I am not typically drawn to homes that are “unattainable” like this one in Central London which apparently went on the market in the spring for $72 million (?!?!?!) but Albion Nord kept the feel in here pretty casual considering the price point (which was listed with the furnishings included) and I am in love with the earthy, moody colours used so I opted to share regardless.

Bold and dramatic, avante garde and family-friendly. What a combination. The owners approached Regina Perez Montemayor of Studio Montemayor to work her design magic on their San Francisco home. Blending distinct design styles and eras the rooms are eclectic and unexpected showcasing fabulous art and revelling in a bold colour palette.

This home in central Paris designed by Tristan Auer has almost all of my favourite design elements – some dark spaces, funky lighting, gothic windows, an industrial style kitchen, floral wallpaper AND stair runner, and even has something I never knew I needed but now I know I do – a platform with a clawfoot tub, book storage AND a lounge nook. So unique, dramatic and utterly fabulous. Photos: Amaury Laparra & Nicolas Mathéus

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Office by Dorothée Delaye.

“Hancock Park is known for gracious homes that offer a striking mix between classic English Tudors and fanciful Old Hollywood architecture. Our goal was to preserve the essence of the home while also making necessary updates that would support the harmony, functionality, and appeal of the space. This meant leaving in some of the more ‘dated’ elements and creating an interior atmosphere that would compliment the original themes. We invited a new edge into our work by bringing romance and mystery into a family home, something unexpected. The result proved that sensuality and soul can add a necessary warmth to familial spaces.”

Beautifully curated and almost cave-like, an oasis from the glare outside the windows. Muted, mossy, mature and marvellous. Hancock Park Tudor by Jake Arnold.
