Melissa Hutley and Charlie Humm, of London and Surrey based design studio Hutley and Humm love antiques, pattern, relaxed elegance and character. They also clearly love colour and take a really approachable, whimsical and add a touch of modern to their mostly British-vibing spaces. The greens in combination with that marble in the kitchen above completely sold me 🙂

Situated in a historic Victorian mansion block, this one-bedroom flat boasts stunning vistas of Notting Hill and Kensington. Homeowner and designer Nigel opted to maintain a separate eat-in kitchen and turned to Neptune‘s Suffolk collection to complement the building’s classic aesthetics. A pink and black colour palette is elegant while strategic cabinet choices and lighting solutions amplify the feeling of spaciousness. With a repurposed floor cabinet now a bespoke dresser and an L-shaped seating area under the sash window the kitchen has been transformed into an inviting albeit bijou entertaining haven.

Interior designer Polly Ashman transformed this semi detached Victorian home in West London into a family-friendly, warm and cheerful home with the use of lots of colours and patterns in the most pleasant and easy-to-live-with ways. Bold but not too bold. Bright but not too bright. Maximum comfort level. And she even added the prettiest green to the kitchen crittall doors.

Reimagining the traditional bungalow, this stunning urban house in Atwater, Los Angeles, seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. Turning its back to the street the living spaces open onto a vibrant backyard. Lovingly planted with wildflowers, edible berries, and grasses by the homeowners the backyard evokes a profound sense of intimacy and connection. The main living area unites the living, dining and kitchen spaces in an open concept offering a delightful treehouse-like view over the backyard oasis. Modern Bungalow by Rios.

This apartment in Wrocław, Poland is such a note-worthy example of how to take a small space and make it grand. Not being afraid to use some colour (particularly loving the unexpected chartreuse baseboards), not shying away from using rather large furniture (that squishy sofa), adding an adorable hex tile floor in the kitchen to delineate it without taking up space, and all that built-in bedroom storage. Finchstudio did a wonderful job designing this apartment. Photos: Aleksandra Dermont.
