It's often hard to find time to design around a television setup, but it's even harder to do it when all you have is a tiny flat to work with. However, our Australian comrade Filip has come to terms with both areas of hardship and created one of the most amazing spaces we've seen in a while. Check out his Flickr for more awesome!
We love how his couch softly creates a divider between his kitchen and living room, executing serene contrast filled with warm, leather fabrics - we just can't help but to drool like crazy! More photos of his marvelous flat can be found on his Flickr.

wow.
Could anyone remind me, how that leather chair is called again? I always forget to ask...
Are there "Look-A-Likes" to that chair, because it is probably very expensive...
Thanks in advance
I believe that's the Eames Lounge Chair... but I'm not sure what kind the main seating one is..
take a bunch of classics and put them together in a room and of course it'll look 'nice' but totally unimaginative.
This is an excellent example of why furniture needs to be carefully considered. In this case, buying furniture from "mid century modern" designers, does not create the mid century appeal.
Each piece would work better off by itself or with one other carefully chosen piece, than competing for attention.
Too many chefs.
the_1,
They're the 670 chair and the 671 ottoman by the Eames .
Very well designed,elegant and one of the most comfortable chairs among the mid-century icons.
I have the original one sitting alone in the corner of our guest bedroom, it didn't fit anywhere in the living area(not that it fits in the guest room but I don't have any other place for it ..it's either there or in the garage)and didn't want to force it in niether the family nor the living just because it is the the Eames chair .Lately,I'm seeing it everywhere,maybe it is the right time to list mine @CL and buy a small upholstered chair for the guest room..something like Ikea's Karlstad chair.
Jennah, if its an authentic eames chair be aware that its worth a considerable sum, and make sure you get it valued before you sell.
hmmmm that's an interesting point about "too many chefs" . Now I see why it sometimes get a little 'dry' to see too many pieces at once. Does anyone know where the credenza (media stand of sorts) came from? I love that.
Jennah flip the Eames chair over and look for a Herman Miller furniture label... if it's there, you can probably sell it for a lot of cash or hold on to it as a valuable antique.

I have to disagree with a number of you. This is how to coordinate and use mid-century modern furniture tastefully. It is edited and cohesive. Sure there are a lot of iconic pieces but combined with the natural light, dark floors, and white walls, he successfully created a warm and inviting living space that looks high end. This could easily be an interior on Central Park West. I believe that is a Florence Knoll sofa. Many of the interiors on this site that have midcentury pieces look thrown together for the sake of owning iconic pieces without a point of view (e.g., apartmenttherapy / Roomarks: Inspirational Interiors Matthew 9.21.08). I love it. Well done.
Can someone identify the coffee table?
mikelay: The coffee table is designed by Isamu Noguchi. It can be found on a number of sites including highbrowfurniture.com and retromodern.com.
It's conventional good taste, which is either good or bad, depending on which half of the description ("conventional" or "good taste") seems more pertinent to you.
Who said "design is 80% opinion", the above comments some are valid some aren't taking into consideration the power of choice. The owner of this apartment obviously love's the classics most look original the Knoll style Sofa looks like a repro. interioraddict.com do a similar version which can be viewed in the London showroom. This company offer reproduction classic at a fraction of the licensed items.
