This 1930s apartment in west London was renovated and given a whole new stylish life thanks to designer Anna Møller. A foyer with the prettiest marble mosaic floor, an elegant and classic marble fireplace in the living room with mirror added to the alcoves, rich-toned wood cabinets in the kitchen, a wine-red drenched sitting room (this colour is FABULOUS), a sophisticated bedroom with dressing room and ensuite and an adorable kid’s room rounds out this gorgeous family home, and lots of moldings added to the walls (always a hit with me).

Interior designer Emma Shone-Sanders of east London-based studio Design & That created an earthy neutral, contemporary vibe in this glorious four-storey, five-bedroom sympathetically restored Victorian home for a family. The unfussy and sophisticated approach suits the home so well, and gives it an air of elegance but the muted colour palette adds a coziness at the same time. Photos: Ellen Christina Hancock.

Set within a Victorian terrace in North London this family home was reimagined by Laura Stephens with colour, warmth and character at its core. With paint colours already chosen by the client, Stephens introduced bold fabrics, vintage finds and bespoke furniture. Playful pattern mixing, a hallmark of her studio, added energy, from a patterned runner against mosaic tiles to layered rugs and artwork. The result is a colourful, cosy home rich with individuality and charm.

In Biarritz, designer Camille Lavigne has reimagined a 19th-century apartment with sweeping views over the ocean and casino as a refined yet timeless retreat. Light moves effortlessly through spaces that reflect the rhythm of the sea and surrounding rocks without falling into coastal clichés. Soft natural tones, organic textures, and fluid lines shape the atmosphere. With artisans’ craftsmanship, Lavigne introduced thoughtful details and elegant finishes, giving the apartment both sophistication and enduring character.

In the coastal town of Caldes d’Estrach, John Brown Projects designed Armonia, a serene retreat that captures the essence of Mediterranean living. Owned by a Catalan family now based in Australia, the beach house offers an escape from southern winters into long Spanish summers. Modern comforts are balanced with traditional character, creating an elegant, deeply personal home. Within the house time slows, inviting relaxation, connection and the enduring rhythm of coastal life rooted in heritage and memory.
