Singer-songwriter Lauv entrusted Studio Keeta, led by Kristina Khersonsky, with renovating his home to suit his creative lifestyle and love of art. The brief sought a relaxed space merging indoors with nature, enriched by vibrant colours and textures. The uniquely laid-out home with separate spaces connected externally allowed for individualized designs. Architectural highlights include an unconventional stairwell and panoramic views framed by glass walls.

Contemporary architecture blends with mid-century aesthetics in the Hollywood Hills home of Osklo co-founders Arya and Michael Martin. Japanese aesthetics inform the design with a materials palette of herringbone oak floors, creamy limestone and knotty wood panelling, emulating the Japanese Hinoki wood’s look on the exterior. A perfect blend of Eastern design and Western ambience.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Twenty Essex barrister chambers by Pernille Lind Studio.

The client already owned an impressive collection of art and vintage furniture when Alana Marie Interiors started this project in Bel Air. “My role was to create and curate moments throughout the home that allowed these pieces a moment in the spotlight.” The result is a marvellous marriage of retro and bespoke, the 70s and now.

The renovation of a Victorian weatherboard house with a vast new extension by Sydney-based YSG took into consideration the diverse tastes of the owners. One is Danish with an appreciation for clean finishes and pale timber. The other is Egyptian-Australian, passionate about pattern, tactility and colour. Vivid gem-toned panels encircle an apricot front door, setting the tone for a vibrant interior. A dark peach hallway, accented with matching tiles and a timber-framed sliding door, leads to a luminous living area. The house’s transformation includes coloured glass windows, hammam-inspired bathrooms, and pixelated porcelain tiles that blur the line between Persian rugs and modern design, creating a unique blend of cultural influences.
