C & J Katz Studio designed this lakeside New Hampshire home for longtime clients, blending memories of a beloved family cottage and their former Boston townhouse. Built on a steep hillside, the residence steps down in levels, each offering expansive lake views. A winding oak staircase recalls the townhouse, while stone floors, a generous fireplace, and ample storage nod to the cottage. Rich in colour and texture, the interiors balance joyful details with a deep connection to site and family history.

This 1930s apartment in west London was renovated and given a whole new stylish life thanks to designer Anna Møller. A foyer with the prettiest marble mosaic floor, an elegant and classic marble fireplace in the living room with mirror added to the alcoves, rich-toned wood cabinets in the kitchen, a wine-red drenched sitting room (this colour is FABULOUS), a sophisticated bedroom with dressing room and ensuite and an adorable kid’s room rounds out this gorgeous family home, and lots of moldings added to the walls (always a hit with me).

Interior designer Emma Shone-Sanders of east London-based studio Design & That created an earthy neutral, contemporary vibe in this glorious four-storey, five-bedroom sympathetically restored Victorian home for a family. The unfussy and sophisticated approach suits the home so well, and gives it an air of elegance but the muted colour palette adds a coziness at the same time. Photos: Ellen Christina Hancock.

Set within a Victorian terrace in North London this family home was reimagined by Laura Stephens with colour, warmth and character at its core. With paint colours already chosen by the client, Stephens introduced bold fabrics, vintage finds and bespoke furniture. Playful pattern mixing, a hallmark of her studio, added energy, from a patterned runner against mosaic tiles to layered rugs and artwork. The result is a colourful, cosy home rich with individuality and charm.

Overlooking Sydney’s Manly Harbour, Delwood House has been reimagined as a calm and enduring retreat. Larissa Leigh Interiors shaped the interiors with a gentle hand, layering light, colour and materiality with restraint. Original elements, including arched thresholds, timber detailing and stained glass, provided architectural rhythm, while curated furnishings introduced presence and ease. The design avoids excess, offering instead a quiet, timeless interior defined by softness, resonance and lasting comfort.
