Many of you have likely seen this to-die-for SoHo loft already, when it was owned by actress Meg Ryan and featured in Architectural Digest, but I had to share and give you a second look because it is has a Parisian vibe I live for and is designed by one of the best – Monique Gibson. A prime example of how mostly black and white can work so sooooooo well. And why subway and hex tiles will always be at the top of my list.

I dream of living in a home with a black exterior. This one in Summit Park, Utah by Park City Design + Build would certainly be a dream to own. Nestled among pine trees it blends into the landscape with the help of its cedar-clad exterior. It is currently for sale via cityhomeCOLLECTIVE. The TreeHaus is a site driven, highly responsive design + build project.  Reacting to the steeply wooded site, the house is arranged in a series of cubic geometries that imbed themselves into the thermal comfort of the hillside, coupling the stepped retaining walls as external boundaries.  Socially, the spaces are arranged so that the primary public living areas are vertically sandwiched between to levels of private spaces, utilizing the stepped rhythm of the form as deck and patio space to create an open indoor outdoor experience.   

Oh how I love some loft eye candy! This one by Chicago interior designer Anthony Michael is really eclectic and a whole lot of fun. A distinctive global vibe is evident throughout this glorious loft which adds a lot of warmth to the mostly-exposed-brick space, and painting some of the brick out in white makes it brighter and less industrial. Even the motorcycle parked within the loft works 🙂 (More of his work here and here)

A fresh, fabulous, family home in a light-filled apartment in New York City and to-die-for windows? Sounds amazing … and it is! The added bonus is the modern black and white scandi vibe with blonde wood. West Village Apartment by U.S. and Brit-based Sheep + Stone Interiors.

Still no internet at home. Still relying on my phone. Still making spelling mistdkes because of my fat fingers. Still in love with everything that Workstead designs. Woven rattan … swoon.
