The Atwater House by Design, Bitches has evolved with its family over 20 years. Once a 500 sq.ft. near-teardown it now features an office, pool house, living room, and bedroom with a green roof. The original structure was replaced with a kitchen/dining area and bedrooms for the children. Custom finishes include oak, walnut, concrete tiles, and steel skylights. Natural light, insulation, and strategic tree planting minimize the need for artificial lighting, heating and cooling.

The Drip-Dry house by Sydney-based architectural firm Marker embodies a philosophy of simplicity and togetherness. Designed for inter-generational living, it focuses on essential living experiences and nurturing relationships. Near the beach, the house features concrete floors and low-maintenance landscaping for easy upkeep. The double-height living space includes a versatile, budget-friendly commercial kitchen. The layout is efficient, with the main house consisting of two connected boxes: one for bedrooms and bathrooms, the other for communal living spaces. Decks on both sides provide all-day indoor/outdoor living, while an outbuilding accommodates guests or remote work.

This is pretty close to English-style perfection for me. I’d throw in a bit more colour and a bit more pattern but otherwise I really love everything these ladies do.





















Designer Cara Woodhouse and her family live in this fabulous modernist Long Island ranch and in her typical bold, graphic and step-outside-the-box way, she has created a whimsical space filled with circles and curves that really add warmth and a level of coziness. I would not have expected this vibe to work so well in this style of home but she really nailed it. I would have loved growing up in a house like this. So inspiring!

Surrey-based interior designers Pringle & Pringle completely reimagined this Victorian property, overcoming its unconventional layout to create a unique home. The floorplan was redesigned for practicality and aesthetics, featuring four separate entertaining spaces, ensuites for each bedroom and a central family kitchen. Matching limewashed walls, chevron flooring and Carrara marble fireplaces unite the reception rooms. Functional spaces were elevated with bespoke joinery and custom designs personalized each child’s bedroom.
