Surrounded by the high mountains and alpine valleys of the Le Mas commune of Côte d’Azur in South-eastern France, is this beautiful home designed by Nicky Haslam. Magically endearing as soon as you walk through the front door. His style is imbued thoughout, each space unique and a statement.

Mid-century colour

“Ledgewood, a compact California modernist home nestled in the Hollywood Hills, was designed in 1961 by Robert Kennard, a pioneering Black architect who fought to open the profession to minorities and women. As with any renovation of a historic property, our challenge was to preserve the form and spirit of the original structure while gently ushering it into the 21st century. We believe the most meaningful way to respect great architecture is to demonstrate its adaptability to the rhythms and rituals of contemporary life.”

Breathing new life into this mid-century gem Studio Shamshiri used colour and natural materials to increase the connection between inside and out. Think verdant greens and earthy browns while leather, wood and handmade tiles add texture and interest.

Luxe family living in Sydney’s Hunters Hill by POCO Designs. Beautifully balanced and bespoke, light filled and spacious. Stylish, sophisticated with a neutral colour palette punctuated with golden browns and earthy greens.

Absolutely loving the European modern vibes in this Nebraska lake house designed by Light and Dwell. The exterior is has many dark elements which adds so much character, and when you walk in it’s very white and bright, but turn the corner into the kitchen and WHAM, it’s a mostly black kitchen that is so fabulously dramatic. I am OBSESSED. I cannot stand white kitchens so this is a dream. Other mostly black spaces tie all the black together and keep that flow. LOVE. Photography: Amy Bartlam
