Rising like a dream above clouds of white flowers is Casa Santa Magdalena in Menorca, Spain. Rustic yet sophisticated, a celebration of natural materials and the history of the building by Paris-based Argentinian architect Luis Laplace who delights in the juxtaposition of tradition and craft with pops of modern. A dream house I’d never want to leave.

“This place is so special to us because it’s our own studio headquarters in Whitley Heights! The space is in a constant state of flux and encompasses our love of furniture, art, design, and all things beautiful. The upstairs area is where our founding partners, Kat Bell and James Drew, reside. The downstairs is our studio office which serves as a creative hub for our team.”

A home (and a workspace) should be packed with personality. What you surround yourself with should be what you love, whaqt makes you laugh, what makes your mind spin and your creative juices flow. Whitley Heights by L.A.-based Argyle.

Full of character and colour. Just one look and you know it’s quintessential English style. Old sits with new while pattern is layered and celebrated. It’s all eminently sensible and it’s all a lot of jolly fun. Living life well in the Riverside House, West London by Kate Guinness.

Taking a home that is devoid of personality, colour and texture, and breathing new life into its walls is something that brings us unending joy. Nestled in Vancouver’s British Properties, the exterior of this stunning modernist-style home didn’t match its bland interior. The extensive 12-month renovation saw the home take on a new and exciting persona. The clients had asked us to be bold, experimental and create something not easily reproducible. Inspired by the bungalow-style homes of the Hollywood Hills, we took a page from days gone by and married a more modern aesthetic with one that felt classic and with real history. Our homes should reflect what we want to see in the world, and for this homeowner that meant boldness, colour and warmth. The furniture and decor were curated and sourced globally, with cutting-edge design paired with seamlessly with antique pieces.
Another project by PlaidFox Studio, this one is more modern and what they’re known for, whilst oozing with creativity and personality. I am obsessed with Montreal’s Lambert & Fils lighting and the Parc collection lights over the kitchen island look incredible. (Photos: Ema Peter)

Is it the weekend yet? Please? I think I’ll spend today daydreaming that I’m holidaying at this spectacularly renovated 300-year-old finca with nine luxurious bedroom suites, a saltwater swimming pool, dedicated wellness area and a sound-proofed party cave. Yes a sound-proofed party cave. For me it’s just a dream but maybe you can go. Finca La Inika available for rent via Domus Nova.
