A Chelsea pied-à-terre

Posted on Wed, 4 Jun 2025 by midcenturyjo

This Chelsea High Line apartment by Lucy Harris offers a calm, refined escape above the bustle of the city. Designed as a restful pied-à-terre, the space features a relaxed, open-plan layout enriched with warm tones, curved forms, and soft textures. Lucy and her team introduced custom furnishings and layered botanical wallcoverings to create depth and personality. Defined zones for living, working, and entertaining lend the home a sense of intimacy, sophistication, and effortless comfort.

I love the blend of traditional and contemporary styles in this beautiful Highlands fishing lodge designed by London-based Harriet Sale. Her layered aesthetic incorporates textures, patterns, and pieces with provenance, and really warm and liveable colours that add such a welcoming feel. A lodge with impeccable style.

A Tuscan retreat reimagined

Posted on Mon, 2 Jun 2025 by midcenturyjo

Nicola Harding & Co. reimagined this historic 1800s Tuscan villa—originally a farmhouse—for modern family living. The four-bedroom main house became a family haven, with a private suite for the couple featuring its own living room. Two outbuildings were transformed into guest cottages, and a new pool house was added in the olive grove. Inspired by English design, craftsmanship, and the local landscape, the interiors reflect warmth, story, and a strong sense of place.

Fiona Duke Interiors transformed this Edwardian family home in Essex through a complete reconfiguration and extension of both floors. The design blends modern and vintage elements to create an elegant yet relaxed aesthetic that feels effortless. With a focus on authenticity and livability, the space was fully modernised and thoughtfully planned throughout, reflecting the studio’s belief that great interior design can positively impact how people feel in their homes.

Studio Ashby is renowned for creating soulful interiors with timeless elegance and an eclectic spirit. At Villa Robert Graves, part of Belmond Hotels’ La Residencia in Mallorca, the studio led a sensitive renovation celebrating local heritage. Working with artisans, they incorporated Mallorcan linens, ceramics, and antique pieces. Inspired by the Tramuntana mountains, the interiors blend natural materials, vibrant patterns, and curated art to craft an immersive, characterful indoor-outdoor living experience.
