Overlooking Sydney Harbour, this Balmoral residence was designed by Eaton Molina Architects director Jake Eaton. (The project began during his time at Burley Katon Halliday and was completed at EMA.) The architecture balances light, scale and materiality, shaped through a collaborative design process. Landscape design by Dangar Barin Smith overcomes limited deep soil by using raised planters atop slabs. These create layered, thriving gardens with species chosen for resilience, forming a soft, coastal landscape that embraces the home.

Ashby Collective’s design honors history and architectural context, blending timeless style with meticulous detail. In this 1940s Old Enfield, Austin home, traditional trim was preserved, original encaustic tile floors were restored and vintage charm maintained throughout. Every room retains its unique charm and character, celebrating the home’s heritage. The art-loving homeowners curated a vibrant collection of Gen X artists, adding a playful energy that complements the eclectic mix of vintage furnishings and decor throughout the space.

A discernible love of pattern and maximalism (particularly when it comes to layering artwork on the walls), which imbues such a level of coziness and homeliness.
There’s something about a mostly black and white interior, particularly when done with an old world feel, that makes my heart skip a beat. This Tudor home in Atlanta was revitalized by D Stanley Dixon Architect by keeping the authenticity and channelling Cotswolds vibes, whilst interior designer Amy Morris added shades of ebony and creamy whites, rich dark wood, touches of black and unlacquered brass. It’s bright yet has quite a mood and a sense of drama. I could not love this more. Photos: Simon Upton.
This newly built spacious home is full of character and child-friendliness for a family with four children. It’s unassuming on the outside but has everything you could want – pantry/second kitchen, home theater, secret playroom, wine and bar rooms etc etc. I REALLY love that off the kitchen is a covered area with a BBQ so you could enjoy meals outside even in the rain.
