One the things I truly enjoy most is getting an intimate peak at the interior design of an architect’s abode – always a treat! This white Apartment in Reykjavik is a great example, it’s designed and inhabited by Gudmundur Jonsson.
The entire space is only 560 sq. ft. but the all white interior design makes the apartment appear so roomy. Great use of lighting and reflective surfaces to open up the spaces. The addition of a very unique and modern Juliette balcony is quite amazing! The small dabs of contrasting color like the kitchen counter and the flooring ground you in an otherwise all white space. For some, this architects house might be a little too white. I think this is a great monochromatic design – plus it’s in Iceland!

The interior design of this White Flat in New York is crisp and impeccable. The 3400 sq. ft. modern home is designed with exquisite taste and appreciation for modern furniture. From the custom Bocci Chandelier in the living room to the Uglydolls in the kids room, all the pieces are carefully selected for this fabulous white space. The modern design for kids is very well done with just the right touches. A white space doesn’t get better than this – Elegant and Sophisticated!

Renato and Margarida recently sent us some beautiful images of their newly renovated 1850s white flat located in Lisbon Portugal. They did all the apartment renovations themselves and the results are nothing short of stunning!
The showstoppers in their white apartment are the antique pieces of furniture. You can’t help but admire their charm against the serene white backdrop. The couple’s accessories add so much personality throughout their white space. Their use of color in the main living space is spot on and poppin’ with playfulness. There’s ample storage throughout the home to keep all their goodies out of mind and sight.
Oh so jealous of that turquoise antique fireplace and what a great view from their bathroom window! Simple living in Lisbon doesn’t get any better than this.
We love receiving such inspirational contributions from our dear readers.
Thank You R&M! :)

Another great white space designed by our friends over at i29. A couple of months ago, we featured Panta Rhei College by this innovative Dutch Design and Architecture studio.
The concept of this new Amsterdam project was to keep things light and minimally designed – both have been perfectly achieved in this great white home. The space I admire the most is the open bedroom and bathroom area. The panorama of the overgrown plantwall which contrasts the minimalistic white bed and bath provides a freshly intense experience. Adding such an extravagant living wall in one space is impressive plus the plants add greenery and life to an otherwise almost all white design.
Adding a well needed mirror behind the bathroom sink creates a visually appealing effect adjacent the plantwall. The overall space is very well thought out and flows wonderfully.
Many thanks to Jeroen from i29 for sending this one over.
