This project holds special meaning for Hampshire-based Vaughan as it is their own family home. Quirky, imperfect and full of personality, the house is a continual work in progress. While the structure existed it has been thoughtfully renovated over time. With young children, the evolving needs of daily life informed their design choices, bringing joy in creating a home that grows and adapts over time.

















Hilltop House by Sydney-based Richards Stanisich is a thoughtfully designed family home that merges emotion with elegance. In collaboration with Stafford Architecture, the interior design embraces the site’s elevated harbour views and architectural form. The brief called for warmth and texture within a clean, modern structure. A dark, layered palette adds intimacy, balanced by abundant natural light. Seamless integration with the garden was key; external paving continues indoors, while a draped linen ceiling subtly echoes the surrounding tree canopy, enhancing connection and flow throughout.

On the Upper East Side, Australian interior designer Greg Natale’s New York townhouse reflects the city’s vibrant spirit and its owner’s global influences. Once a mixed-use building, it now blends Italian craftsmanship and Parisian flair. Natale reinstated the original two-door entrance and infused the interiors with bold marble, vintage finds, and bespoke details like the floral chandelier by Crizu. Inspired by a pink and green palette, the layered design celebrates art, culture, and creativity, with the ground floor serving as a dedicated art school.

This full gut renovation of a 2800 square foot existing loft apartment located in the heart of Soho offers a refuge of calm for the homeowners in contrast to the bustle of Soho just outside the front door. The design concept worked to achieve a tranquil respite through an encompassing interior that feels at once calm and cozy. A relatively minimal architectural expression achieves this serenity when paired with the lived-in and eclectic curation of furniture, lighting, and art. The warmth of white oak millwork, hand-finished limewash, and plaster wall treatments ensure the space feels approachable and unified. Vintage pieces were collected on trips to antique fairs, like Brimfield and Round Top and are paired with contemporary furniture and art, primarily from independent makers.
Designed by Stephanie Betesh of Ember Studio, this loft is exactly the respite I would want from the hustle and bustle of the crazy city outside those windows. It is incredibly serene, earthy and organic. Everything you need to relax when you walk in the door. Photos: David Mitchell.
