My love for statement stone kitchens particularly in Victorian-era spaces still knows no bounds. Add in a hint of mid century and abstract art and it’s just about perfect. Chelsea Townhouse by Hunt Architecture.

Formal and relaxed, classic and contemporary, inside to out. It’s the perfect mix of the best of the original California bungalow and a modern extension to the rear. Calm and welcoming with restrained touches of luxury modern living. My favourite space? Why the kitchen with its modern reworking of an art deco vibe. Queens Park House by Sydney-based Arent & Pyke.

I have always had a love for dark and dramatic interiors and find that the bright/warm/neutral trend seems to overwhelmingly be the norm these days. So hats off to Brianne Bishop Design for this modern, moody, grey, dramatic design for a new build in Bucktown, Chicago. Edgy and fabulous.

More from Perspective this time a wonderful series of outdoor spaces surrounding a country house in Rute in the north of Sweden’s Gotland. Once again Scandinavian design meets elements of Eastern philosophy, wabi-sabi, the perfectly imperfect. I love it all, the pool, the al fresco dining, fireplaces and old greenhouse but most of all the conservatory. I never realised I needed a conservatory … until now.

Back in 2017 Jo shared some spaces that were done in rich yet muted colours by Belgian designer Natalie Haegeman. I was perusing her portfolio and was mesmerized by both her colourful and neutral spaces and wanted to share some more of her work here. So moody with lots of antiques and textures and patinas. Brilliant.
