I’ve been following artist & designer Josh Young on Instagram for some time now and realized we haven’t featured him on the blog – until now. Based in Washington, his style is heavily influenced by several years he spent in Milan. It has distinctive European, old world elements mixed with a bit of sophisticated modernity and always very neutral. So very pleasing to the eye.

I am completely smitten with this bold, pattern-happy traditional Spanish finca designed by Matthew Williamson. In 2018 Matthew converted this once derelict house built in 1920 into a luxurious, modern family home with 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, dining and lounge areas. Along with extensive garden and summer room renovations, the home has undergone a radical and stylish transformation.

This modern beach house in East Hampton is tons of fun. Loaded with tropical colours and wallpaper, it is coastal vacationing with a chic, graphic twist. Such uplifting energy in these spaces. Designed by Ghislaine Viñas. (Photos: Jaime Viñas & Mick Hales)

I had to share another urban oasis by Stefano Dorata. All of the details such as the art, lighting and muted colour palette really come together to create a chic, polished aura. It is refined, yet liveable.

An apartment in Rome in the Piazza di Spagna, with an interior that is classic, urban, and sophisticated, a perfect foil to the incredible scenery beyond the windows. With so much history and architecture within view, the black and white colour palette was a brilliant choice to avoid becoming a distraction. Designed by architect and designer Stefano Dorata.
