Designed by Workshop/APD, this pavilion-style Nantucket retreat blends traditional cedar-shingle architecture with a distinctly modern perspective. Eight gabled volumes are linked by walkways that create fluid connections between indoor and outdoor spaces. The interiors are minimalist yet inviting featuring a light-filled rooms, tonal furnishings and bold contemporary art. Meticulously crafted and intentionally scaled, the home offers a sophisticated yet relaxed approach to coastal living reflecting Workshop/APD’s thoughtful and highly detailed design ethos.

Designer Tim Pfeiffer of Hoedemaker Pfeiffer has crafted his own Seattle condo into a deeply personal reflection of layered design and lived experience. This restored 1920s residence balances historical character with modern utility, creating a warm and masculine retreat. Rich textures—bronze, leather, oak, stone, linen, and wool—anchor the interiors, while an eclectic, open layout encourages ease and conversation. Each room showcases Pfeiffer’s instinct for contrast and craftsmanship, from handwoven wall coverings to sculptural furniture. The result is a soulful, evolving sanctuary where function and beauty are seamlessly intertwined.

Albion Nord believes the most beautiful spaces are those with soul, more than just balance, proportion or historical context. Their design for Lords View One reflects this philosophy. With serene interiors crafted from marble, timber and bronze, each residence offers calm and character. Sliding, full-height doors frame sweeping views while ensuring privacy. Warm timber paneling replaces conventional white walls, unifying each space and creating a calm, textural environment of quiet sophistication and enduring quality.

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 and there’s nowhere near as stylish as a designer’s own offices. The Studio by GACHOT.

Set in Austin, this home by Molly Kidd Studio has a contemporary European vibe. Designed as a sanctuary from busy lives, it blends soft neutrals, layered textures and natural materials for a calm, timeless feel. Venetian plaster walls and bold elements like Arabescato marble and vintage lighting add depth and personality. With over half of the furnishings being vintage ( sourced locally and abroad) the home feels effortlessly collected, warm and quietly dramatic.
