Sharing another Ibiza home with you that is making me crave a holiday once again. Typical white Ibizan architecture is livened up with some very bold and bright colours in the furnishings and accessories making this a super fun family home. The exterior isn’t too shabby either 🙂 Via Nuevo Estilo.

Clearly Fern Santini enjoys colours, patterns and layers and having fun with her spaces, as is evident in this Boulder, Colorado farmhouse she designed. She also cleverly mixes furniture from different eras to keep things from being too predictable. Lover her creativity. (Architect: Annette Martin, photos: Nick Johnson)

This lakeside home in Austin, Texas is the perfect family home with lots of entertaining spaces, a to-die-for 2 story screened in porch, and lots of colours and textures. Just the right amount of personality and comfort. Designed by Fern Santini (architecture: Paul Lamb + Inge Hendley, photos: Douglas Friedman)

I wanted to share another apartment by Lyon-based designer Claude Cartier and this one is at the opposite end of the spectrum from the last post. This one has a definite masculine vibe with hard edges, dark colours and no pink in sight! Black, green and yellow are the colour pallette and are really beautiful and dramatic together. And this one feels “Parisian”.

If you’re a fan of glamourous and dramatic interiors with a feminine touch I think you’re going to love this renovated apartment by Lyon, France designer Claude Cartier. Pink, grey, black, white and an unexpected touch of blue make for a beautiful colour palette. If I didn’t love Cole & Son’s Fornasetti Nuvolette wallpaper before I’m now DYING to use it on a ceiling. Also, the photo above is a great example of hot to use paint in a simple yet unique way. STUNNING!!!
