I am head over heels in love with this apartment. Possibly more than the last one I featured by Pepe Leal. I generally hate blue, but I’m dying over the kitchen. And the photo above – is that moldings installed length wise all over the walls? I’d hate to be the one to clean that, but I love that idea! And the powder room sink setup! So cute!

Really lively and bright colours, playful wallpaper, an elaborate gallery wall, and vintage vibes are abundant in this Pennsylvania forever home designed by Michelle Gage. She has added so much energy to each space. Forever indeed! (Photos: Rebecca McAlpin)

As soon as I came across a feature on Russian designer Boris Dmitriev‘s office/apartment in Architectural Digest Russia I laughed because it is such a bold contrast to the office Jo featured yesterday. Located in a building built in 1905 in Moscow, this 84 m² space is so unique. Boris does not shy away from colour or pattern! I know this isn’t for everyone, but his attention to detail and the way he pulls it all together with such cohesion is extraordinary.

Today I’m sharing another prime example of how incredible original details can look whilst modernizing through furnishings and art etc. Designer Claire Larritt-Evans turned this 1880s former dance school in Melbourne into a drop-dead gorgeous family home. Elegant yet chic and current, it may be a bit minimal but it is brought to another level with the beautiful stained glass windows, fireplace and tile floor. (Aside from, well, everything here I’m head over heels for the ball/chain detail in the kitchen and the bedding)

From the dramatic entrance to the sophisticated kitchen to the spa-like bathroom, from the luxury finishes to bespoke joinery, from the carefully restored old to the well considered Sydney-based interior designer Jillian Dinkel has created something very special indeed. This 1904 Victorian boldly broaches the 21th century, a dramatic entrance indeed.
