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. Ottolenghi test kitchen by Studiomama. Hang on I’m lying. You’d have to drag me out of the Ottolenghi test kitchen not into it!

Soaring through the interiors of a Victorian-era terrace in London this contemporary staircase is not only a means to move from floor to floor but an allegory for moving from the historical bones of the building to its new modern incarnation. London Apartment by Quincoces-Dragò & Partners.

“Urban and sophisticated, this loft space finds a balance between its gritty, industrial roots and the modern, cultured, aesthetic of its owners. Vintage furnishings, sensual photography and rich textiles provide interest and warmth to the guest room.”

When a house that has been a hodgepodge of styles and rooms for many years meets a designer like David Lucido magic happens. Things were rationalised, removed, replaced but always with a respect for the buildings original features. The result is a calm oasis in the hustle of LA, sophisticated yet relaxed.

Interior designer Alexandra Boussagol designed this Paris pied-à-terre located in a hôtel particulier for her art collector client and I love the warmth and dramatic elements. To make this apartment contemporary, the architect Alexandra BOUSSAGOL evolved around three axes: the curve, the use of  sophisticated wood and noble stones – to design custom furniture and create certain coverings –, and the color – worked from ad hoc manner, chosen according to its intensity in order to counterbalance the whiteness of the walls. The monumental doors, hand-crafted from wenge-tinted wood, welcome visitors into a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. The original oak banister retains its charm, while the marquetry parquet flooring, arranged in a reflective rosette, captures and diffuses the light, illuminating every corner with subtle elegance.
