Just when I think my love for lofts has waned BAM! I’m smitten all over again. The space, the ceiling heights, light flooding in and the touch of industrial. In this case, the industrial remnants are juxtaposed with a neoclassical riff. Sophisticated with a touch of urban grit Soho Factory Loft by Jessica Schuster.

I have to admit that many kitchen underwhelm me. I often find they are too white, too modern, too cold and lack architectural details. This kitchen in The Beaches ‘hood of Toronto is none of those things. It is warm, inviting, unique and I am having heat palpitations over the graphic nature of that marble. This kitchen is a DREAM. Designed by Sarah Birnie, styled by Meg Crossley & Morgan Michener and photos by Lauren Miller.

“A complete interior and exterior remodel of a Paul Sterling Hoag home in Los Angeles, California. Restrained yet warm, we began calling this gem the ‘Zen Treehouse’ because of its treeline views and great vibes. The interior floor plan and finishes were reimagined to reflect a modern-day aesthetic while continuing to pay respect to Hoag’s iconic architecture.”

“Intoxicating and serene, the ’70s Rêve is a glam rock riff on the sultry vibes and breezy bliss of bohemian life. Restored and reconceived, this lush estate in Ross, California, exudes a balmy calm with a sexy swagger. Earthy and sumptuous, playfully plush, it teems with the effervescent cool of a YSL muse—both ageless and of the moment.”

If that’s the way Alexis Tompkins and Leann Conquer, the design duo behind San Francisco-based Chroma describe this house then anything I can add is just useless verbiage. Crazy perfect!

I love the homey vibes of this family apartment in Poland designed by Colombe. I will forever be smitten black and white floors, and the kitchen is a beauty and has me considering green if I ever get around to renovating my kitchen.
