Studio Johnston Head of Interiors and Project Director, Stefania Reynolds, ingeniously revamped this city-fringe apartment using a Mediterranean color scheme and clever spatial changes. Removing a kitchen column expanded the area and created a seamless overlapping layout. Two key adjustments maximized functionality: closing one end of the galley kitchen to create a separate home office and adding a storage unit with sliding doors. The dining area features custom-designed furniture and softening geometric lines with curved joinery and plush seating, all adorned in rich, earthy tones.

It is very difficult to find castles that I can share on Sundays that are decorated in a way I would consider “blog-worthy”. This 8 bedroom, 6063 ft² castle is blog-worthy but not in the positive sense. The bones are fabulous but the decor is so horrible that I don’t think there is a single paint colour, piece of furniture, light fixture etc I can get behind. And it begins as soon as you drive up with that hideous blue. I started reading the description and could not stop laughing…..
Ideally nestled between Riscle and Marciac, in a small hamlet of several delightful residences, discover this sumptuous Art Deco château, accompanied by its guest house and vast outbuildings. Entirely renovated by a famous Madiran wine producer, it is the epitome of excellence: every wall is a hand-painted work of art, the floor tiles are cut on site, and the bathroom tiles are made-to-measure creations… Yet this renovation in no way detracts from the modern character and state-of-the-art equipment of the house… Listing here.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Indie Spa by Cera Stribley.

The Treehouse is filled with character and feels so welcoming. It is a bit coastal, and bit Scandi, a bit cottagecore, a bit granny chic, with a big dose of vintage (especially the bedrooms – love them!). I adore this home designed by Portland, Maine-based Heidi Lachapelle Interiors.

Situated at the foot of a towering 14,000-foot mountain peak and overlooking ancient red rock formations, this modern yet warm home crests a forested ridge. Studio Plow’s maiden, ground-up design embraces the surrounding coniferous forest of Colorado’s Front Range while offering a cozy and inviting refuge for the parents of Plow’s Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Brit Epperson. Created to emulate the intimacy of camping while maximizing the area’s grandiose mountain views, the home’s design is inspired by household rituals and a connection to nature. Each detail of this special home was lovingly crafted in collaboration with kin. With many of the custom furniture pieces sourced from Epperson’s brother, furniture designer, and builder Barrett Karber, the integration of various family skills and heirlooms into the design creates a truly bespoke, forever home for the architect and interior designer’s parents.
Most designer’s would have gone cabin-chic with this home given the rugged terrain and surroundings but the interior is sophisticated, contemporary and really warm. A bit minimal was a great approach so as to not distract from the incredible views. General Contractor: High Country Homes; Custom Furniture: Grain Construction; Photography: Nicole Franzen
