Delicious colours in a Haussmannian apartment

Posted on Tue, 3 Dec 2024 by KiM

This 60 sqm Haussmannian apartment in the 18th arrondissement of Montmartre is an absolute delight. The main living space is neutral with a touch of elegance (and some smokey mirrors add to the faux grandeur), and then the bedroom area is awash in enveloping deep shades of burgundy/mauve/dusty pink. Perfection. Designed by Lauranne Elise Schmitt. Photos: Alice Mesguich.

A captivating mix of historic charm and contemporary family living. The owners approached us after buying the property as their forever family home. We worked closely with Ailtire Architects and Wraxall, a Bath based building firm renown for their work on historic houses; undoing modern insertions and restoring original features more in keeping with the heritage of the 1840’s Grade II listed former Vicarage. We didn’t want it to feel overly done, nor impose a have stamp, rather gently re-work spaces with contemporary family life in mind, whilst respecting the original fabric of the building.
This home is oozing charm from every corner. I absolutely love this and as a forever home, I can imagine forever loving living here and never ever wanting to leave. Designed by Anna Haines. Photos: Paul Whitbread. (Check out more photos here)

A San Francisco Edwardian

There is a elegance and old world sophistication to this San Francisco Edwardian home designed (again) by Alecia Stevens. She frankly had me at Edwardian. A timeless stunner. Photos: Ken Gutmaker.

A vibrant revival in Brussels

Posted on Thu, 28 Nov 2024 by midcenturyjo

I’m sharing another home by Isabel Gómez Studio but this time it’s a light-filled and colourful confection, a stunning marriage of old and new. This project involved completely renovating a traditional Brussels townhouse. Reflecting the studio’s Emotional Luxury® philosophy, the design once again emphasizes the emotional connections between the design and the client. The designers have crafted bold, eclectic and sophisticated interiors with their signature custom joinery and bespoke furnishings all the while respecting the heritage of the building. A luxurious yet livable home that merges timeless artistry with personal comfort.

Cottagewood Gables

WOW this home is a beauty!!! A new build with traditional details that make it appear over a century old, and the interior gives Tuscan farmhouse vibes. Classic in every sense of the world, and once this home has been there a century it will be just as warm and inviting.
