Books and art and books and art!!!! I adore this Upper Est Side apartment belonging to architect Carlos Garciavelez and interior designer David Lawrence of design firm Carlos David. Aside from the books and art they created lots of graphic, impactful elements that I adore in what is a simple layout. Brilliant!

“Our intervention aims to be respectful of pre-existing and timeless in nature. We wanted to recover all the existing elements in good condition to give them a second life and generate the least possible waste. We have rescued the hydraulic tiles of the original building in the bathrooms, walls and floors. The new materials have been chosen with the aim of revaluing local trades and crafts.”

“Warmth and charm were infused into this 1790’s farm by clearly defining the personality of every room – yet having small moments of connection to make the home feel complete. We worked with the home’s existing floor plan to maintain the historical character and updated all the finishes, paint colors and furnishings so it’s liveable but not too precious.”

A celebration of pattern and colour, bespoke and antique, this home is packed with personality and history. It’s about welcoming family and friends and overstuffed comfort for all, about cottage living mixed with modern conveniences. Historic Farm by Cameron Ruppert.

“Hidden in a 18th-century hotel particulier, Charles Zana’s private apartment reveals all its secrets. Coated in a sage green, every room is punctuated with objects and pieces of furniture from eras that have nothing in common. Charles Zana has always liked to intersect various periods. From well-known Italian designers from the post-war era to the spirit of Enlightenment, the French interior designer prefers a subtle luxury and understated lines.”

There is nothing more inspiring than a designer’s own home. Boundaries are pushed, risks taken and discord or beauty or even better both emerge. Orsay, Paris by Charles Zana.

“This project combined tonal fabrics, natural materials and textures to create a calming beach retreat. Though neutral in tone, the space comes to life with the layering of plaster, travertine, rattan and linens.”

Just when you think it’s another beige on beige home BAM! pattern on pattern in the guestroom and bathroom. Stone, rattan and tropical wallpaper. What more could you want in a beachside getaway?  John’s Island by Cameron Ruppert.
