Occupying a prominent corner plot in Saratoga Springs, Upstate New York, this handsome Victorian villa operated as a six-bedroom bed and breakfast when our clients took it on. Our brief was to transform a series of bland, lifeless rooms into a holiday home for a young family with a passion for horse racing and entertaining. Guided by the client’s admiration for British contemporary craft and bold, richly layered interiors, we have focussed on creating a series of impactful rooms that delight the eye and encourage conversation and conviviality.
As I admire each of the rooms in this home, it must feel like living in a meadow of wildflowers. This is soooooo pretty! Designed by Sarah Brown.

“Constructed in limestone rubble of a simple two-cell layout, the structure was carefully reworked by the owners Charlotte Boyens and Adam Scott, founders of the architecture practice, FreeState. With staggering sensitivity to the style and use of historic features, the house maintains references to original orientations around the font, altar, and windows.”

Another church conversion, another special home. This Grade II-listed church (first mentioned in 1291) on the mid Pembrokeshire coastline has been carefully converted into a sympathetic seaside house. For sale via Inigo.

This project began in a large North London home where the client quite suddenly found the need to downsize. The brief for the new home was to create a complete sanctuary and a sense of living with a beautiful jewel box with a cohesive scheme and sense of wellbeing throughout the space. We designed a whimsical and theatrical guest room for grandchildren and friends to enjoy, inspired by our client’s travels to India. The hallway was given its own unique identity with vertical stripes and a luxurious velvet curtain. The bathroom was designed to be restful and spa-like but we added a unique art deco painted bath and re–purposed our client’s gilded overmantel mirror to bounce light around the room. The reception space had to be meticulously designed to house a dining, kitchen and living area. As the kitchen was within the living area we wanted it to be fully disguised as bespoke furniture clad with Gustavian architectural detailing and painted in a deep chocolate gloss. Finally, an existing outdoor office space was interior designed to feel like an extension of the house, creating a warm and enticing place to work at the bottom of the garden.
I love this home. It is unique and playful, colourful and warm, with a sense of a well-travelled past. Designed by Laura Stephens. Photos: Paul Massey.

“These D.C.-area transplants from Brooklyn wanted to take the model-home vibe out of their spacious new abode. Custom and vintage furniture, tons of texture, and well-placed color help achieve that goal. The homeowners also wanted the home to reflect their world travels, which has been expressed throughout with globally sourced pieces and earthy, natural materials.”

Designer Charlotte Boundy recently completed this collaboration project with Tamzin Greenhill Designs on the restoration and interior design of an end of terrace Victorian 6 bedroom 6,000sq ft house in Primrose Hill. The muted colour palette and feminine touches create such a magical and really pretty vibe. I’m obsessed with that library space with the gorgeous mirror over the fireplace and sparkly chandelier.
