Design firm Pierce & Ward will forever be a favourite of mine, that I find so incredibly inspirational. Their love of all things vintage and antique, their creativity and uniqueness, and the coziness and lived-in feel of their projects always capture my heart. This 1900s cottage in Los Angeles was filled with the prettiest wallpapers, lots of patterned textiles and of course tons of antiques, giving it a bit of Scottish pub vibes (the homeowner is Scottish). How lovely!! Photos: Justin Chung.
















Eat.bathe.live transformed this North Carlton, Melbourne terrace house by blending eclectic contemporary styling with traditional elements. Bold patterns, rich colors and varied textures accentuate its unique features. An exposed brick wall anchors the home’s history, complemented by earthy tones, fluted benchtops and distressed leather furnishings. Prioritizing functional living, the design highlights intricate tilework and modernist influences, creating a warm, character-filled family home.

Claire Hung Design, a Brooklyn-based creative studio, specializes in contemporary and transitional interiors, blending understated luxury with European and Scandinavian influences. Each project reflects timeless sophistication, respecting the space’s architectural history while incorporating Scandinavian minimalism, Nordic functionality and Japanese-inspired simplicity. Their Cobble Hill brownstone project designed in collaboration with Studio Vural, transformed a compartmentalized historic home into a light-filled sanctuary. Japanese woodwork, a multi-level skylight and accordion doors revitalised the space for a family of five.

This home in Palm Springs is a midcentury DREAM! House of Tomorrow was the home Elvis and Priscilla were to be married in but instead became their honeymoon hideaway. New owners purchased it in 2021 and with the help of designer Michelle Boudreau they sensitively reinvigorated the property, leaving the exterior seemingly untouched and gently modernized the interior. I am obsessed with that living room (rock wall, custom 14′ curved sofa, floating fireplace) and kitchen (verde allegre quartzite countertops, circular cooktop with custom exhaust hanging in the middle)!

This Neo-Tudor townhouse in Brooklyn could not be more charming from the outside, but it unfortunately had lost all character and original details on the interior. With the help and expertise of design firm Jesse Parris-Lamb, it is now the perfect refuge for a young family and despite being only 18′ wide, is fully functional and now has lots of great features, like the dining nook with banquette and that long book shelf/bench setup under the windows. Also dying over that massive U shaped George Smith sectional sofa in the den. Photos: Nicole Franzen
