Nestled amidst the sandy beaches and vast fields of Sweden’s largest island, Gotland, Sheep House stands as a testament to the harmonious blending of history and modernity. This traditional 18th-century limestone barn has undergone a remarkable transformation into a contemporary farmhouse on the shores of the Baltic Sea.

Over a span of two years, PALTA meticulously renovated the kitchen and primary bathroom, meticulously restored the original 18th-century salt cellar, constructed a charming farmhouse pantry, and designed the interiors of both primary and guest bedrooms, as well as a spacious lofted living area. Collaborating closely with local artisans, the property was authentically restored, showcasing exquisite Gotland limestone countertops, bespoke oak cabinetry crafted by local artisans, and a curated selection of antique pieces sourced from the island’s renowned thrift community. The result is a unique blend of old-world charm and modern comfort, seamlessly integrated into the island’s picturesque landscape.

In 2022, a vibrant transformation took place in the heart of Lyon’s Croix-Rousse district. A 65 square meter apartment underwent a complete renovation, orchestrated by the skilled hands of studio CRAIE CRAIE. The space, once outdated, was reborn with a burst of lively colours and playful volumes, a testament to the studio’s distinctive graphic identity. The renovation preserved the apartment’s unique features: a small, colourful kitchen flowed into the living area, adorned with a black-and-white checkered floor reminiscent of an American diner. The transformation journey extended to every corner, from a cleverly optimized kitchen with vibrant green accents to a bedroom seamlessly integrated with custom storage. The bathroom, adorned with shades of green and pink, retained its classic charm with a touch of contemporary flair. Throughout the home, thoughtful details like vintage handles and strategically placed mirrors added a touch of whimsy. This apartment, a testament to CRAIE CRAIE’s ingenuity, offers a living space and a visual feast, a fusion of past and present, brought to life through a vibrant kaleidoscope of colours and creative design.

This apartment in the historic Cobble Hill neighorhood belongs to partner, Erin Fearins and has been carefully renovated to include custom millwork and an expertly layered mix of vintage furniture pieces and carefully curated art and antiques.

After six intense years in Manhattan, the owners asked interior and furniture designer Bateaumagne to transform this former artist’s studio hidden in a leafy courtyard in Paris’ 6th arrondissement. They created a spacious loft-style living area on the ground floor, preserving the studio’s artistic essence with modernist walnut woodwork. Upstairs, vibrant mid-century colours define the rooms, while Winkelmans tiles adorn the bathrooms. Their eclectic choices, like the Cameleonda sofa and Verner Panton chairs, resulted in a harmonious and artistic family-friendly space.
