Lately, I’ve been completely smitten by design from down under (like this project by David Hicks). Australia has some super-serious modern glamour going on! Today’s post features a Melbourne residence by Mim Design. Contemporary furnishings and finishes update a classic Art Deco home. Perhaps most striking is the dining room, with its dark tones and lustrous touches.

The interior of this Art Deco home features original period embellishments that have been accentuated with dramatic monochromatic tones... Deluxe furniture and accessories were specially selected to contrast with the moody tones of the interior. - Mim Design

The floor and walls of the ensuite were lined with straight cut Ocean Blue Travertine adding to the premium feel of the bathroom. - Mim Design
