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. Bennett & Barkell by CASWELL.

What a joy it must be for interior designer Stephanie Barba Mendoza to come home to this after a long day at work. Her northwest London home is filled with the most beautiful colours and patterns, and I had to start with the kitchen/dining space because WOW this combination of a leafy wallpaper (Marly by Colony) and peachy/pink paint colour (Sweet Briar by Morris & Co) and those gorgeous green tiles and marble counter…. what a treat! The orange living room walls (Dutch Orange by Edward Bulmer) carries the warmth through to the other side of the house. I am completely smitten with this. Photos: Kensington Leverne.

A quintessential California Spanish home renovated for a young family and their dog, Lady. When the clients purchased the house much of its character had been stripped. Through rehabilitation and restoration, the residence now celebrates the historical qualities of Spanish Colonial architecture while introducing a quiet sense of modernity. Relaxed and warm, the furnishings feel natural within the environment and reflect the vibrance of their young family. 
I love the cream coloured walls juxtaposed with the dark furnishings, the dining room floor is SO GOOD and all that wood in the kitchen makes it so cozy! Designed by Meghan Eisenberg. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

“This Parisian pied-à-terre combines Haussmannian elegance with a modern décor. The classic volumes, mouldings, and fireplace add a timeless touch, while the marble floor patterns and soft hues create a subtle contrast, enhancing the serene atmosphere of the space.”

The Washington, Connecticut Farmhouse, built in 1783, underwent a meticulous restoration to preserve its historic character. Carefully dismantled and reassembled, the structure was updated with energy-efficient systems while maintaining original features like three staircases and reclaimed oak floors. A modest kitchen addition complemented the historic design, while the restored brick chimney and period details created a warm, layered interior blending antiques with vintage and contemporary furnishings.
