Aldridge & Supple

Posted on Tue, 8 Apr 2025 by KiM

Give me all the old-world, centuries-old, weathered interiors. Sandstone and limewashed walls, fireplaces with wood-fired stoves, reclaimed wood, antique furniture…all in pretty earthy neutral shades of calm. I could not love these spaces more, designed by Notting Hill based studio Aldridge & Supple. Photos: Martin Morrell.

This Grade II listed Italianate Grecian villa near Regent’s Park, built circa 1830, was Katie Harbison Design’s first heritage renovation. The project balanced preservation with modernisation, restoring original features like the staircase and replicating period mouldings and cornices. Incongruous modern elements were replaced with era-appropriate fixtures. A blend of vintage and bespoke pieces created a timeless, layered interior—honouring the home’s history while adapting it to a young family’s contemporary lifestyle.

Relogged

Posted on Mon, 7 Apr 2025 by midcenturyjo

Relogged by Ukrainian architectural and interior design firm balbek bureau is a private home located on a riverside green zone, originally built as a log cabin and reimagined to reflect the client’s contemporary lifestyle. The redesign reinterprets classic log house aesthetics with minimalist geometry, concrete floors, and a moody yet warm palette. Inspired by Rick Owens’ Concordia apartment, the interior is grungy and utilitarian, softened by custom furniture and vintage pieces. Minimal intervention preserved the log structure, while open layouts, dark-stained wood, and metal elements give the home a bold, modern edge rooted in comfort, creativity, and deep collaboration with the client.

A ski chalet in Méribel, France

Posted on Fri, 4 Apr 2025 by KiM

The renovation and extension of this decades-old ski chalet required full interior architectural design and detailing, space planning, and interior decoration. The needs of a young family and their guests, combined with the functionality essential to a ski chalet, underpin the design concept – celebrating nature through the choice of materials and honouring culture through bespoke craftsmanship.
This chalet is so very Swiss Alps but with some unique touches by the defying-all-trends designer Hubert Zandberg. I love that every one of his projects is so full of pattern and texture and is as inviting as can be. And not a single trend to be found! Photos: Giulio Ghirardi.

Designer Joris Van Apers calls this 17th century villa in a castle in Lucca, Italy, “Tuscany at its best”. Oh yes honey this ABSOLUTELY IS. I could stare at these photos for hours. The colours, the textures and the views outdoors are spectacular. Photos: Michael Paul.
