This is a lot of house for a vacation home but what a vacation home it is! Built in 1770, this riverfront home in Easton, Maryland designed by Jess Weeth of Weeth Home honours its history and was at the same time brought into the present making it a functional and beautiful for years to come. I love that it has a bit of sophistication, cottagecore, and beach vibes. Stunning. Photos: Keyanna Bowen.

Some people may be “over” the rustic barn/cabin vibe but when it is an actual, authentic barn and cabin I will never be over it. In this case it is the sympathetic renovation of a horse barn and pondside fishing cabin on a 200-acre estate in Sharon, Connecticut by designer Virginia Tupker. This is sooooo warm and inviting and “leave your shoes on” and “I hope the dog’s paws aren’t muddy but if they are we can just laugh about it”. Some photos: Dylan Chandler.

I love a sneak peek into a designer’s personal space. It’s like peering into their design zeitgeist. Thomas Geerlings of Dutch interior architecture and design firm Framework has created a home that is carefully curated with treasures and memories. With its sense of individual style and some amazing furniture pieces colour plays a huge part in the joy these family spaces bring.

This iconic 1830s “Charleston single” house in downtown Charleston underwent a two-year renovation. Originally featuring two main rooms, a centre hallway, an attic with dormers and fireplaces in every room, a double-tiered piazza shades the western side with an addition to the rear. Modern updates blend with history through custom tiles, William Morris wallpaper and antiques, creating a comfortable, stylish home for the family. Pitt Street, Charleston, SC by Project Basics.

Two guest cabins designed by April Tomlin. The first one is really a mood with lots of dark grey/light black and the other is much brighter. While both are beautiful I will always take dark over light, particularly whe it is a small cabin because I find it so much cozier/enveloping. Which would you prefer staying in?
