Located on the border between Berlin Mitte and Kreuzberg, the apartment overlooks the historic courtyards of Zander&Palm with their soulful industrial brickwork. Bought as a dark and dusty attic within two years the space was transformed into a cosy and light-filled family dwelling with impressive ceiling heights. A warm palette thanks to the presence of various types of wood (oak, teak, palisander, etc.) makes bright hues and textures pop through experimental treatment of timber and material mixes as well as curated art pieces. With two small kids and regular dinner parties, the couple needed the kitchen to be both practical and joyful. Lacquered in solid colours, the joinery is also oak timber – similarly to the cabinetry made for the bathrooms and the bedroom. After 2,5 years of developing, the interiors feel lived in and very liveable – which is what Studio Bosko aims for with every design project they take on.
Love the playfulness and warmth imbued into this space. A wonderful and stylish place to raise a family. Photos: ONI Studio.

Designer Palmer Weiss and architect Charlie Barnett joined forces to replace an abandoned barn with a vacation home/compound that is part English country, part Scandinavian chic, and part American hunting lodge. A winning combination that is both warmth, as well as bright and airy with tons of personality. Photos: Francesco Lagnese.

Banda have reimagined this five-storey Victorian townhouse in London’s Kensington Village seamlessly blending a major art collection with a warm, inviting interior. Contemporary design is balanced with historic character through the use of natural stone, timber and rich textiles. A garden-level kitchen opens onto a lush outdoor space, while bespoke and vintage furnishings reflect Banda’s refined, quietly luxurious aesthetic resulting in a sophisticated yet comfortable family home.

Just when I think homes that are the traditional side are more up my alley, I come across something cool and modernist like this Lake Claire, Atlanta home and I start to doubt my choices. I imagine buying a 1980s structure can be daunting and possibly limiting in design styles to ensure it doesn’t look out of place, but designer Krista Little Sharif of Hayes Little Studio created a super rad, whimsical and retro home here.

Ashby Collective brought new life to a 1940s home in Austin’s Old Enfield neighbourhood with a respectful, detail-driven approach. Original trim and colorful encaustic tiles were preserved or re-created maintaining the home’s charm. A state-of-the-art kitchen and hidden pantry were seamlessly integrated. The result is a subtly modernized residence where old Austin character remains intact, complemented by playful vintage decor and a Gen X–focused art collection curated by the home’s creative owners.
