Color and Inspiration in a Small Australian Apartment Designed by Cassie Potts

We received a colorful and inspiring small apartment from designer Cassie Potts, founder of M.dart Interiors. Here is her personal description of the crib:”I moved into my small one bedroom apartment with my Pugalier ‘Duck’ only a few months ago, after returning from 4 years in London. It required a lot of imagination to enable the small space to accommodate my extensive collection of eclectic trinkets and artwork from around the world. My style is a fusion of warehouse/industrial-chic and Mexican-kitsch all encapsulated in a sun-bathed Australian beach-side apartment. Even though there is barely an inch of wall or floor not adorned with a brash curios from Mexico or some graffiti-art brought off the street in East London; white walls and shelving help to show-case the bold techni-colour décor whilst not creating a sense of claustrophobia or overwhelming aesthetic-chaos. Despite the small space, the careful arrangement of design objects has created different scenes that separate and define living areas in the apartment”. We appreciate the originality and overall happy vibes this well planed apartment inspires and are looking forward to see if your comments are as positive.

Cool 38 Sqm Potts Point Apartment by Anthony Gill Architects

The Potts Point Apartment displays a cheerful atmosphere in an urban setting. The redesigning of the small apartment included the need for transforming a 38 square meter crib into a space filled with light and joy. Located in Sydney, Australia, the apartment is situated in a Harry Seidler Building in Potts Point. The family living here – a young couple and their child – needed a space that would suit their lifestyle and ensure they have a high comfort level. The apartment was transformed into a place for family time and cheerful living: “The existing joinery (not original) was demolished leaving only the masonry walls to the bathroom which remains untouched. A new joinery element was inserted to re-configure the space, addressing the issues of privacy, storage and a lack of living space inherent in an apartment of this size.” All the available space was used to its full potential taking into account the family’s needs and wishes. Do you think that the architects from Sydney-based Anthony Gill Architects did a good job?
