I’m finishing the week the way I started it with a dark and moody Copenhagen apartment by Rue Verte. Stylish modern living in a pared back classic shell.

“Simply, tenfiftyfive exists to create intelligent and ‘real’ family homes that facilitate the greatest luxury of all – easy and highly enjoyable daily living.”

They forgot to say beautiful, light filled, stylish and fabulous but I guess that’s obvious.

Ah Maximalism! Never having to say no to surrounding yourself with what you love. Art, pottery, books and the collections, from treasures to not so mundane mementoes like the remnants of a modern day Grand Tour. It should be chaos but instead this 900 sq ft apartment in Gramercy Park, NY is a celebration of its owner. Design largesse by Alexandra Loew.

Over the holidays I came across this mansion in La Rochelle, France and was immediately smitten. You can’t really go wrong with “mansion” and “France” but in this case I will admit the decor could use some re-working. Can’t fault the source, architecture Lionel Coutier as he was responsible for the renovation of this 350 m2 beauty. I do think some of the colours are alot of fun and a great way to maintain a casual vibe.  

Drama, drama, drama. It’s glam, it’s lush, it’s sophisticated yet theatrical. It’s “Trad with a Twist”, a dark boudoir with a provocative edge by Jessie D. Miller Design.
