We have been featuring the work of renowned photographer Graham Atkins-Hughes for many years and I was delighted to hear from him the other day. He wanted to share the home he recently purchased and renovated (it was in quite a state when he bought it, and there are before photos at the end of this post). It is a triplex apartment in Hackney, East London that is available for photo shoots and features some retro vintage furnishings that has always been his signature style. Graham’s new home is fabulous with a kitchen that is now modern and filled with light from 2 large windows, a luxurious master bedroom with en-suite, a gorgeous modern bathroom tiled with large format tiles resembling polished concrete with corner bath (looove!!!!) and a lofty bedroom that also has great windows.

He’s done such an incredible job with this home, getting rid of the bland and ugly and creating a cool, vintage-vibing place. I had to share some of the before photos given the condition it was in which shows how much of a project this was. Great job Graham!!!

A deliciously modern take on an Art Déco apartment by Paris-based Laura Gonzalez. Form, pattern, and colour all modern but all perfectly referencing the age of symmetry, bold outlines, geometric forms, new materials and the repetition of elements. Sophisticated and elegant. Tiger bedroom anyone?

A warm wind stirs, the cicadas sing, the sun moves lazily across the rooms. Shadow and light, natural materials and a sense of a long, languid presence. We’re in Sydney but it’s the Mediterranean we dreaming of. A casual unaffected elegance. Wilkinson Villa by Handelsmann & Khaw.

Nina Farmer‘s design philosophy is rooted in a classical sensibility with a mixture of furniture and accessories from different periods. It says so on her website. This Westport house mixes that classical sensibility with mid-century chops and just a touch of rock star glam. The result is unexpected, elegant, inviting and timeless.

From light-filled and open to moody and contained, from clean-lined to layered with texture and pattern, from contemporary to new Mediterranean this Rancho Santa Fe, California home is all about restrained luxury and casual sophistication.
