From the maximalism of my previous house to this simple addition and alteration by Sydney-based architect Rachel Hudson. Light. airy and modern with a nod to old beach shacks it may be simple but it’s also stylish and very liveable.

Terrazzo and Togo what more could you want? A fabulous contemporary addition to a California Bungalow in Melbourne’s inner city suburbs is the icing on the cake. Brunswick West House by architecture and interior design firm Taylor Knights.










It’s a little slice of heaven. A NYC loft with fabulous bones and an interior by design firm Sissy + Marley. Light floods in through arched windows while oak floors and exposed beams enhance the industrial feel. One moment it’s dramatic, the next serene but always a chic, always inspiring, family home. If luxury loft living in the Big Apple has been a dream of yours I suggest you move towards the light.































It’s warm, casual and super stylish. It’s all you’d expect from a vacation home … hang on it’s more than you’d expect from a vacation home. A mix of high end and the found, family memories, a soft desert palette and the texture, all that glorious layering of texture. Lockwood Avenue in Old Greenwich, Connecticut by BHDM.

Just down the road from the last house is this little white cottage built in 1847 but now a sophisticated home for modern living. Perhaps not as grand as the last house but a little more to my liking. Less housework anyway 🙂 Link here while it lasts.
