Maintaining original Mediterranean Revival architecture in this gorgeous home in Palm Beach was the best decision the owners and designer Mark D. Sikes could have made. Cypress ceilings, metal railings, decorative bottle-glass faux windows, and even a family crest of dubious origin over the living room fireplace were kept intact. Greens and blues and a bit of coral, some stenciling, hand-painted wallpaper and lots of patterns in tile, upholstery and rugs make this home a bit nautical, a bit old world and layered in a way only a seasoned designer can.

I have never seen a more vivacious, flamboyant, vivid and spirited home than that of creative consultant Max Hurd in collaboration with designer Benedict Foley. This Victorian terrace house in London could not be more fun and energizing. The attention to detail and the somewhat random colours used throughout his home….someone with a home like this must have such a wonderful outlook on life. I want to be his friend.

“Expressing a desire to retain the traditional and formal layout of this double-fronted house, the client’s brief was to create a home that championed the existing traditional elements while creating a vibrant and personality-filled home for a young and busy family. With areas for family living and entertaining spaces for the adults, the home affords both practicality and versatility.”

The designer simply calls this project a “Kitchen, pantry, and living room in this 80’s tract home turned Spanish Colonial dream.” I call it joyous, family-centred and packed with personality. Pattern and colour overload with practicality but also with fun. I now have to make that pantry my own! Coastal Kitchen and Pantry by interior designer Meta Coleman.

A computer game designer asked Scotland-based Studio Sam Buckley to “create a room that makes people say ‘Wow’ upon seeing the space” and Sam 150% delivered!!! Really creative colours (today’s theme) and patterns join forces to solidify the deal. His client must be the envy of all their friends.
