A beautifully curated, carefully layered home with an eclectic mixing of styles from mid century to Asian to vintage. The result is open and light with a timeless appeal. Oh to be the owner of this Colonial Bungalow in Singapore’s Harbourfront by Davina Stanley of London-based Paper + White.

Today’s second lake house is not only off the grid it’s off the scale for stylish, unplugged living. This weekend getaway is all about natural materials and soft muted tones. If it was mine I’d be living here more than just on weekends. New Buffalo house by Chicago-based Elizabeth Krueger Design.

Certainly no beach shack this Hamptons weekender for a young city couple is part mid century, part transitional, a little whimsical and always with a subtle sophistication. I never understand why people actually leave these “weekenders” to return to the work-a-day rat race. I’d be investigating work from home options. Bridgehampton home by interior design studio Dumais.

A light and airy open plan was central to Framework‘s renovation of this one bedroom apartment on the fifth floor of the Schouwenhoek, an original apartment building by P.A. Warners, one of the founders of the Amsterdam School of modernist design. Gone are the small rooms branching off a central corridor while a rounded, concrete staircase beckons one up to a rooftop terrace and chillout room. Stylish, modern living while respecting the bones of this modernist building.

“I prefer to work with modern styles, to mix them and to use details from different eras and cultures. I believe that the «fusion» principle is the most natural way to create really “live” interior that is individually and personally oriented. In my projects I use technical innovations, advanced engineering, new materials, as well as elements of traditional crafts, vintage objects and elements of contemporary art.”

A restricted neutral colour palette and clean contemporary lines with the design spotlight thrown onto textural layering. Don’t you just want to curl up on that sofa and make yourself at home? Duna, an apartment in Kiev by Olga Fradina.
