“Set on the banks of the Brisbane River this three-level apartment was transformed into a warm and welcoming home for a young family of four. The extensive renovation saw SLI strip the entire apartment back to its bones before reconfiguring it into a four-bedroom, four-bathroom home. Our primary objective was to create a space that seamlessly blends sophistication, functionality, and a sense of comfort with a focus on adding warmth and texture. Each level has been thoughtfully curated to cater to the specific needs and preferences of the family, providing a seamless flow between shared spaces and private retreats.”

Style and substance with an amazing view. I love sharing homes from my part of the world. New Farm Residence by Samantha Leigh.

A range hood and headboard created from architectural salvage from France. A French sideboard converted into an island. A lacquered yellow butlers pantry. A curved plaster staircase. A speakeasy behind a hidden door with a massive bar. A gentleman’s office hidden behind a wall panel in the dressing room. Annie Brahler of Euro Trash is the absolute queen of drama and this home is dramatic like I’ve never seen. Her jaw-dropping use of European salvage is what really sets her apart from other designers and her lack of fear and always stepping outside the box is really inspiring. I’m obsessed.

This modernist home by Josh Greene Design plays with 70s nostalgia and desert colours of ochre, pinks and browns. Custom furniture mixes with mid-century classics while monumental stone anchors it all. An oasis in an inhospitable terrain all about functionality, warmth, refinement, and comfort.

Similar to the last project by Yond Interiors I shared, this one also features lots of beautiful muted colours with a bit of a darkness that creates such a mood. There is again a warmth that is really wonderful and this takes “modern colonial” to a place that I think is really timeless and versatile and speaks to me on so many levels. Photos: Erin Little

What was once a boxy, cramped 1920s lakehouse located among Ohio’s Portage Lakes, is now a swanky residence for a retired “single, older gentleman” who is I betcha going to find himself an equally swanky partner now that he has these cool digs! A bit mad men and a bit roaring ’20s is where Tanner Sammons and Jennifer Laouari of Morgan Madison Design took this home and it is possibly one of the classiest lakehouses I’ve ever seen.
