CHU Interiors creates homes that feel warm, layered and effortlessly lived-in. The studio’s design approach focuses on balancing old and new, mixing texture, tone and thoughtful detail to create spaces that evolve beautifully over time. Every room is considered for how it feels as much as how it looks … from an entry that instantly welcomes you in to golden-hour light spilling across this Lakewood,Dallas dining room. The result is a home that’s inviting, timeless and designed for everyday living.

Tom Mark Henry collaborated with Laminex to explore its True to Nature: Next Generation Woodgrains.

Finch Interior Design, led by Nicola Crawford, brings an eclectic yet contemporary spirit to their Canonbury project. Nicola’s approach centres on creating homes that feel authentic, relaxed and deeply personal, shaped by over a decade of renovation experience and a talent for crafting sophisticated spaces with a subtle edge. Her “every item matters” philosophy ensures thoughtful, design-led decisions throughout. In this project, that vision becomes a warm, characterful home where thoughtful layout, styling and curation come together.

Set within Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, Emerald House breathes new life into a heritage-listed 1890s Victorian residence. Alexander & Co. craft a dialogue between past and present, where family living and entertaining unfold within layers of history and modern ease. Light and landscape flow through a new rear extension, connecting the reoriented kitchen and family spaces to a lush north-facing garden. The parent’s retreat becomes a private haven, complete with walk-in robe, balcony and ensuite. Inside, a palette of burgundy and green stone, dark timber, brass and leather strikes a balance between drama and serenity, yielding a home both grounded and glamorous.

Studio Hessian, a London-based practice, revitalised a 1940s clapboard beach cottage in Los Angeles into a cosy yet contemporary retreat. Timber ceilings were exposed and stained dark for warmth and character, while classic panelling deepens the home’s texture. In the kitchen, butter-yellow cabinetry, colour-washed walls and a contrasting mauve trim evoke a cheerful, retro-modern feel. Antique furnishings, curated artwork, a gingham sofa and layered florals infuse the space with relaxed bohemian charm and fresh artistic spirit.
