One of Australia’s most luxurious properties, valued at a cool $68million, is up for sale.

Another stamp in the passport this week, with a trip to Greenland ( population a tiny 57,564), to check out some of the homes there.  According to some research I found, the traditional colours for houses are a mid green, a dark sky blue, canary yellow, and a burgundy red. The colour-coding dates back to largely pre-literate [...]

I have an overwhelming desire to get to Cuba and photograph some of the beautiful homes there. However, there’s some talented Flickr members who’ve beat me to it… Robin Thom Ponomo ***Ellen*** d.zanzinger Henk & Anna Henk & Anna Robin Thom Sly Robin Thom

I like having plenty of space at home, mainly because I have so much stuff and need somewhere to put it all. But big houses just aren’t as cute to look at as teeny tiny ones, are they?

I’ve gotten sick of the piles of papers and possessions that cover our table and decided to work out a way to divide them up, so headed off to Bunnings on Saturday morning and found these craft crates, some blackboard paint and a few other bits and pieces. A coat of undercoat: And ta-da! Blackboard [...]

I’ve decided to take a  break from HouseAHolic holidays in the third world today and head north to Scotland. I grew up in Tasmania, possibly the most ridiculously long way from Scotland imaginable while still staying on Earth, but my Mother (a Scot) took us there every couple of years for holidays.  All those early treks around run-down [...]

It’s off to South Yarra today for this lurvely home which is a crazy blend of Victorian design and a contemporary extension. The listing refers to it as a ‘stunning marriage’ as opposed to a crazy blend. Real Estate Agents, bless ‘em.

I heard once that if you can’t say anything nice, say nothing at all. “Nothing at all.” This place is for sale in Palm Springs, California.
