Blessed with the beautiful bones of a 1940s apartment Parisian-based RMGB have created a magical home in the very northern commune of Lambersart.  A neutral colour palette allows original features like a two-storey stained glass window and its accompanying staircase to shine. The mix of contemporary furniture and pieces from the 60s and 70s is chic in the way that only the French can be truly chic.

Light-filled yet moody the Hamburg home of interior designer, stylist and photographer Peter Fehrentz is a sophisticated oasis in the bustling city. Beautiful high windows and a sense of space, of volume, are the starting point for the masculine yet layered and considered apartment.

Neoclassical in Madrid’s Barrio de las Letras where restraint meets drama. Clever use of white, split levels, mirror and bespoke storage elevate this bijou apartment from tired and pokey to classic with an edge. By Marta Goyanes and Cristina Espejo of Studio Espejo Goyanes

“We were commissioned to design 11 model apartments for a Lower East Side residential building, One Manhattan Square. Each apartment tells the story of the unique characters who might someday inhabit the space. The apartments were transformed from white walled units into richly layered homes that are inviting to a range of potential residents.”

New York designer Anna Karlin transformed once white boxes into richly layered homes. Here are two of the apartments. The first a colourful and richly patterned home full of contrasts and collected objects. The second a welcoming space for friends and family to gather with soft textures and warm hues.

An apartment in Rome in the Piazza di Spagna, with an interior that is classic, urban, and sophisticated, a perfect foil to the incredible scenery beyond the windows. With so much history and architecture within view, the black and white colour palette was a brilliant choice to avoid becoming a distraction. Designed by architect and designer Stefano Dorata.
