Our intention was to evoke something very authentic to our empty-nester clients, regardless of what was happening in the design world. Working with the contractors and the architect from the ground up, we ensured that the property carried the simple English cottage-style architecture and lofty, 12-foot ceilings found in historic homes in Utah.
This home designed by W Design Collective is everything I love. Historic in architecture (even if it is a new build), all warm colours and mostly in soothing neutrals, and just all around so classic it will absolutely stand the test of time. Photos: Malissa Mabey.

Bassano is the transformation and combination of two cabins in Red Hill to create a luxurious retreat as a private suite and an artist studio. The exteriors of the cabin meet the natural landscape through a blend of pale brick and timber battens. Inside, the experience contrasts through industrial materialities and bold forms, such as in the steel spine and travertine floor tiles. Traditional ceiling beams pay homage to the region’s farmhouses, and constant views of surrounding farmland maintain a connection to the environment. A central reeded glass wall separates the two zones of the living quarters. One side contains a kitchen, breakfast nook, lounge and fireplace, while the other features the main bedroom, robe, and a centrepiece custom concrete bath dramatically illuminated by a skylight. The result is a richly textured space with a keen sense of individuality, creativity and comfort.
I really love the edgy coolness of this retreat. Not sure which is my favourite element – that statement bath/basin/skylight combo or the dark steel kitchen. Designed by Tom Robertson Architects. Interior design: Simone Haag. Photos: Derek Swalwell.

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. Estudio Quintana by Quintana Partners.

We will occasionally share a home gym on the blog but usually just a photo amongst the house photos. Something utilitarian but never as inspiring as this private gym in Milan. From the wood-lined office and gym space to the stylish bathroom this gym is just a little bit more than rubber mats and sweat. By Studio Natalia Bianchi.

This 1800s Grand Victorian mansion in Mosman, Sydney, once divided into three disordered apartments, has been lovingly restored into a family home while honouring its historic grandeur. Inspired by traditional North American coastal architecture, the design reflects the clients’ admiration for this timeless style. The interiors were revitalized with textural mouldings, wainscoting, and luxurious finishes while preserving original features like leadlight windows and stone fireplaces. A casual side entrance leads to a functional mudroom and laundry, while the reimagined foyer impresses guests. The open-plan ground floor includes a sunlit kitchen with Shaker-style joinery, a spacious dining area, and seamless indoor-outdoor connections for hosting unforgettable gatherings.
