The designer calls the project Printemps or Spring. I call it the jewel box and hidden within is such a precious treasure for Paris’ 17th arrondissement, a lush almost tropical garden. By Laurence Simoncini Décoration.

“The project reflects and celebrates the current mood of formality and grandeur, authenticity and age in the face of social media fame and laidback luxury fatigue, setting a new standard for interior decoration and legacy architecture.”

Legacy architecture. I really like that idea. Mission Statement by Sydney-based Studio Kate.

There is nothing cookie cutter or half baked about this house by Madrid-based interior design studio Marta de la Rica. It’s about a celebration of life, of vintage pieces and modern touches, theatre and innovation.

Relaxed and understated with a colour palette as soft as the sands that surround it. A nod to Scandinavian mid century classics but as unpretensious as a worn wooden table. A complete renovation of a Danish summer house that allows for modern living but reconnects the home with its past. DM Beach House in North Zealand, Denmark by London-based Pernille Lind Studio.

“We were invited to transform a classic prewar apartment into a stylish but unfussy family home. The interior palette varies as dark smaller spaces flow into progressively lighter larger rooms. This subtle transition of color makes the larger rooms, although low ceilinged, feel even more spacious and brighter. The use of velvety warm grays and ivory colors in the space is accentuated by an ensemble of antiques, mid-century modern and contemporary pieces. The clients’ art collection and family heirlooms bring depth and history to the eclectic mix.”

I’m not sure what I love more about this renovation, the subtle play of light and shadow across the apartment or the easy going almost lived in look? I guess it doesn’t matter because it’s the sort of home I’d move into in a heartbeat. Greenwich Village Apartment by Hendricks Churchill.
