Imagine a Parisian apartment blending old-world charm with chic 60s design and modern comforts, transformed by Ola Jachymiak Studio in Paris’s 9th arrondissement. Preserving features like parquet floors and tall wooden doors, Ola’s team enhanced the space with contemporary elements. Restored floors and doors maintain historical essence, while art adds depth. Retro touches like a black-and-white mosaic and bespoke furniture complete the design.

A truly extraordinary remnant of America’s ‘Gilded Age’, this seaside mansion was built in 1912, extensively rebuilt in 1915 by Bigelow & Wadsworth Architects, and had fallen into disrepair by the time our clients bought it in 2015. The ambitious refurbishment was led by the New York-based Peter Pennoyer Architects, with whom Max Rollitt and the team worked collaboratively to restore the historic interiors and myriad original features, including panelling, fire surrounds and light fittings. Architectural elements completed, Max and the team set about creating rooms that carefully balanced the theatricality of the house with an inviting sense of comfort.
WOW this home is SPECTACULAR! The details are of the caliber of what you would find in a European château. The woodwork and carvings are blowing my mind, and I absolutely adore the kitchen. Also, it has a flower room. I’m dying. (Most photos by Simon Upton)
































“A family with two young children found their dream home in Dolores Heights. While it was renovated not too long ago, it required additional work on the interiors to improve functionality and have the design ‘feel like them’. We updated finishes and lighting, created new millwork moments for storage and rethought the space planning of the main floor to accommodate their needs as a family.”

The transformation of Mosman House has created a bright, airy coastal residence. Initially focusing on structural improvements, the clients seized the chance to craft a home reflecting their lifestyle. Emphasizing beauty and functionality, Sydney-based studio Partridge Daniels redesigned the layout for better light and flow. A natural palette enhances the aesthetic. Notable features include a marble kitchen island, a scalloped fireplace, and a wool installation. Improved staircases, enlarged bedrooms, and a basement gym complete the transformation.

“Constructed in limestone rubble of a simple two-cell layout, the structure was carefully reworked by the owners Charlotte Boyens and Adam Scott, founders of the architecture practice, FreeState. With staggering sensitivity to the style and use of historic features, the house maintains references to original orientations around the font, altar, and windows.”
Another church conversion, another special home. This Grade II-listed church (first mentioned in 1291) on the mid Pembrokeshire coastline has been carefully converted into a sympathetic seaside house. For sale via Inigo.
