What a wonderful kitchen this is!!! So bright with all the white, then add in that whole back section clad in wood and it takes this space to a whole other level of awesome. The warmth the wood adds really makes it feel cozy and lived in. The perfect family kitchen. Designed by April Tomlin Interiors. Photos: Paige Rumore.

An enchanting land overlooking an infinite green of citrus, aromatic flora and island palms, an illustrious castle from the 16th century, and a Baronessa with a vision of an elegant countryside venue for weddings and special events. This is Castello Xirumi Serravalle, a magnificent Sicilian treasure belonging to the noble Grimaldi di Serravalle family for centuries. The historical castle has been transformed into a private estate where every room has become a living space with antique millstones, warehouses, olive oil presses, wine cellars, and more. Gracious gathering and dining spaces provide numerous options for entertainment. The open plan on the ground floor of the castle offers elegantly appointed rooms, each one overflowing into the next, and enabling large numbers of guests to circulate the property.
This castello is so incredibly picturesque and its restoration and design by Studio Andrea Perra is magical. That photo with the horse I might never forget. Photos: Mattia Aquila

If you have fallen in love with the style of windows accenting the look of this room, you can employ a double glazing specialist to translate this aesthetic into your own home’s windows.

This family home in Nashville was designed by April Tomlin and exudes warmth and character and cozy cottage vibes from every corner. I am completely smitten with the European-style kitchen AND the working pantry AND the entertaining kitchen off the pool area. So much kitchen-y goodness to fall head over heels for!

This eclectic Georgian townhouse belongs to Designer Alice Crawley, and is a showcase of her confidence in colour and style. Her trademark take on East-meets-West features jewel tones and chinoiserie prints, sprinkled with bamboo furniture and custom upholstery. Almost everything you see has been designed and made by Alice and her team (down to the paint colors) making this a truly unique and original home.
Many bold choices of colours and patterns are found throughout Alice’s home, and the end result is a real wow factor mixed with unmatched levels of comfort and is soooo inviting.

The Victorian home in Larchmont, New York is just beaming with personality! Sooooo much colour and pattern and an energy that is truly unmatched. Also, it basically has 3 kitchens so I am head over heels in love with this home. Designed by Robin Henry Studio, photos by Eric Piasecki.
