I love this home! Eclectic with a bit of a traditional vibe mixed with cottage casual chicness. Such pretty and soothing colours. Designed by Meredith Kleinman.

If you’ve got to go into the office on a Sunday, I hope it’s as cool as this space designed by San Francisco based IDF Studio. IDF Studio was hired by a biotechnology-focused investment firm to convert a historical residence into a modern office space. The original exposed brick walls and wide plank wood floors were maintained, while a reception area was added, and the bedrooms were converted into a reading room and gym. The updated floor plan and redesign brought this 1910 SoMa loft forward nearly 100 years, inspiring innovation and vision even further into the future.

This is a captivating example of how to warm up a concrete shell and how to create cozy zones from a very open concept layout. This penthouse renovation extends across the four top floors of this Maastricht residential tower “Polvertoren’. The tower originally built in the 60s as accomodation for hospital staff has been completely renovated inside and out. A completed reworking of the floor plan on each level meant that each of the spaces connect in a way suited to the lifestyle of the owners. A brief from the clients referencing the tv show Mad Men, designer Jean Prouve and hotels across the world as sources of inspiration set the tone and style of this detailed renovation. Original features such as the formed concrete walls have been restored and left exposed to sit harmoniously against a mix quality new and natural materials. Designed by Nicemakers.

Sharing another layered and dynamic project by Marie-Caroline Willms, but this time more modern and urban. This is a renovated flat in the Barrio de Las Letras ‘hood of Madrid and has some gorgeous original details that have been restored/maintained like the exposed brick walls, support beams and tile floors. Marie-Caroline added in her unique and quirky touches with a mix of antiques and more modern furnishings. Nothing “trendy” about this space and I love it!!

This Haussmanian-style apartment in Saint-Germain-des-Prés is a literal work of art. Stunning architectural details set the stage – the moldings, large windows and chevron hardwood flooring. The walls painted in subdued earth tones are quite intriguing as typically spaces showcasing art are painted white. And as for the art, it’s from a broad range of eras which is very unexpected. Wonderful! Designed by Rodolphe Parente.
