Lor’s English MCM is a late 1950’s character home with a story to share. The previous owners resided in the home from the time it was first built, upgrading & adding through the years. The end result was a unique time capsule that captured a ranch style MCM flare popularized by architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright. As soon as you enter the space you can feel the distinct personality and upbeat overall feeling. Each room has it’s own distinct characteristics, but there is a cohesion that ties each space together. Colour and warmth transition from one room to the next, overall the space is an upbeat backdrop for a very lively household.
OMG designer (@ For Porter) Laura Collins’ Glamorgan, Calgary rental home is the friggin cutest!!! It’s incredible what a little paint can do to really warm up a space. If your landlord will let you do something other than white, the sky is the limit! Photos: Michelle Johnson

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend then it helps if it’s somewhere stylish like Bunsa Studio‘s own office space.

This gorgeous home on 130 acres is located in Millbrook, in the Hudson Valley. Designed by Cicognani Kalla Architect it is country living at its finest. The great room has two 18th century stone fireplaces, limestone tile floors, and custom French doors. The kitchen opens right up onto fabulous gardens and a stone terrace. It has a heated greenhouse, wine cellar, chicken coop, and outbuildings include caretaker’s home and office. I also found that in December of last year it was for sale for $13.1M. What a dream!

Malvern East Terrace House by Melbourne-based Studio Esteta transforms a double-fronted Victorian terrace into a warm family home that connects seamlessly with its garden. Inspired by Mediterranean villas of Sicily and Southern Europe, the clients aimed for a layered, open space that reflects their favorite travel destinations. The design carefully preserves the home’s heritage, with four rooms reconfigured, including a main bedroom suite and a guest room. A new addition blends modern elements with historic charm, featuring travertine steps, French doors, and a double-height void. The extension prioritizes entertaining, with lofty ceilings and operable glazing uniting indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a harmonious living environment.

“Follow us into this 255 m² Parisian apartment located in the 7th arrondissement, near Les Invalides. This Haussmannian gem has become a vibrant family living space that highlights a unique art collection. Iconic Art Deco furniture pieces stand alongside major contemporary artworks in a fully reimagined Haussmannian architecture.”

Ah I do love Haussmannian apartments! And I do love this renovation by Julien Ensarguet, Pierre Petit and Richard Guilbault of Atelier Daaa.
