Finding beauty in the imperfect

Posted on Wed, 23 Jun 2021 by midcenturyjo

Sophie Rowell of Côte de Folk Interiors takes a home’s imperfections and makes them shine. No no not in a bad way, in a magical perfectly imperfect way. It’s a celebration and elevation of everyday beauty, of the authentic and individual. This is her own home. Pieces change in and out as she sources more treasure or shares her finds with others. I could be totally happy sitting in that dining room in whatever incarnation. Just need a pot of tea and a friend come to share it with me.

Cerused contemporary

Yes it’s pracitical and beautiful but this contemporary house is taken to the next level by the bespoke joinery. Attention to detail and then just a little bit more. I’m swooning over the cerused oak featured throughout. House M by Cassandra Walker Design.

Modern luxury in Pacific Palisades

From the pared-back sophistication of the formal living spaces to the cosy family areas, this home by West Hollywood based Studio Life/Style is beautifully curated with a restrained colour palette and a contemporary consideration of modern luxury. Simply in love with the living and dining areas connected through a collonade of arches.

“The relationship between the historic building and the new extension is characterised with a change of materiality; from light timbers and translucent glass screens to black terrazzo and steel framed doors to the terrace. The interiors responded to the iconic nature of the building with elegant details that will endure over time.”

“Using organic, raw materials and artistic, natural plays on design, juxtaposed with clean and simple palettes, April is redefining Southern design with her fresh yet deeply grounded style.”

Being grown-up doesn’t just mean sophisticated and urbane interiors. The home of your dreams can include a ye-ha cowboy fringe leather ottoman at the end of your bed and a swing in the family room.  “Twig & Biscuit” by Nashville-based April Tomlin Interiors.
