          MHM loves Slim Aarons’ books such as Poolside with Slim Aarons and Slim Aarons by Slim Aarons.    From the boulevards of Hollywood to the beaches of Italy, and ski resorts of Europe of the 1950’s, 60’s, and 70’s, Aarons chronicled the good life. It is said he made a […]

Lazybones is a vintage inspired clothing and homewares store. We think their new wallpaper concept is pretty special.                                                                   The Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne […]

MHM loves traditional sign painting, a sadly disappearing art form. Developments in digital printing and vinyl decals had forced a dramatic decline in hand-painted signs with consumers turning to cheaper alternatives.     Tristan Kerr is a freelance designer and artist living between France and Australia.  Since graduating design school he has worked in Switzerland as […]

At MHM we are passionate about preserving our architectural heritage.   Tina Clark of Sagitine feels the same way about fashion!  She loves her silk dresses and cashmere sweaters and was motivated to preserve them for her daughters – in style.   Fast forward a few years of research and development, she has launched a […]

MHM loves SMEG’s retro 50s designs.  How clever of the Italian company to combine a vintage product, bright colours and curves, with modern technology.  The range includes both large domestic appliances such as fridges and freezers and smaller products such as toasters and blenders.     MHM particularly loves the flue less gas fire designed […]

MHM Loves Pyrolave, a counter-top material made from enameled lava rock. The rock is extracted by hand from open-air quarries in France and then cut into slabs, glazed with enamel, and fired in a kiln at 1300 degrees. During cooling a smooth crackled finish develops, which is the signature look of lava stone countertop.  The finish […]

It’s no secret we love a bit of metal in our design.  So MHM really loves the idea of these metal shower pans.  So incredibly modern yet with a little touch of the ‘old world’ about them.     Click through to Diamond Spas website to view the copper and stainless steel options.  This company […]

MHM Loves the simplicity of this frameless glass door and window system. We love anything frameless really.       This new product, a frameless glass sliding and stacking system, is ideal for enclosing balconies and outdoor entertainment areas. It has been launched by Hanlon Windows and supplied by hardware technology supplier Hafele.  Click here to […]

MHM really loves these electrical outlets (plus jacks for phone, cable, and data) that are designed to be plastered over, leaving the plug flush with your wall.  Personally, we think those generic rectangular covers are awful.  These would work in a discrete way in any renovation of an old home or give a nice contemporary edge. […]
