Nestled on 85 acres in Queenstown New Zealand, Speargrass House seamlessly combines rustic charm with practical elegance for a lively family with four boys. Embracing its natural surroundings, the house boasts mountain views of The Remarkables and Coronet Peak. A palette of blues, saffron, and silvery greys mirrors the expansive sky and rocky landscapes. Stone features prominently, adorning walls, floors, and fireplaces. European oak floors and custom maple joinery elements bring warmth. Speargrass House interiors by Sydney-based Arent & Pyke.

A country club respite for our busy professional Bostonian clients. Much of the club’s exteriors reflect a quintessential New England shingle style architecture. The internals had succumbed to dated late 90s and early 2000s renovations of inexpensive materials void of craftsmanship. Our client’s aesthetic balances on the scales of hyper minimalism, clean surfaces, and void of visual clutter. Our palette of color, materiality & textures kept to this notion while generating movement through vintage lighting, comfortable upholstery, and Unique Forms of Art.
Sounds swanky at first but surprisingly not, though the clean, textured and neutral elegance of the space is exactly what you would expect from Moore House Design. Photos: Jared Kuzia.

This expansive and incredibly majestic château in Creuse, France is move-in ready and every inch is beautifully restored. It includes a scullery, service entrance, 2 dining rooms, cellar, 8 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, village entrance (?), library, smoking room, linen room and sooo much more. 10 years of restoration work reveals collection of 17th century embossed leather panels and wallpapers dating from the late 19th century. Now THIS is a DREAM piece of history you could own for €1,198,000 (via Patrice Besse)

This remarkable hilltop dwelling seamlessly blends industrial charm with contemporary design. Three interconnecting pavilions sit atop a hillside in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. Think contemporary design meets industrial-style barns, open-plan spaces and precast concrete panels. Connecting the pavillions is an art gallery walk defining areas and connecting with the vast landscape. In such a rural area sustainability takes centre stage, featuring solar power, rainwater harvesting and fire safety measures. This off-grid residence embodies meticulous planning, offering a unique blend of form, function, and environmental consciousness. Highlands House by Luke Maloney Architecture.

In redesigning this Brooklyn Heights apartment, interior designer Augusta Hoffman has drawn inspiration from the neighbourhood’s elegant brownstones. The space is contemporary yet in harmony with the historic surroundings. A combination of antique and modern furniture, a blending of styles, makes for a unique atmosphere. Small details, like brass accents and a scenic mural, add character. The resulting apartment is a harmonious mix of warmth, sophistication, and subtle drama, inviting without being overpowering.
