Through this project, THDP’s desire is to create the perfect haven for the curious travelers that want to dive deep into the secrets of one of the most fascinating cities in the world. By restoring these apartments, THDP have created a luxury space to live when visiting Rome; a serene yet enchanting space to unwind after long days of exploring. The three places of intervention are distributed in 3 areas that differ from each other for history and day/night life. The first one (third below), Trastevere is a Young Rome, famous for its nightlife, especially outdoors. The alleys, the fountains, and the clothes hanging outside frame a fresh, sparkling and vital life, and here magic is born. The second one is the monumental Ancient Rome, situated really close to the Colosseum and watershed between 3 of the seven hills, Esquilino, Colle Oppio and Celio. The third one (first below) is Noble Rome, the Rome of palaces, antique dealers and art galleries. An elegant Rome that, when viewed from the windows and terraces, opens up the perspectives to an exclusive and opulent dimension.
If I had a month to be able to travel, and the destination be Rome, how I would loooooove to stay in one of these 27 luxury short term rental apartments. They are the perfect blend of minimal furnishings, doses of colour and modern vibes to make you feel like the coolest person chillin’ in Italy.

Château de Vézins du Lévézou was built in 1120 and has 24 bedrooms and bathrooms, a large and small gallery, summer gallery, library, small and large drawing room, dining room, smoking room, large kitchen, kitchen annexe, pastry shop, large wine cellar, storerooms and cellars, and an attic. It is made up of 3 styles: defensive horseshoe architecture, Italian Renaissance and neo-Gothic. It needs a significant amount of work….where do I sign?!?! For sale via Poncet & Poncet for €750,000

This 18th Georgian home in the Cotswolds has a lot of “me” in it. It can’t decide if it wants to be muted or colourful, traditional or modern. So the result is an eclectic blend of all kinds of good things in one home, and it is cheerful and inviting. And now I want to hunt down an antique Bessarabian rug. Designed by Morrisstudio.

The original Greek Revival house was built in 1833 and the modernist addition was built in 1936 to accommodate a private art collection. Our clients, art professionals themselves, purchased the house after relocating to Connecticut in 2016. This 5,600-square-foot renovation specifically focused on upgrading the kitchen, bathrooms, and mechanical systems. The design elements in this historic home complement the passions of its owners, providing an eclectic backdrop to display their much-cherished art collection. Taking a regional approach, we sourced furnishings from Western Connecticut and the Hudson Valley, which were mingled with the family’s heirlooms.
What a beautiful home with such history! It’s almost 200 years old but with the sensitive modernization of it along with the eclectic blend of furnishings and art, it works so well in present day. Designed by Hendricks Churchill. Photos: Chris Mottalini.

The Becker Barn is an ongoing project on the Toandos Penninsula in the Hood Canal (Washington). The property was lost by the family in a drunken Poker game by Saul’s Grandfather “Babe” in the 70’s (Saul Becker of Mutuus). The opportunity presented itself in 2020 to purchase the property which was adjacent to the tiny cabin that Saul spent his childhood in. Mutuus partners Saul and Kristen spend most weekends with their children there slowly remodeling, dreaming, and testing their design ideas. They see it as an opportunity to prototype Mutuus Made lighting, try out ideas, dabble in landscape design, harvest oysters, spend time with their family, and entertain friends. The gambrel roofed structure has a commanding presence in the landscape that Saul has known since birth. The Becker’s are a restless bunch and this project keeps them in their happy place, constantly dreaming.
Give me all the rustic, barn-like cabins in the woods. The perfect weekend getaway to escape to.
