It’s a chilly day in my part of the world. Winter sunlight fights winter winds and the only thing that is warm is the end of my red nose from all the rubbing with a tissue. A bad case of flu needs rest and fluids and cheering up. What does this have to do with the über talented London based photographer Matt Clayton? Nothing much except that his wonderful portfolio is just the tonic I need to make it through the rest of today. Thank you Matt. Now if you’ll excuse me I need to go to bed.

Your portfolio is brilliant! The colour, it’s graphic quality, the sense of fun, the punch of personality these photos pack. You’ve put a smile on my face and a couple of decorating ideas into my files. Fabulous photography by Kat Teutsch.

A simple yet stylish renovation of the old custom officer’s house in Hammerhavn, Denmark by Algreen Arkiteckter. Simple beauty to drink in the stunning beauty of the restless Baltic Sea and the old harbor.

By Brazilian designer Fabio Morozini. Hot!

I love a warehouse refurb and today I have two. One a condo with history and loads of style. The other a commercial space with history and loads of style. But they have more than that in common. They are both designs by Jessica Helgerson. I can put my hand on my heart and say there is not a thing I would change. Lofty praise indeed. Oooooh did I just say that!

P.S. Photography by Lincoln Barbour.
