When you have views of the gorgeous coast of Salcombe, Devon it seems logical to go with a seaside vibe in this Victorian family cottage. Lots of white, blue, red and yellow and some really fun stripes, which I am always a fan of, makes this home really inviting and playful and brings the outdoors in. Designer Sarah Southwell really hit the nail on the head here. Photos: Jonathan Bond.

This handsome London townhouse has been fully redesigned by Emma Ainscough to create a layered, characterful home tailored to the needs of a young family. Original architectural details were carefully restored, including period joinery and decorative features in the entrance hall. A refined yet playful palette runs throughout, with bold colour accents, antique lighting and textured finishes adding softness and personality. The children’s spaces are whimsical and adaptable, while the primary suite offers calm and balance. Across all floors, thoughtful layouts, clever storage and bespoke furnishings bring together comfort, practicality and a sense of quiet charm.

This spacious Louisiana lake house by TIEK BYDAY was designed as a welcoming haven for an extended family, comfortably sleeping 32 across ten bedrooms and nine bathrooms. Rooted in traditional Acadian architecture, the home features generous communal areas, a large kitchen and a refined bar, all oriented toward lake-view porches for easy indoor-outdoor living. Thoughtfully layered with cozy nooks, alcove beds and deep seating, the design balances grandeur with warmth, making it perfect for gathering, relaxing and entertaining.

For Jen Cherian of Annarya Design it is all about the details. A kitchen that had great bones so only a rework was done – the different stones with painted and dark wood cabinetry makes this look so classic and timeless. A little corner retreat in the bedroom to read a book with a cup of tea. The tiniest of powder rooms with large-scale floral wallpaper and a custom marble sink. Archways in bathrooms – in one case with a different colour tile on the outside wall. One with diagonally laid checkered marble floor (a fav of mine). A retro vibing laundry room with black and white checkered tile floor. Love every bit of each of these spaces.

Molly Kidd Studio creates homes that are both luxurious and livable, grounded in creativity and everyday comfort. Their Bay Area project is a refined new build that showcases natural materials, layered textiles and curated vintage furnishings. Thoughtful design shines in every detail, from a custom wine cabinet to a fully integrated kitchen, breakfast nook, pantry, mudroom and laundry. Each space feels personal and inviting, reflecting a story told through craftsmanship, materiality and timeless design.
