This isn’t your typical Southampton hideaway. It’s an 1892 Tudor that has been fully renovated, but with many of the original features maintained, like the wood beamed ceilings and the leaded glass windows. What I love about this home is that designer Samuel Amoia added an edginess through artwork and random bits of bold colour.

The perfect weekend getaway, linen, cane and soft hues in this renovated Queenslander style house in the Northern NSW hinterland. The modern Australian country vibe is just what I’m craving in these uncertain times. Bangalow house by Lennon Head based Louise Walsh Interior Design.

“The brief for an extension to a 1920’s house backing on to the Hobart rivulet and Fitzroy gardens called for increased visual and physical access to its garden setting. This was in stark contrast to the flood overlay planning requirements for the floor level to be raised above the site it sought to connect with. The resulting addition sets up a series of decks and landings at height intervals not requiring balustrades and gradually spills into the immediate garden drawing in the neighbouring park through large glazing and openings.”

Gemma, founder of Balance Interior Design in South West London, believes that excellent interior design is about finding that sweet spot between what could oppose – aesthetics & function, period & modern, symmetry & offset. My design style leans towards calm interiors with a sense of space and organisation. I focus on light, layering and materiality for a pared back and relaxed style which is at once authentic, warm and inviting. Timeless, comfortable and serene.

I am completely smitten with this stunning Florida home designed by Bohlert Massey. The architectural details are extraordinary, and highlight the global treasures found throughout each room. With an eclectic mix of antique furnishings from different eras and layers of textiles and materials, it’s a feast for the eyes.
