Celebrating colour and art

Posted on Thu, 19 Oct 2023 by midcenturyjo

“Colour, materiality and the stimulus of art influence the many layers which interior architects and designers, Venetia Rudebeck and Romanos Brihi assemble in their work. Studio Vero was launched in 2014 and has since established a design vernacular for thoughtful spaces which combine a warmth, elegance, a reverence for tradition and sense of place.”

A joyful celebration of living with oomph. This Notting Hill house by Studio Vero is no shrinking violet. Colour, pattern, texture and standout art combine to bring to life modern family living.

Timeless history and charm

The Northamptonshire country house, once soulless due to poor renovations, found new life through a thoughtful redesign. Every corner was reimagined, with the old drawing room transformed into a spacious kitchen and scullery, allowing for informal yet elegant entertaining. The former kitchen became a cozy library, adorned with rich hues and bookshelves. A light-filled day room provided a relaxing space, connecting the house with its history. The blend of old and new pieces created a timeless atmosphere, fostering a comfortable, fun, and enduring family life.

An English Colonial home in Upstate NY

We uniquely reimagined this country estate and distinguished our design by its historic architecture, creating a dwelling that is equal parts past and present. Old-age European lifestyle and new-age sustainability are some of the hallmarks of our work and this home was intentionally imbued with character and richness, using vintage wherever possible. Throughout the home, we installed 80% vintage lighting and 60% vintage finds to support our sustainable ethos and convey a collected home full of sensible luxury.
I adore the moody colour palette (whiskey room is Farrow & Ball’s Pantalon, kitchen cabinets are Drab) and textural materials (they are clearly huge fans of shearling chairs) used throughout this home designed by Light and Dwell. Epic cozy levels here. Photos: Tim Lenz.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Salt Contemporary Art by Rebecca Jansma Interior Design.

Paradise in Paradise Valley

A sprawling house in a sprawling landscape. It could overwhelming. Instead, it’s warm, welcoming and all-encompassing. Think rustic vibes with a mix of traditional and contemporary elements. Modern Mediterranean in Arizona by Scottsdale-based OZ Architects.
