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. Nothing is more stylish than an interior designer’s own office. GOLDEN Studio Workplace.

Clean, classic, neutral, textured and contrasting. This is such an easy-going, timeless and sellable style that is so fabulous in this Los Angeles home designed by Katie Hodges. I am particularly fond of the ‘California-meets-English-Swedish’ kitchen. Definitively not something trendy that would need re-renovating anytime soon. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

“Nestled in the historic Presidio Height neighborhood of San Francisco, this Colonial Revival home had beautiful bones but needed to be reformatted spacially to gain more kitchen and living space, grow the bottom level, allow more natural light, and update all finishes. Careful attention to millwork details, natural stone, and special wall finishes took precedence on the architectural side. While on the decoration front, we placed emphasis on a mix of classic and modern silhouettes, with heavy use of vintage pieces to add a European sensibility.”

“Perched on a hill this small beach shack,  which has fabulous treetop views over Portsea and Sorrento,  underwent a dramatic transformation. An extensive renovation doubled the space with an additional level built underneath with pool deck area into the steep hill. It was important to keep the original elements of the house, such as the limestone walls and angled exposed beam ceiling. A minimal all white palette with custom furniture and select vintage pieces and objects create a calm and relaxed environment for the many visitors during summer months.”

A serene, summer-ready haven by Melbourne-based interior designer Rebecca Clark.

This historic Chicago house has undergone a transformative renovation guided by interior designer Cari Giannoulias. Preserving its rich history, she expertly blended past and present, enhancing the grand staircase and salvaging original features like panelled doors, fireplace and woodwork. The house, reimagined as a gentleman’s retreat, exudes understated charm. Muted hues and neutral tones dominate, creating a serene ambience where every element harmonises, from skirting boards to furnishings. It’s a marriage of the past and the present. The result is a timeless classic.
