So much wow factor!

Posted on Fri, 9 Sep 2022 by KiM

Honoring a treasured past while incorporating the colorful decades of the Haight-Ashbury. This San Francisco home designed by Nicole Hollis is a colourful modern masterpiece with some Moroccan flair. It’s spectacular! I just noticed it has been recently featured on Architectural Digest with more juciy photos and details/sources.

A whimsical home in Toronto

Posted on Mon, 5 Sep 2022 by KiM

Colette van den Thillart designed this pied-à-terre in Toronto with lots of whimsy, plenty of sophistication and a healthy dose of “global”. So fabulously unique and the perfect mix of light, dark and colourful. (Photos: Alex Lukey)

The maximalist home of Hollis Loudon

Posted on Thu, 1 Sep 2022 by KiM

I came across the portfolio of designer Hollis Loudon Puig of Hollis Loudon Interiors and this first project blew my mind. After some brief sleuthing I discovered it was Hollis’ own maximalist, whimsical home in Loudonville, NY. that she had gut-renovated. It is A LOT of colour and pattern and then some more pattern and I know it’s not to everyone’s taste but I soooo admire her creativity and uniqueness. She even has a room devoted to antique Christmas decorations!

Working on a Saturday

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. OMG I’d love to work in this gastrobar in Valencia. The tile patterns mimic neighbourhood facades. La Sastrería by design studio Masquespacio.

Aspire

The project  is called “Aspire” and I cannot think of a better word to describe this confection of a bedroom. From the fresh (and pretty) colour palette to the deft use of pattern on pattern this romantic room (it’s actually part of the show house for Aspire Design and Home hence the name) is something we would all long for. A lovely boudoir by Washington-based Melissa Colgan Interiors.
