With its 6 bedrooms, including a luxurious master suite, this château in Auvergne benefits from a prime location with sweeping views over the lush surroundings. At the entrance of the estate, a charming caretaker’s house complements the property, along with over 500 m² of barns and outbuildings, some of which still await completion, offering additional development potential. Its ideal location allows easy access to major cities such as Paris, Lyon, or Bordeaux, while offering the tranquility and beauty of the countryside.
This is so pretty I could cry. I love everything about this. For sale via Poncet & Poncet for €1,590,000. 

Located in the Little Burgundy district, at the foot of downtown Montreal, this project responds to the clients’ initial request to expand their home so that their large and vibrant family of four children can enjoy a living space at their scale, while guaranteeing each of them an optimally sized bedroom. The project consists of a renovation and expansion of a building that originally consisted of two small houses with mansard roofs built in the late 19th century.
La Shed can really do no wrong. Each of their projects leaves me wanting a modern take on a historic home, which only happens with their work. Also I would consider this firm one of the best at adapting homes to life with young children. LOVE THIS. Photos: Maxime Brouillet.

The Château des Fleurs, located near the Champs Elysées, is Quintana Partners‘ first project in Paris. It is an elegant boutique hotel with thirty-seven rooms, a bar-restaurant, a gym and a spa. For this project, Quintana Partners has drawn on the rich iconography of a Paris that is as refined as it is playful, as sophisticated as it is cheerful. A “New Art Nouveau”, as they have named it, present from the façade with stained glass windows with plant motifs characteristic of the stylistic movement. The rooms, with sinuous wooden doors reminiscent of Antoni Gaudí, offer a cosy and comfortable atmosphere with rounded lines and elegant details. In addition, nods to Paris, such as the reed carpet, terracotta tiles and window boxes, add to the authentically Parisian experience. 
I adore all the rounded edges and the ball detail. How divine to perch on one of those fringed chairs sipping a cocktail. Photos: Daniel Schaefer

Interior design in Canada is often questionable, in my humble opinion. Every once in a while a designer comes along that seems to truly have skills and is able to create magazine worthy spaces. Toronto based Sam Sacks is one of them. She’s so good I almost had to split this into two posts but managed to edit the photos down to share my favourites. Some photos: Lauren Miller.

In the heart of every space lies its soul, a whisper of history, a resonance of the present, and an echo of what could be. At The Flair Interiors, we embark on a journey that transcends the conventional, embracing the essence of genius loci, celebrating patina, dancing with grandeur, and infusing a decadent soul into every creation.
Rome based designer Teodora Diana Montanaro was raised by a Lebanese-Romanian art historian mother and a Swedish-English antiques art dealer father and grew up around art, antiques, literature and historical spaces. And now lives and works in one of the most beautifully historic cities in the world. It’s no wonder she’s got such a keen eye and a love for all things old and original.
