Colourful and whimsical in a Harlem apartment

Posted on Mon, 8 Mar 2021 by KiM

WOW!!! Walking into the Harlem apartment of designer Courtney McLeod (of Right Meets Left Interior Design) must have everyone immediately grinning from ear to ear. This is BOLD and DRAMATIC and SO MUCH FUN! That saturated blue, mixed with orange and pink (and subtle red and green) is a quirky combination that works so beautifully. And a more calming bedroom with a stunning wallpaper adds sophistication. (Check out more of Courtney’s work here)

Pink and vintage in a Milan apartment

Posted on Sun, 7 Mar 2021 by KiM

This apartment in Milan (of fashion designer Federica Vieros) has many elements that really speak to me so I had to share. Swoon-worthy architecture, unique colour and wallpaper choices, and a covetable collection of vintage lighting, furnishings and accessories make this home absolutely delightful. Via sköna hem.

An elegant Tuscan villa

Posted on Fri, 26 Feb 2021 by KiM

I lose my marbles over every project that Hubert Zandberg gets his paws on. And this one which is a bit more traditional than most of his work is glorious, and perfect in a Tuscan setting. Villa Medane – An exclusive Tuscan villa and estate located in the dramatic hilly countryside outside Siena, a second home for one of our returning clients. The design concept was to create a comfortable retreat that references the centuries old rich history of the area and at the same time incorporates these with a curated mix of both vintage and contemporary elements and found pieces, for contemporary living.

The dreamiest wall of built-in bookcases, mid-century vibes and accents in what you might say is Bachman Brown‘s signature colour of blue make this Greenwich Village apartment cozy and cohesive. I also really love the ochre shade of the bedroom walls.

I have admitted I am not a fan of white trim, so when I see designers take a creative approach with trim I will sing their praises. I love what NYC designer Bachman Brown did in this Fifth Avenue duplex, where much of the colour is in the trim and door frames and fireplace and bookshelf wall and the rest is left neutral to highlight the art and furnishings.
