I had to share another project by CJH Studio because as much as I love some colour and pattern and stuff, this is absolutely beautiful with the exact opposite vibes. This one is a bit less modern than the last project I shared, with a bit more warmth and some added old world charm. I will admit that for more years that I can even remember, I have wanted a big squishy sofa draped in an oversized linen sheet. My dream! Photos: Jimmy Logan.

Atelier Davis, led by Jessica Davis, is a full-service design studio known for blending original charm with modern ease. In this 1980s New Hampshire lakehouse, the team embraced the home’s nostalgic character, especially its knotty pine walls, while gently updating the space. With fresh colors, relaxed furnishings and a light touch the design strikes a balance between rustic warmth and contemporary comfort.

This renovated farmhouse guesthouse by Hoedemaker Pfeiffer blends historic charm with playful sophistication. Drawing from European farmhouse traditions, the design incorporates beadboard, paneling and unlacquered brass hardware that will patina with time. Interiors feature king-size bedrooms with upscale amenities and ample storage while the living room’s colourful, upholstered furniture adds warmth and whimsy. A timeless kitchen pairs dark soapstone with crisp white cabinetry. Vintage furnishings and fresh finishes transform the space with minimal intervention and enduring character.

This 1920s John Byers-designed home in L.A.’s Pacific Palisades was sensitively reimagined by Scott Formby, preserving its architectural character while refreshing the interiors with colour, texture and a refined mix of old and new pieces. Without major structural changes the home was transformed into a highly personal, soulful space. As the clients’ needs evolved, Formby continued to refine the design, creating a layered, expressive environment that reflects how the family now lives within the historic framework.
