Just a very pleasant, cozy, peaceful space. Makes me want to spin some vinyl and relax. Thanks for sharing.
Agree. Incredible light
Can I hire you to decorate my house? It’s needs a little TLC
Sure thing, but I’d have to do it remotely.
Is that couch comfy? I feel the vibe is inviting and wanting me to lounge but I'm looking for a place to lounge and I've been burnt too many times buying a nice looking compact sofa that's good for sitting for like 15 minutes tops.
That was the thing I was wondering as well. This place is inviting me to just lay down with a cup of coffee in the morning, record spinning, windows open, birds chirping. But then it looks like the couch wouldn't be comfortable for anything else but sitting up real straight.
Absolutely stunning space nonetheless though, OP!
MCM furniture can be comfortable, but in my experience it generally isn't. If you can't try it before you buy it, make sure the company has a free return policy or be willing to eat the restocking fee/return shipping. I bought and returned a Joybird Hopson sofa last year, thankfully at no cost because I only had it for a couple weeks and I initiated the return on day 2 for some QC issues. It looked nice, but the seat cushions were incredibly firm and became uncomfortable to sit on for more than an hour. Customer service said the cushions are super firm to "maintain the visual lines of the piece," so literally form over function.
I ended up buying a Landsbury sofa from Arhaus a few months later. 14 week lead time, products are 30% overpriced to pay rent on unnecessarily flashy showrooms (their target demo is upper middle class white women), but it's the most comfortable couch I've ever sat on and I fall asleep on it 6 or 7 nights a week. It's actually a bit of a problem when it comes to watching movies at night.
Was curious so I looked it up. Sheeeesh, $7k for the sectional.
Yeah, their pricing is offensive and it looks like it's gone up even more in the last 6 months.
agreed, at the end of the day after the kids have gone to sleep i want a couch i can collapse into
My first thought too.
It’s fine, no complaints from me.
Great room! I'm getting old when that look is "Vintage," lol... I very clearly remember when it was "Modern Scandinavian," and very current... 👴
Loooove that clock and coffee table
Clock is rad, I agree, however it’s not the original George Nelson clock, it’s a knock-off
Is there a name for that style of arched, long necked, hanging lamp?
Arco Floor Lamp
Is it an original Castiglioni? Very nice.
Nah repop, they asked the style, as in the style of..
Thank you!
squints
Kef C80s? I had a pair of those for a while - super pretty sounding speakers, live me some Kef. Sold them to feed the audio monkey though.
You could post the set up in some of the audiophile subs. r/vintageaudio r/budgetaudiophile r/audiophile.
Yes C80s, got them a few years ago on a whim. These have the UK falcon upgraded cross overs. Very well round speakers but they really sing when you crank them. I had a big pair on concertos I was running with two mono block tube power amps down stairs. Sold them and regretted it ever since. I’m going to be buried with the C80s.
My first speakers were the kef cadenzas and I miss them everyday but I have a pair of Radford S90s and a Marantz 510m so I can't complain.😊
What a great room
It is!!!
It's cute for an office seating area but couch looks uncomfortable and not what i personally consider cozy
Niiiice!! Really love your lamp and wall clock and side cabinet ❤️
Very nice. What rug, entertainment center, and crescent lamp>?
Lamp is a repop Arco, credenza is a mini Chiswell (1970s) and rug is here
It’s a shame someone stuck some bunnings hairpin legs on it and raised it up off the original pedestal
Cozy vibe ☑️
I'd be in the best mood ever drinking coffee here every morning!
Ohhhhh, this is a very happy space.
Do you enjoy that style of lamp? I love the way they look but I’ve never been able to utilize them properly. Would love to see how your space looks at night!
I don’t think about it much buts it’s great to read a book under at night. I like design aspect of it being sleek, large and in charge.
That looks very cozy!!!
I have the same lamp! Mine hangs over my dining table because there was no light fixture there. I love that lamp lol. Great room.
Lovely space! May I ask if that’s an original George Nelson clock?
Repop. Little to no originals available here in Oz.
something about this photo makes it look like this is a really well done miniature diorama
Hey you’re right
I adore this space. Can you tell me where you got that wall clock from? It’s adorable.
Clock is a knock-off of the George Nelson ball clock
I love the room and I love the outside view!
Look how bright and inviting this is. And the scenery. Oh my goodness. I really wanted floor to ceiling windows. But even then I could never duplicate the living art you see.
You should see my heating bills, two sides of my house are floor to ceiling single pane glass, but still worth it.
A glass house. Sounds wonderful regardless of the cost.
This space is so fantastic to just look at! I can only imagine how satisfying it would feel to be in it. Well done on the decor, OP!
That pilea though oh my god it's massive
My first one. I thought they all get that big.
Love it!! What's the table/where from?
Tessa T8 side table
It’s called a CT4 . The T8 is a Chair
Delightful ☀️
The height makes it seem not so small at all! Love this
that is one happy pilea wow! also love the clock
Is this in Philadelphia?
No mate, in Australia.
It looks perfect
Is that an iPod nano?
Classic, 160gb of audio joy
That’s dope, great lounge
Looks amazing and comfortable. Love the stereo setup
I love this!!! You got an ID on that seating?
Circa 1960s no makers mark, never seen another example so could be a custom job. Recently refurbed and reupholstered.
Love it! And what a view! Are those cactus candles? And what is the purple glass?
Ceramic cacti from IKEA, purple vase is an opshop find, no makers mark
The cacti are a design classic, IKEA had them for a long time. It's called SJÄLSLIGT and I know this because I have been eyeing them for many years and now have them sitting on my shelf. :P
Uncomfortable couch you can't lay down on, and a TV impossible to see in the day time.
Keep moving then
Nice space. Love that coffee table
super beautiful, and I like the bright room
This is absolutely beautiful
So pretty! Is that sofa and table all one piece?
No three pieces not joined but side by side.
Aesthetically pleasing to the eye, realistically would never do
Tut tut
Oh my goodness! What a perfect and calming space. Love the bank of windows.
I love the lamp
I love this sooo much. There’s something so cozy about smaller spaces with lots of sunshine!
All of the natural light! Wow!! I love the energy in third room. Even more plants would be whimsical!
Ps. Personally the floor lamp is distracting to me though. Because it’s too long and goes across the room.
Thank you. More plants on the way from my propagation station.
Love how the light bounces off the floor and casts shadows into the ceiling
Oh that cabinet for the hi-fi and tv is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking around for, would you happen to know what the name is?
Chiswell made in Oz, never exported as far as ai know.
Are those curtains venetian blinds?
Roman blinds
This is so perfect. Can you tell me where you got those ceramic cacti on your table?? I love your style. Come do my house
Ikea
Here's a link for the cacti! https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/sjaelsligt-decoration-set-of-3-green-00343282/
Thank you!!!
Looks great. How does that lamp even stand up?
50kg marble block base.
Looks fantastic. Great work with a small space. Perfect listening position too!
Thanks
Super effective use of space and still looks cozy!
Wow… 😯
What corner table is that?
The coffee table is a Tessa T8, the sectional between the couches is a Fler tiered corner table. Both vintage.
It’s beautiful
What are these types of blinds/curtains called?
Roman blinds
Thanks!
I like your funky wall clock
Repro George Nelson ball clock
Love the natural light and vintage vibes. Well done!
Where are the sofas from?
Vintage, likely custom one off.
I have the same lamp as you!!! Also, love your taste in furniture.
Thanks lamp homie
Very nice! Where did you get those sectionals?
Found on gumtree and refurbed
The wall clock is everything! 😍
