Baptiste Bohu took a client’s impressive art collection and married it with some art deco elegance to create this stunning home in Shanghai. The tile floor in the foyer is GORG!

If this family home designed by Godrich isn’t the definition of fun, then I quit. A visually arresting space, this family home in the West Country uses an abundance of colour and interest to create an amalgamation of aesthetics. Classic mid-century timber furniture graces each space, while bespoke lighting schemes create a truly unique approach to family living. A veritable feast of art work is displayed throughout the house, while one-off antiques and curiosities adorn each corner and cubby hole.

Studio Giancarlo Valle is blowing me away again (last week’s feature here) with this 2300 sq ft loft in Brooklyn that is filled with textures, shapes, colours and lots of unique style. Sublime eye candy.

Ottawa is not known for its interior design scene. Nor do I find there is much creativity when it comes to interiors here. Henrietta Southam is breaking that mold and her style is about as eclectic as you can get. And for those reasons it was an absolute MUST that I share her Victorian home in the ‘hood of New Edinburgh that is currently on the market. It is stunning inside and out and I was so stoked to be able to include some before photos so you can really see the transformation. Henrietta’s ability to blend old with new, to maintain some traditional architectural details while adding in more modern touches, and featuring some really breathtaking antiques, makes this home one of my favourites EVER. I am taking some serious notes for all the upcoming projects in my home. Also, you must follow her on Instagram. She is talented writer to boot, and her descriptions are always a great read. Now, enough talk. Let me introduce you to the best home in Ottawa!

Please forgive me. I have internet connection issues and I’m typing this with chubby iPhone fingers. For now let me just say I love the drama, the contrast and the modern luxury of this Melbourne house by Bayley Ward Architects with styling and furniture selection by Larritt-Evans. I promise to come back and write more when I have a keyboard bigger than a few square centimetres.
