This gorgeous home on 130 acres is located in Millbrook, in the Hudson Valley. Designed by Cicognani Kalla Architect it is country living at its finest. The great room has two 18th century stone fireplaces, limestone tile floors, and custom French doors. The kitchen opens right up onto fabulous gardens and a stone terrace. It has a heated greenhouse, wine cellar, chicken coop, and outbuildings include caretaker’s home and office. I also found that in December of last year it was for sale for $13.1M. What a dream!

Another must share from Heidi Caillier‘s recently completed projects is this beautiful home in Warwick, NY. There’s something about low ceilings that make a home feel so enveloping and warm. This is a bit more traditional than the last but the architecture definitely calls for that. Love the quirky touches like a high gloss red library and lots of elements of the outdoors inside which also seems appropriate given the setting. Photos: Haris Kenjar. Styling: Mieke ten Have.

I had to share another new project by Sean Anderson, one that is a bit more sophisticated than his typical spaces but when you’re working with an expansive Tribeca apartment in New York I think it goes without saying that there’s an expectation to spice it up and make it classy. Contemporary but make it Sean Anderson moody. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

Studio Borges reimagined an 1854 Gothic Revival residence blending the client’s whimsical style with beloved family heirlooms. The renovation infused colour, personality and charm into every corner, creating a vibrant home that perfectly reflects the young family’s interests. The design seamlessly combines modern custom furnishings, lighting and art with antique elements including new library built-ins for an extensive literary collection.

I love a sneak peek into a designer’s personal space. It’s like peering into their design zeitgeist. Thomas Geerlings of Dutch interior architecture and design firm Framework has created a home that is carefully curated with treasures and memories. With its sense of individual style and some amazing furniture pieces colour plays a huge part in the joy these family spaces bring.
