This historic Spanish Colonial Revival home in Beverly Hills is a beauty, and landscape designer Scott Shrader created an exquisite outdoor space where the goal was keeping a sense of history whilst bringing it into the future. 17th century pilasters frame the driveway entry, custom iron gates, a 17th century stone water feature centered at the front door created a sort of courtyard. And he designated the pool as the hero with the addition of solid marble coping and a new spa that is glassed in on one side. Yessssss!!!! Photos: Lisa Romerein.

In a small part of the Empordà paradise is Mas Pla de Calabuig, a place of 5 hectares of peace, of exquisite decoration full of details and with a unique Mediterranean garden. Three houses and a studio, a total of 700m2 and with a particular style each but with the harmony of the whole. Let yourself be seduced by every corner you find. A unique Mediterranean vegetable space, with a central garden with a saltwater pool and a pergola covered in natural shade. Enjoy the garden with seasonal organic products.

This Arts and Crafts, English inspired cottage located on Brays Island, South Carolina, is a ‘pastoral blend of Anglo and Low Country traditions’ and it is gorgeous inside and out. I loooove the neutral grey tones with dark stone and exposed rustic beams. Designed by Beth Webb; architect: Peter Block; photos: Emily Followill

Originally built as a Tailors called Smith and Hobbs which employed several seamstresses working on the old Singer sewing machines and producing fine quality suits and tweed mostly for the hunting and racing set. A Grade-II listed building, the property was completely restored to its current shape in 2103 by uber-cool Gloucestershire-based salvage and vintage firm Original House. In keeping with the regulations, the exterior had to be kept as close to its original appearance as possible, so a specialist was brought in to strip off the old cladding and replace it. With its new, immaculate coat of corrugated iron, the building has clear visual links to its manufacturing past. The newly-created space, intended to be used both for entertaining and as a guest house, was designed to feel wonderfully cool and contemporary, forming a real contrast between the outside and inside. Feeling far from traditional or fusty, The Old Tailors mixes vintage industrial furniture and lighting with contemporary design and colours, creating a unique salvaged interior topped with freshness and individuality and all the charm and character that history can provide.

Such pretty, happy candy-inspired colours in this 3 bedroom apartment in Hampstead. A child’s dream. And frankly some adults too. Could you live with these colours, particularly all that pink? Maybe not my first choice but I’d find a way to rock it 😉 Available as a location home via Shoot Factory.
