What a gorgeous and unique loft this is! Located in the West Village, this is such a beautiful space with curved ceilings, lovely chevron floors and warm wood cabinetry and then the addition of really special pieces and lots of textures and earthy touches. Eclectic and personal is a winning combination. Designed by Aamir Khandwala. (Photos: Jacob Snavely)

I’d like to share a peek into the Upper East Side home of interior designer Sandra Nunnerley. Located in a turn-of-the-century Carrère and Hastings townhouse, it is so thoughtfully curated, with stunning pieces of graphic art that really create an aura of glamour and drama.

It’s an exercise in volume with the space designed as a single room without the doors or separations. It’s an exercise in public and private, a promised glimpse, a quickly barred shutter. It’s an exercise in the elegant purity of a minimal palette. Most of all it’s an exercise in fabulous French taste. Appartement Rue Etienne Marcel in Paris, France by Atelier du Pont.

“Working with a Grade II listed property like this one on Harley Street pushed us to design within the confines of a 1750s layout and its 19th c. alterations. The end result was a marriage of styles that highlight the property’s historical qualities within a 21st century palette.”

And isn’t a successful marriage what we all desire? The beautiful Harley Street project by Red Deer.

Another designer who can do no wrong and whom I have admired for years is Hubert Zandberg and this is his fabulously curated London apartment. Speckled with afternoon sun welcomed in through oversized, west-facing windows, Hubert Zandberg’s new White City apartment is testimony to his design approach: that a space can be infused with character through seemingly disparate items collected over time and place. The 100 square metre apartment is situated in Television Centre in White City. The new-built provided Hubert with the perfect blank slate against which to display some of his collected pieces, antiques and art in a new, dynamic composition. He furnished the ‘developer’s white box’ using key items from the HZ permanent collection, including vintage Modernist objet and works of art, as well as prototype furniture from the By HZI line, such as a sofa, several cabinets, sideboards, a custom bed and shelving. The end result is a bespoke, greatly personal space that underscores the designer’s belief that smart styling can transform a space with very limited architectural intervention.
