In El Born, Barcelona, John Brown Projects has reimagined a top-floor apartment with sensitivity to its architectural character and a fresh Mediterranean spirit. Catalan vaulted ceilings remain a striking feature, paired with natural tones and textures that evoke warmth and ease. A bespoke kitchen anchors the interior, while curated ceramics reflect artistry and travel. The result is an inviting retreat that captures the essence of Barcelona living.

A bit more from Buchanan Studio because I am completely obsessed with the yellow and pink tiled bathroom, and their iconic striped “pillow” chairs and sofas.

Monroe House by Parker Studio showcases the firm’s belief that thoughtful design enriches daily life. Known for creating interiors that are elegant, expressive, and sensitive to their surroundings, Parker Studio crafted a cohesive scheme that honoured the home’s Art Deco heritage. Previously fragmented in style, the house was reimagined with a contemporary vibrancy that celebrates its history while feeling distinctly modern, resulting in a harmonious balance of character, refinement, and architectural integrity.

In Biarritz, designer Camille Lavigne has reimagined a 19th-century apartment with sweeping views over the ocean and casino as a refined yet timeless retreat. Light moves effortlessly through spaces that reflect the rhythm of the sea and surrounding rocks without falling into coastal clichés. Soft natural tones, organic textures, and fluid lines shape the atmosphere. With artisans’ craftsmanship, Lavigne introduced thoughtful details and elegant finishes, giving the apartment both sophistication and enduring character.

A lobster/boob bathroom. Eyeball chairs. A “conversation” bespoke sofa. A concierge desk/bar. A uterus bed. A stained glass eye window. A triple height indoor garden. Welcome to the wacky and absolutely beautiful home of artists of Philip and Charlotte Colbert created by Buchanan Studio and Chris Dyson Architects who concocted this masterpiece from five dilapidated brick terrace homes. There is so much space and so many surreal and creative things everywhere you look. Photos: Alicia Waite.
