“The Hampton project was a total renovation of an existing 1920’s Californian Bungalow in a Heritage Overlay precinct. It included a second storey addition, total internal update of all rooms, inground pool and landscaping and garage.”

And when I say Hampton I mean the suburb of Hampton in Melbourne. The renovation was purposely for resale but that didn’t stop Michelle Hart of Bask Interiors from creating the dream family home with a Hamptons with a modern twist interior.

Amid the hills and forest of Ibiza lies a newly built white-washed villa that exudes comfort and is understatedly luxurious. Designed by South African La Grange Interiors, this modern finca is a magical escape for an urban couple with a neutral palette and an incredibly beautiful exterior. (Photos: Elsa Young)

From me: I managed to get all the cats in a photo without even trying. This is snack time at my house. And semi-feral Frankie loves weekends laying in bed, even if I’m there.
