ROOMS
1 SIMPLY DARLINGHURST Leave your passport in the drawer. In buzzy inner
Sydney, this stylish studio borrows a little of the Scandinavian aesthetic to breathe
new life into an old warehouse. We love the enormous steel-framed windows, soaring
white-painted ceilings and timber floors. The dado-style paint scheme, with the bottom
half of the room in warming charcoal, makes things hug-me homely, while the area
above, in crisp, airy white, makes those chic windows really pop.
2 FROND EMBRACE A little shot of green, such as this glossy monstera leaf,
brings nature indoors. And how cool is that terrazzo-style bench and splashback?
3 LIGHT INDUSTRY The adjustable pendant over the table creates a focal point,
while also casting light over your gourmet pizza (the kitchen is nifty but who wants
to cook when there’s a smorgasbord of take-out options close by?) That so-retro
Panthella-style table lamp and the floor lamp deliver instant ambience.
4 ENJOY THE FLIGHT All the Scandi-style furniture is as light as AirBnb – just
look at the credenza on legs, the crisscross dining table and retro-style sofa, which
converts to a bed. From $210 a night. http://www.airbnb.com.au/rooms/8583807 A
