Imagine a Parisian apartment blending old-world charm with chic 60s design and modern comforts, transformed by Ola Jachymiak Studio in Paris’s 9th arrondissement. Preserving features like parquet floors and tall wooden doors, Ola’s team enhanced the space with contemporary elements. Restored floors and doors maintain historical essence, while art adds depth. Retro touches like a black-and-white mosaic and bespoke furniture complete the design.

Amidst the pandemic, a client sought a retreat from her busy life and purchased a 45 sq m studio in NW Portland. Casework transformed the pied-a-terre into her perfect getaway. Imagined as a recharging station, the space features vibrant palettes, pastels, patterns, and animal prints. Key highlights include Kate Blairstone’s Tigress wallpaper in the entry and Heirloom Roses wallpaper creating a semi-custom headboard.

This apartment in Las Vegas goes against everything you think of when you think “modern minimalism”. For starters there is COLOUR. I was fully expecting this to be an all white apartment. Which would have been BLEH. And I get it when you collect art that you need a neutral backdrop to showcase it. But here designer Daniella Villamil used a pale blue – Farrow & Ball’s Borrowed Light. Such a pretty alternative to white! And a green kitchen – YESSSSS!!! (It is Benjamin Moore’s Forest Green). There is also a level of comfort thanks to a big squishy sectional sofa, a shaggy rug, lime washed bedroom walls, wallpaper and patterned curtains. Photo: Amy Bartlam.

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.

Faced with an apartment stripped of its Hausmannian features designers Samantha Hauvette and Lucas Madani of Hauvette & Madani set about to restore the rooms to their former glory … and more. The home on Paris’ Avenue Montaigne contains bespoke and artisan furniture and finishes as well as the collections of the creative owner. My favourite part? The bubblegum pink kitchen.
