It’s an American dream. No not the hustle and bustle of a city that never sleeps or a muscle car and homecoming queen. It’s a shingle clad country cottage in a verdant garden. It’s a simple yet refined family and friends sort of place with its mixture of antiques and new, wood and raffia, white with an occasional splash of black. Southhampton by Mark Cunningham.

Contemporary meets rustic in this Madrid apartment by Las Perelli. Think a restrained colour palette of off whites and sands, a mix of vintage and modern pieces, shiny metals against linen and rattan and always light-filled rooms with floaty curtains skimming floors.

“The Barrow Street brownstone is a classic 1850s Victorian brownstone in Jersey City’s Van Vorst Park. With many of its beautiful, original details left intact—including crown molding, stained glass windows, and a unique wooden grand staircase—And Studio’s vision was to preserve and amplify the space’s character while layering in modern functionality, depth, and warmth. Inspired by the tactile utility of London townhouses, we sought out to create a home that felt wholly authentic, a balance of nuanced detail and open space.” ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Zen and the art of respectful restoration by And Studio Interiors. With a nod to the past, this Victorian-era home more than fulfils the needs of modern living whilst celebrating the history of the house.

After surviving a fire and an unsympathetic renovation this Victorian terrace house has been gently and beautifully restored by Melbourne-based design firm Beatrix Rowe. A neutral colour palette, bespoke cabinetry and furniture, “floating” Calacatta marble benches in the kitchen and bathroom and custom arched doors all combine to create a zen like contemporary home. Speaking of bathrooms can we just take a moment to appreciate the beauty of that bathroom? Swoon!
