I am dyinggggg over this 75 m² apartment in an 18th century building near the Palais-Royal gardens in France. Racha Gutierrez and Dahlia Hojeij Deleuze of design studio Ebur were asked to maintain original details and add a discreet dose of modernity. Stone floors, herringbone parquet were restored, doors and windows were stripped, and some antique and modern furnishings and accessories were added to make this apartment spectacular.

The idea was to give new life to an industrial space once occupied by a coffee machine factory. I wanted it to be a modern and welcoming loft, with a shaft in the heart of the house, which acts as a garden and amplifies the brightness, giving a sense of continuity between inside and outside.
This is my dream loft layout – with a central courtyard I would layer with plants. The Milanese House – Via Ventura – a fun and eclectic space designed by Milan-based Nap Atelier that is filled with vintage goodness.

“Our young client was ready to make a home that felt like her own. In order to optimize the condo’s limited space, we reconfigured the layout and changed the function of certain spaces, like converting a hall closet outside of the bathroom into a built-in unit with a vanity, mirror, and storage drawers and cabinets. An open washstand with legs and light stone selections make the bathroom appear bigger, and a recessed floor length medicine cabinet prevents counter clutter. The much-loved galley kitchen, featuring antiqued stone tile and a plaster curve and vent hood, opens onto the moody dining room, the perfect setup for the owner’s many dinner parties.”

This comprehensive renovation and interior design of a vacation rental building located in the old town of Valencia is by Paloma Bau Studio. Reinforcing metal rises up through the 4 floors providing not only structural support but also somewhere for sinks, furniture and accessories to be hung. Each floor is coloured zoned and a curve is used as a repeating motif. It’s an ode to living in a narrow space, exploring solutions for each floor that is only a few meters wide.

Interior designer Marta de La Rica calls it a taste of calm where traditional meets contemporary. This Madrid apartment is an ode to beauty with an emphasis on colour, texture, fabrics and craft. The painted walls and chandelier in the living room bring a sense of whimsy as does the shell-encrusted bathroom vanity. Chic European living but with Spanish roots.
