In inner Sydney, an artist and musician transformed their 19th-century Victorian terrace home, guided by their love for heritage, art and innovative ideas. The renovation incorporates hexagonal grey tiles, sparking a creative blend of materials, geometries, and textures. The design emphasizes openness, light and a strong indoor-outdoor connection. Sliding doors welcome in natural light, while a customized ‘cabinet of curiosities’ showcases their collections. The courtyard garden, reminiscent of a Victorian fernery, features vibrant art and unique architectural elements. Throughout, the original terrace’s charm is preserved, honouring its fireplaces, ceilings, floorboards, and stairs. Darlinghurst Terrace by Sam Crawford Architects.

Casa almóada is a quirky and secretly secluded 4-bedroom Boutique Home (12+) which has flourished from its XIX century rammed-earth walls, right at the heart of the purest Algarve. This hidden and serene countryside – where the rugged shapes of the “Barrocal” hold hands (1.5km) with the picturesque little town of São Brás de Alportel (Southern Portugal) – is the faithful guardian of dazzling beaches kissed by the enchanting Ria Formosa.
This is how I want to vacation – easy, breezy and totally casual and inviting. Your stay at almóada includes a fully equipped kitchen & outdoor plancha, on-hand concierge, chlorine-free heated plunge pool, indoor & outdoor fireplaces, king sized beds and a long list of extra experiences (the traditional dinner, exclusive wine & art interpretative session sounds lovely!). Loooove the pool area and outdoor dining space – and that view! Oh what a fabulous vacation spot this would be! Click here to book stay at this gem.
