This 1820s Creole cottage compound in New Orleans’ French Quarter has been transformed by Young Projects, an architecture and design firm based in New York City. The property features a main house with a classic four-square layout and a carriage house. The interiors are thoughtfully curated with the primary rooms—bar, music room, salon, and dining room—each showcasing distinct colours, finishes, materials and furnishings. Custom gold leaf doorways connect these spaces creating seamless yet dramatic transitions. The property also includes a tranquil walled courtyard with a swimming pool and old-growth trees enhancing its blend of historic charm and modern sophistication.

In 1985, a historic Redfern warehouse built in 1903 as McMurties Shoe Factory underwent one of Sydney’s first warehouse-to-apartment transformations. Today, Studio Noakes has worked their magic refurbishing one of the apartments. The building’s heritage shines through high ceilings, hardwood columns and exposed rafters. The studio carefully restored and enhanced these industrial features, seamlessly blending history with a contemporary aesthetic. Bold colours, expansive forms and textured spaces highlight the client’s dynamic art collection, showcasing works from local talents. Fusing natural, vintage and iconic pieces has created a vibrant harmony in this young artist’s home. The result is a space that balances historical character with creative energy, reflecting the vibrancy of its inner-city surroundings.

Vaughan Design & Development recently took on the interior design for a spacious six-bedroom family home in Harpenden in Hertfordshire, England. As a new build, the goal was to add warmth, character and functionality to accommodate the clients’ busy lives with young children. Advocates of colour and playful design, Vaughan also needed practical features like a first-floor laundry, boot room, large playroom and luxurious adult spaces. The studio blended natural materials with layered details, traditional fittings and vibrant elements creating a bright, joyful home tailored to the family’s needs.
