhibition area, while the second floor accommodates a wonderful spot for observing the landscape. We like the fact that the construction looks modern, but not too flashy and that functionality was the key factor when rebuilding this center. What do you think? Does it look attractive enough from a tourist’s point of view?- via designboom
