This retrofit of a family apartment in the  Jardim Botânico area of Rio de Janeiro is all about the luxury of staying home. Think comfort, softness, the perfect place to bring together family and friends in the oasis of the home.  Serene and stylish. Residência DF by BC Arquitetos

In case you haven’t realised I’m enamoured by the work of Madrid-based design studio Casa Josephine. Contained within the walls of an 18th century convent Casa Alamillo is a quirky yet oh so stylish mix of classicism and 80s Italian design. Traditional with a twist … it’s my favourite design style.

This Edinburgh flat with its elegant Georgian lines is no shrinking violet. What could have been restrained and dare I say plain is instead alive with colour and pattern. Grey walls anchor the scheme allowing the designer Jessica Buckley to create a space that reflects the owners personality and style. The repeated use of pink and yellow must be so uplifting on a dreary Scottish day. Another great example of traditional with a twist.

Sarah Lavoine has been a favourite designer of ours for years. Her signature Parisian style is omnipresent with her bold use of colour and eclectic furniture and lighting. For example, the renovation of this contemporary flat of 280 m2 located in the 16th arrondissement. The interaction between the interior and the exterior is always present, the flat is a succession of rooms which give access to the garden. The work of interior architecture allowed to create the harmony and the fluidity between the different spaces of life. Maison Sarah Lavoine plays with the contrast of materials and colors, the black marble worktop elegantly highlights the caning of storage elements and the lacquered green of the kitchen.

A little bit of glam, bling, and colour for your Thursday afternoon care of China-based designer Baptiste Bohu. Located in one of the most luxurious residential tower of Shanghai, this apartment occupies the entire floor. The owners, a young and well traveled Chinese couple, share their life between Shanghai and Vancouver. They wanted a modern yet comfortable and elegant interior for their Shanghai apartment. Baptiste used premium materials which gave a very chic look and worked with a mix of French style and contemporary furniture.
