Designer’s own

Littlewood Residence, home to GOLDEN co-founder Alicia and her family, is a masterful blend of design and collaboration. The space is both functional and warm with thoughtful details tailored for a young family. Natural materials add depth, while subtle design creates moments of intrigue. The use of colour and warmth is balanced, never overwhelming and intricate craftsmanship enhances the overall quality, reflecting GOLDEN’s signature timeless style and lasting originality.

The loft-style condominiums at 62 Reade Street combine modern living with the preservation of the building’s architectural heritage (once a clock factory). New York-based ODA designed the interiors with a refined, upscale take on loft-style living, using natural materials and a light, airy palette of off-white and beige. White oak floors, exposed beams, fluted glass steel doors and high-end appliances blend modern luxury with original character, honouring the site’s rich past.

The clients envisioned a home that blended modernist themes with the original Victorian details of their historic San Francisco property. They collaborated with William Duff Architects for a major remodel and enlisted Niche Interiors for interior design, furnishings and decorative lighting. Herringbone wood floors, traditional panelling and trim contrast with a sleek staircase in the foyer. Niche Interiors selected a modern console table and geometric light fixture, adding contemporary elements to complement the architectural details. A black and white colour scheme prevails throughout the home while oak and leather accents bring warmth to the kitchen, living room and bedroom.

Working on a Saturday

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend then it helps if it’s somewhere stylish like Bunsa Studio‘s own office space.

“Founded in 2013 by Jennifer Bunsa, the studio’s objective is to create a unique sense of place that is thoughtful, comfortable and infused with soul. At the heart of the practice is a love of color, pattern, texture and a strong desire to create spaces that feel lived-in and timeless. Bunsa Studio believes that the creation of soulful design comes from attention to detail, the incorporation of natural and hand-made materials and blending the old with the new.”
