A family of 6 wanted a comfortable, unique, family-friendly home and turned to Vancouver interior designer Amber Kingsnorth of Māk Interiors to make their wishes come true. And she did, with some stunning custom tile in the kitchen, custom millwork and some bold wallpaper. (Did you see this project of hers?)

This simple and modern structure is my ideal new-build home (minus all the corrugated steel on the exterior – I am not a fan of that stuff). Concrete floors so cats can run amok as they do and I won’t have to scream, pale wood and white walls as a lovely backdrop for furnishings and art while not losing focus of the architecture, some exposed beamed ceilings, an abundance of large windows, and a streamlined outdoor space. Another successful project in Seattle by SHED Architecture & Design. (Check out past features here and here)

Tucked up under these open stairs is a clever little office space while further bespoke cabinetry helps overcome the limitations of this narrow open plan living dining kitchen space. North Fitzroy Residence by Chamberlain Architects. Crafted architectural solutions to enrich daily life.

Beautiful light spills through French doors making its way further into this apartment through internal windows and cut outs, reflecting off glass walls and slick services. White walls and pale floors lift and brighten the space while a colour palette of greys and blues and greens calms and relaxes. The re-design of this old flat in the heart of Barrio de Salamanca, Madrid has created a cool retreat from the harsh Spanish sun. Minimalist style for maximum impact. Ayala House by ÁBATON.

I could not stop at just one project by London interior designer Hubert Zandberg. This pied-à-terre in Le Marais, Paris is just about the coolest little apartment I have ever seen. Once again, it is fabulously eclectic but this time a bit more theme-y, with industrial touches, and a colour palette of black, grey, white and green. So cool!!!

This space above proves Hubert is the KING of fantastic bathrooms. Another one I am totally swooning over.
