Making ceilings a focal point in a small space

Posted on Tue, 21 May 2024 by KiM

I am always blown away at the creativity of Paris designers. This 45m2 apartment in the 11th arrondissement is minimalist but packs a real punch with some accented ceilings – a green/brown in the kitchen/dining area and a wood clad ceiling in some of the bedroom (which is meant to “reinforce the impression of a monastic cell and calls for rest”). Both really add drama and interest without being too bold/in your face and taking it to another level (literally – up above HA). Appartement Nation designed by Heju.

In Crouch End, North London, a young family sought help to enhance their home’s functionality and add colour and warmth. Laura Stephens Interiors redesigned the open-plan ground floor, transforming the middle room with a wood-burning stove, armchairs, a rug, and a warm paint scheme. The adjacent kitchen’s new paint scheme added warmth and character. Large glazed doors in cerulean blue brightened the hallway. Upstairs, the master bedroom featured soft blue and pink tones, luxurious furnishings, and unique repurposed antiques. The family living area and cinema room were made both practical and sophisticated.

Working on a Saturday

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Sheeth Headquarters by Studio Prineas.

Another historic Minneapolis home

Posted on Fri, 17 May 2024 by KiM

Warmth and texture abound in our Lake Harriet Historic home. An earthy palette complements the historic architecture found in the refinished oak flooring and a bright chef’s kitchen.
Another beauty with attention to detail that has me swooning by Yond Interiors. A classic kitchen that would stand the test of time, and its simplicity and functionality are perfection. Also adore the accent colours used throughout – dramatic and enveloping. Builder: Mark Williams Custom Homes; Architect: KA Designs; Photos: Taylor Hall O’Brien.

“A classic California Tudor remodelled for a young family of creatives and their many house guests. When the clients bought the house most of its character had been lost over the years. We worked hard to bring it back to a more authentic version of itself, choosing an aesthetic direction that tastefully represents their bohemian side while keeping it both timeless and relevant. The end result is a house that is warm, inviting and magical. A real embodiment of the client’s personality.”

A fabulous mix of vintage and contemporary, colour and pattern with a great outdoor area perfect for family living. 1928 California Tudor by Meghan Eisenberg.
