I love an English interior. A little bit traditional, not afraid of pattern clash, surprisingly lots of colour and always that touch of quirkiness. What’s that you say? English interiors are all magnolia paint, naff wallpaper and overstuffed pleather sofas? Not this fabulous interior by Rosanna Bossom. That’s my inspiration!

From Florida we’re off to Long Island, to Montauk and another beach house this time by Studio Robert McKinley. A more neutral palette and a distinct mid-century vibe but the same beachy chic. Casual doesn’t mean an absence of style.

This Park Avenue apartment by Julie Hillman is another beautiful example of thoughtful curation. Hillman “feels that every item in a room should be in conversation with one another while maintaining its own significance.” Distinctive, timeless, and unique.

“I am drawn to natural pieces and finishes and artisan craftsmanship, I believe deeply in the integration of old and new, creating a timelessness. Taking into consideration the context and architectural history of a project is essential for my design process. I am forever sourcing antiques and have an eye for extraordinary pieces that might otherwise go unseen or unloved. Moreover, I see myself as a curator of spaces, as much as I do an interior designer.”

“He redefines a free modernity that isn’t opposed to the past but rather incorporates historical references, a discrete ambience and a taste for the intimate while also being daring with bold combinations and through the imaginative use of light and space. Casiraghi delights in overturning the codes of interior design with surprising contrasts: neon light with ancient mirrors, precious fabrics with industrial resin, and antique furniture with extravagant plant displays, always with a seductive harmony and an invitation to travel, sometimes calm, sometimes exotic.”

It’s a marriage of timeless classicism and modernity, a respect for the past with an exploration of the new. A cursory glance and you think “Ah yes a lovely traditional Parisian apartment” but look more closely and you’ll see the twist. It’s like adding spice to the dish.
