Mim Blueprint | Elsternwick Edwardian Revival

This recent residential projection past times award-winning Melbourne practise Mim Design features a stunning internal transformation of an historic Edwardian home. The owners of DRF Residence, a immature identify unit of measurement of four, wanted to plow their home, which was nighttime amongst cramped unusable spaces, into a modern sanctuary that paid homage to the era’s architectural styling. Mim Design principal Miriam Fanning together with her squad were called on to implement a comprehensive programme roofing the interior architectural framework, styling together with soft furnishings, which resulted inwards an solely novel look. 

One of my favourite elements of this stunning domicile is the curved fireplace inwards the living room amongst built inwards shelving. The incredible chair is the Almora Armchair designed past times Nipa Doshi together with Jonathan Levien for B&B Italia.

The goal of Mim Design was to do a identify unit of measurement domicile that non precisely met the client’s needs aesthetically but too created a practical identify unit of measurement domicile where each room together with infinite served a purpose. By studying how the identify unit of measurement lived, their demand on space, storage together with passion for entertaining, the pattern squad reimagined the entire floorplan, gutting the domicile together with creating an entire novel interior. 

The Alphabeta Trio Pendant past times Luca Nichetto for Hem provides a send on of playfulness to the sophisticated dining area.

The eight-month internal renovation across the entire solid was beautifully enhanced amongst a layering of materials. A soft palette of greys together with off-whites amongst accents of dark added a timeless brilliance to the interior, respecting the Edwardian architecture. In stark contrast to the home's previously heavy finishes, marble benchtops, soft gray cabinetry together with white-oiled oak floors lighten upwards the space. Creating a illuminated experience throughout, Miriam says "the best matter is the clients dearest living in that location now, it’s similar a breath of fresh air.”

I dearest the mix of nighttime light-green together with brass accents inwards this minute cosy living space. The Palette Table is designed past times Jamie Hayon for &Tradition and the 637 Utrecht XL Armchair is past times Gerrit Thomas Rietveld. 

The sleeping room showcases a refined elegance together with the continuation of jewell tones, amongst nighttime navy bedding together with touches of velvet.
