“Timeless, collected and chic, this tasteful family home was designed with love for a couple with a worldly sensibility. Drawing from both English countryside homes & quirky London flats, we brought in a playful palate of furnishings that would act as an effortless backdrop to the young art historians’ beautiful collection of antiques and notable works of art.”

It’s all about colour and pattern, wallpaper and a mix of antiques and modern. It’s what I would call quintessentially British decor but it’s definitely American. The best of both worlds. Carmelina by Meghan Eisenberg.

The ’70s Rêve

Posted on Tue, 10 Jan 2023 by midcenturyjo

“Intoxicating and serene, the ’70s Rêve is a glam rock riff on the sultry vibes and breezy bliss of bohemian life. Restored and reconceived, this lush estate in Ross, California, exudes a balmy calm with a sexy swagger. Earthy and sumptuous, playfully plush, it teems with the effervescent cool of a YSL muse—both ageless and of the moment.”

If that’s the way Alexis Tompkins and Leann Conquer, the design duo behind San Francisco-based Chroma describe this house then anything I can add is just useless verbiage. Crazy perfect!

I have dreams of living in a house with so much space I don’t even know what to do with it all. What would I do with 29 rooms spread over 10,000 square feet? I think a home that large could be overwhelming but in the case of Jean Stoffer she took up this challenge like a champ and turned this historic Grand Rapids home into something spectacular. There are so many fabulous rooms Jean created in her home I could only narrow it down to 28 photos. There’s even a kitchenette between the master bedroom and bathroom 🙂 (Photos: Stoffer Interiors Photography)

It is unfortunate this listing doesn’t have more photos than this but from what few glimpses are available of this incredibly beautiful 17th château in Loudun (a commune in the Vienne department and the region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, western France), I am in love. Pretty sure I would have walked through that front door, seen the limestone staircase and passed right out. Listed via Denniel Immobilier.

It’s private

“Tucked away in a historic mews courtyard in the heart of London’s Mayfair district, the lounge interior balances the Art Deco references with the 1960s & 70s Modernism. The focal point of the spacious lounge is the grand undulating fireplace located beneath the linear skylight.”
