The Idlewild

Posted on Wed, 1 Dec 2021 by KiM

A contemporary home in Hillsborough, California, with an old soul, the Idlewild honors its turn-of-the-century architecture with a new mien. Lilting and whimsical, it delights in the details. Enfolded in rustic grounds, the Idlewild casts a dreamy chiaroscuro, bringing depth to the past and light to the present. Rich browns, verdant greens, and sweet creams are piqued by amber, poppy, indigo, and pink. Decorative Arts and Crafts textiles ornament linens and wools and court recherché collectibles, candelabras, and art tended by picturesque glazing and pastoral redwood paneling, both original and revived. Romantic, enchanting, sincere, the Idlewild woos: a fairytale for a modern family. Enchanting this really is! Designed by Chroma. (Photos: Shade Degges)

This stately, elegant home in Old Westbury, New York, was designed by Michelle Gerson who played up the elegance of the architecture and went balls to the wall with it. It is modern, sophisticated and imbued with a glamorous WOW factor room by room. (Photos: Douglas Friedman & Howard W. Christian)

A modern, sculptural home in Texas

I really love the bright, neutral, modern vibes happening in this Texas home designed by Amanda Brooke. The entertainment feature wall is a brilliant design choice, with built-in lighting and storage, and the brass accents in the kitchen with matching marble is gorgeous. (Photos: Jack Thompson)
