Bellamy & Single

Posted on Fri, 26 Jul 2024 by KiM

Bellamy & Single (Stina Ekblad Bellamy & Tori Single) is an interior design partnership based on the Essex/Suffolk border, creating refined English homes with individuality and personality. We believe that beautiful interiors can enhance and transform the way we live. That is why we are passionate about creating unique yet timeless and relevant interiors to suit each client. Our philosophy is to create magical rooms that are full of life and beauty to nourish the soul. Drawing on our experience and passion for sourcing antiques and one-off pieces from across Europe,  and by editing and re-using existing furniture where appropriate, we can help you create a home that is not only timeless and harmonious but also authentic.
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.

A Victorian era home reimagined

Posted on Thu, 25 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

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.

Dolores Heights Modern

Posted on Fri, 19 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

“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.”

An eclectic home makeover

Posted on Wed, 3 Jul 2024 by midcenturyjo

“Architecturally full of character and quirk, this home came with its creative challenges! We chose to paint the concrete floors, brick accents, and salvaged material expressed throughout the home almost all the same color to invoke a visual cohesiveness – and added only a touch of tonal blue and a little bit of wallpaper in two of the spaces. We leaned into the eclectic feel of the home by mixing genres and styles of antiques throughout each room. While much of the furnishings lean neutral, the art and curiosity collections take center stage with their boldness.”

This 200-acre property is located among the rolling hills and woodland forests of New York’s Dutchess County. The original farmhouse was built in 1758 with a service addition built in 1910. We restored the original heart pine flooring to expose its patina. We also repaired plaster, restored windows, and replicated existing millwork for consistency during alterations. When we exposed the beams in the library, we replicated the original basecoat plaster. We used reclaimed Delft tile in the kitchen, and a wallpaper mural in the dining room; both choices speak to the history of the property. Each of the six bedrooms was furnished to suit the personalities of the intended occupants. ven the basement was captured in the renovation to include a mudroom, pantry, and additional service areas. Further isolated from the more finished spaces of the basement is the much-cherished Negroni Room.
