According to a House Beautiful feature on this Toronto home, designer Ali Budd was given carte blanche on decorating the main floor and second-floor primary suite but the homeowners insisted she include a bubble gum-pink range they had purchased. And shades of pink became a reoccurring feature in most of the spaces – a saturated mauve-drenched living room, a powder room with a pink quartzite-clad vanity, a butler’s pantry in Gucci pink floral wallpaper, a blush tone rug in the primary suite…. I love it! Photos: Lauren Miller.

Paola Moretti’s vision combines being both an interior designer with an artistic sensibility. Ranging from contemporary art to design, from cinema to fashion and architecture, from newly built to historic buildings through extraordinaries unexpected contaminations. Therefore she has established a fertile dialogue among past and future, old and new, ancient and contemporary. A constant exchange which enhances the identity of the space. Her goal or mission is to preserve the future. A personal, richly poetic and emotional vision of interiors, comprised of tradition, contemporaneity and worlds, in a timeless aesthetic journey because nothing is more contemporary than the eternal.

Perched on a Byron Bay hillside, Misty Creek Farmhouse has been transformed by Studio Isaza to bring warmth, charm and practicality back to a once dated home. Led by founder Jana Isaza-Smith, the project embraces the client’s playful spirit while grounding it in timeless materials and thoughtful detail. What began as a simple consulting role grew into a close collaboration, resulting in a home that feels joyful, layered and unmistakably personal.

This 18th-century barn has been reimagined by Berkeley Hawkes with an easy respect for balance, natural materials and a strong sense of place. Drawing on the calm symmetry of Georgian architecture the interior balances rustic texture with refined detail. Raw beams meet finely panelled walls, reclaimed oak and honed marble lend warmth and permanence. Antique pieces and salvaged elements layer history into the space, creating a home of enduring depth, rooted in contrast, crafted with soul.

Similar to the last project I featured by McLean Interiors, this spec house in Dallas, Texas is also a wonderful mix of light and dark (with dark in the rooms that I loooove seeing dark – the dining room and lounge/media/bar/games room) and an overall warm modern approach that is timeless and full of cozy furnishings. I need a big furry/fleecy chair so damn bad. Builder: Bean Co Homes; Photos: Matti Gresham.
