Everything is cooler in Paris. The architecture is so exquisite you can put anything in the spaces and they simply sing. In the case of this apartment designed by David Raffoul and Nicolas Moussallem of David/Nicolas they let their imaginations run wild, and incorporated unique modern furnishings for that juxtaposition of eras that I adore.

This vibrant family home in the French countryside, just outside Paris, was completely transformed by Sean Symington over an 18-month renovation. Working closely with a young family who relocated from London, the project reimagined the interiors while respecting the home’s original architecture. Grand proportions and symmetry provided the perfect canvas for layering bold colour, texture, and pattern. An eclectic art collection informed much of the design direction, inspiring a personal, expressive aesthetic. Bespoke joinery, antique finds, and custom upholstery bring warmth and individuality to this richly detailed and welcoming home.

A bachelor’s dual-purpose, industrial solo pad allows for moments of self-discovery and experience — a true blank canvas that, through thoughtful design, exudes personality and embraces curiosity. An enviable art collection — including a two-story custom installation — and street-level event space only add to the adventure.
There’s a sense of drama, coolness, a modern artsy vibe in this West Loop home. I am swooning over the bedroom in that glorious green (Benjamin Moore’s Polished Slate) with the “Moon Gate” transition to the meditation space. Designed by Studio Sven. Photos: Ryan McDonald.

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.
