A formerly Brooklyn-based family, now settled in San Francisco, embarked on a comprehensive renovation and addition of their 1913 Edwardian-style cottage in Glen Park. The family aimed to infuse East Coast character into the design, boldly selecting colorful cabinetry and a bouquet of mixed patterns. Landed prioritized retaining the nostalgic and historic integrity of the century-old home by designing custom carpentry, drawing from Federal and colonial-style profiles, featured prominently with a suite of extensive millwork. Glass elements in doors, transoms, and side lites were strategically introduced to optimize daylight in the hillside abode. Nooks and niches were injected throughout the space to inspire impromptu workspaces and cozy areas to sit by a window and indulge in avid reading habits.
This home is now brimming with exuberance and the colours used are so impactful. Such a spirited vibe for a family to create memories in. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

This project by Liddicoat & Goldhill involved the renovation of a Grade II listed 18th-century mill in Wiltshire, previously converted into a 3,133 sqft home. Built into a hillside, the four-storey structure was extended with a double-height orangery and terrace to connect the elevated living areas with the garden below. An inverted floor plan placed open-plan living spaces on the bright upper levels, while bedrooms occupy the more secluded lower floors. A carbon steel and oak helical staircase was inserted through the full height of the building, uniting the spaces while respecting the original industrial fabric. The design carefully balances conservation with the introduction of modern Scandinavian interiors. Photos: Michael Sinclair & Will Scott.

In the coastal town of Caldes d’Estrach, John Brown Projects designed Armonia, a serene retreat that captures the essence of Mediterranean living. Owned by a Catalan family now based in Australia, the beach house offers an escape from southern winters into long Spanish summers. Modern comforts are balanced with traditional character, creating an elegant, deeply personal home. Within the house time slows, inviting relaxation, connection and the enduring rhythm of coastal life rooted in heritage and memory.

Steps from the Palais Royal, the Fontaine Molière apartment by Studio Ebur unfolds in a graceful U-shaped plan where rooms slip easily one into the next. The grandeur of the 17th and 18th centuries lingers in lofty ceilings and tall windows, enriched by Versailles parquet and Burgundy stone. Revived beams, intricate woodwork and a spirited play of marbles and natural materials infuse the interiors with warmth, elegance and a distinctly Parisian timelessness.
