extensions....in black

i've always liked the idea of a white house with a contemporary black extension, to really divide the old and new. i found the following posted on desire to inspire. i'm not really in a position to be doing an extension but i can always dream!

love love love black weatherboards and black paneling!

images were posted on desire to inspire, originally from huso hem and elle decor italy

a bit of good photography

 

 

i really like discovering new websites by crawling from blog to blog. today i came across a tricia joyce inc - artist representative. there looks like there is no common thread between the different pictures above, yet tricia joyce inc represents these brilliant photographers. a lot of fashion yet a came across some good lifestyle and location shots. something to help me dream for the night. i am so over tired and need to go to bed desperately yet i am blogging to avoiding cleaning my house before going to bed. and no, i don't have time to clean on the weekend as i am off to help my brother and sister paint their house one and a half hours away so they can get it on the market in time for the spring auctions. i still haven't finished the front of my house! what the hell am i doing???

a little contemporary....but still white

I am not clean enough for this! My clutter doesn't work with contemporary homes. It's a shame, they are so eye catching.

Mid Century Modern

Although i am currently in love with houses which have a country feel, twist of french and a bit of rustic, and heaps of white, i am still in love with what i refer to as classic American mid 1940s or post war modernism. I have no idea what it is really referred to, yet a brilliant original example is that of american architect Philip Johnson's Glass House.

The pictures above are of my favourite house of all time. It was designed by Natalie Raw, when she was only 24 years old for her families property at Lake Rotoiti in New Zealand. I saw it in Australian Vogue Living July/August 2006, which showcases what i think are more flattering images. It is the pavilion style, the flat simple roofs, black and the outdoors almost appearing as artwork as it provides such an amazing backdrop.
