I had to share another spot-on project (located in Oxfordshire, England) by the incredible talented firm of hám interiors. From a 1950s property with limited architectural character, we undertook this full design, build and interior design project to create a modern country home. Open-plan living spaces with pitched ceilings are given warmth with an eclectic collection of antiques and specially commissioned large-scale artworks, while reclaimed sinks and fireplaces were sourced on buying trips to Belgium. Our signature shiplap boarded ceilings, textural flooring, bold pops of colour and handcrafted furniture give this country home an established elegance.

Some from me. Lucky hanging out in the she-shed with me one day while I was working from home. The ferals completely mauling Felix since they have zero concept of personal space. Another bed shot, this time feral-free (the OG’s). And because Mimin must be near me at all times, this is her snoozing on my desk while I work.

I’m dead. This home is absolutely incredible. Sooooo much space! I can’t even imagine. Set within 27 acres of grounds including two lakes and a wood. The property’s immaculate facade gives an indication of the extensive renovation works which have transformed the house from an almost derelict pile to the exceptional family home it is today. Arranged over three floors, this home is approx 8,000 sq ft in total and boasts six bedrooms all en-suite, a gym, three reception rooms, a large dining room and open plan kitchen and breakfast room. The impressive entrance hall has a large format checkerboard floor made from highly polished stone, and high ceilings with exposed oak beams. Available as a location home via Shoot Factory.

It’s like I say week after week. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it certainly helps if it’s somewhere super stylish. Huckletree co-working space by Sella.

What a week! I need a break. Unfortunately I can’t escape the real world so it will have to be a virtual getaway. Today’s daydream is bought to you by Atelier du Pont whose transformation of this holiday house in Menorca, Spain ticks all my boxes. I can feel the stress melting away already.
