Muted, muddy tones (such as Farrow & Ball’s Mouse’s Back, the colour of my bedroom that I am obsessed with) and a carefully curated mix of scultutal furniture and accessories come together to create a serene yet stylish dwelling in a Kensington flat of designer Rui Ribeiro.

This Fort Greene townhouse designed by Tamara Eaton is full of fresh and fun vibes from the bottom floor right to the top. Family friendly with some pattern and colour added throughout brings this home to life.

AZULIK Residence was developed with no blueprints or previous drawings of any kind. This freedom reveals its originality and the essence of its most significant challenge: to honor those who came before –the flora, the fauna, and the soil. Its location, completely immersed in the jungle, required finding creative ways to work with concrete and manual labor to avoid destructive heavy machinery. Furthermore, we developed an unconventional structure that is not supported by columns or beams but is rather woven like a basket. Thus, the building was planned as a fabric, where interweaving elements are integrated to make up the entire edifice. This is one of the most unique and magical places I have ever seen! Located in the gorgeous Mexican town of Tulum and designed by Roth Architecture.

Hive LA Home is a Los Angeles based interior design company inspired by travel, nature, comfort, and functionality. Devon McKeon and Jess Fleming create modernized, usable, stylish and at times dramatic spaces. I am obsessed with that monochromatic, jewel-toned dining room. Delish! (Photos: Amy Bartlam)

This 16th century country house in West Sussex is a wonderful example of going neutral and keeping things light and warm in a home that was probably very dark. All of the exposed beams and brick are gorgeous and add so much texture and a sense of pride of the home’s history. Designed by Rui Ribeiro.
