Coppin-Penthouse-06-800x481

Overlooking the city of Victoria, Australia, the Coppin Penthouse is a testament to luxurious living. Sleek lines dominate as the simple aesthetic the penthouse seems to prefer, as if the whole thing were built to morph into one specific shape (of your dream home). Most importantly though, imagine all the parties you could host in this setting! In fact, I bet that's part of the contract to live in the penthouse.

Hudson-St-11-800x533 

Bagnato Architects designed this opulent residence located in Melbourne, Australia, which is not only big and beautiful, but the result of the conversion of an Anglican church from 1892. How cool is that? Nowadays, the Hudson Street residence boasts incredibly tall ceilings, enviable windows, and my favorite: a great attic.

ValcucineKitchen1

No kitchen is perfect. It's either too small, the cupboards too low down, the cabinets too wonky, the window too high up or the table too bulky. Not to mention the pots and pans always swap places, the floor is never clean and the dishes pile up, because your boyfriend is untrainable. Do you agree with me? Then we're both wrong. Because the Valcucine Logica Kitchen fixes every problem before there even is one. Every appliance has a place, every activity has a workstation. There are iPad chargers, built-in scales and taps by the stove. If you have a massive amount of land in your name and a thirst to home cook, check in with Valcucine.

Your grandma handpicked her wallpaper in 1930, your mother picked up colored paint from home depot but you, millennial, can have your wallpaper digitally printed onto vinyl for a wall covering that truly reflects your personality. Glamora specializes in this style of wallpaper for interior design perfection. Any image can be designed or altered to become your next living room view. If wallpaper tells the story of each generation, then Glamora is doing it right. Photographers with big egos could even choose their own work as an ever-displayed portfolio, but you'll probably just choose a google image of Grumpy Cat.

thermostack_heating_system_adriano_design_2b

It looks like your nerdy brother's stereo system but it's not. ThermoStack is a modular heating system made from a stack of cubes and created by Adriano Design. The cube shapes make the system easy to assemble and move around as you see fit so you can be surrounded by futuristic heat all winter long. ThermoStack may not be as cosy as the conventional fireplace we're used to seeing in greeting cards but it was the winner of the 2013 ISH Design Plus Award so it's doing something right.
