A designer’s inviting Oxfordshire home

Posted on Fri, 22 Apr 2022 by KiM

This beautiful and inviting house is located in Oxfordshire and is home to interior designer Taline Findlater of Olivine Design and her family. Some of the home dates back to the 17th century, which means there is some really great character inside and out. Add in some really fun colours and patterns (Taline is a trained fabric expert), and the result is a really fun and eye-catching, modernized home. (Photos: Simon Brown)

An eclectic West London townhouse

Posted on Fri, 22 Apr 2022 by KiM

Several months back an issue of Architectural Digest appeared in my mailbox that had rendered me extra smitten. It was thanks to this wonderfully eclectic West London townhouse designed by Rachel Chudley. Filled with a variety of antique pieces from various eras, tapestries, rugs, suzanis, leopard wallpaper….the home is warm, thoughtful, and fabulously random. (Photos: Simon Upton)
