A meld of materials, textures, and elements indigenous to the surrounding Mexico region and landscape
Nicole Hollis can take something as casual as a beachfront home in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and add her dramatic touches with art and lighting and accents to create a unique statement. Beachy never looked so cool. (Photos: Douglas Friedman)

Things are not always as they seem. A classic white-clad Hamptons exterior and inside a sophisticated urban home. Just like the two halves of interior desiner Timothy Godbold. Aussie born now Long Island-based with not only the creator of high-end design but also an author of military style in fashion. It seems that opposites attract and it results in eye-catching liveable luxury.

The clients had a growing art collection. The interior designer had the cool ideas. The result is a liveable, character-filled home celebrating the lives and lifestyles of the owners. Art House by Melbourne-based Chelsea Hing.

P.S. Does anyone else want to lick those pink marshmallow walls?

Paris based interior designer Pauline Lorenzi Boisrond of Studio Ett Hem is an alchemist. She combines functionality and aesthetics and the result is magic. This is a Haussmannian apartment but it’s Haussmannian with a twist. The original spaces take on an almost Art Deco feel but the hero of the design is the custom joinery. Exquisite.

We have been featuring the work of renowned photographer Graham Atkins-Hughes for many years and I was delighted to hear from him the other day. He wanted to share the home he recently purchased and renovated (it was in quite a state when he bought it, and there are before photos at the end of this post). It is a triplex apartment in Hackney, East London that is available for photo shoots and features some retro vintage furnishings that has always been his signature style. Graham’s new home is fabulous with a kitchen that is now modern and filled with light from 2 large windows, a luxurious master bedroom with en-suite, a gorgeous modern bathroom tiled with large format tiles resembling polished concrete with corner bath (looove!!!!) and a lofty bedroom that also has great windows.

He’s done such an incredible job with this home, getting rid of the bland and ugly and creating a cool, vintage-vibing place. I had to share some of the before photos given the condition it was in which shows how much of a project this was. Great job Graham!!!
