Ember Studio’s renovation of this Soho loft creates a tranquil refuge amid the city’s bustle. Minimal architectural gestures, paired with warm oak wood, limewash and plaster finishes establish a serene yet welcoming interior. The design maximizes communal living while preserving retreat-like private spaces including a spa-inspired suite and nursery. Details such as arched reclaimed doors, custom sliding partitions and a transformable office-guest room highlight craftsmanship and flexibility. Vintage finds and contemporary pieces enrich the home’s layered, eclectic character.

Welcome to the wacky and absolutely beautiful home of artists of Philip and Charlotte Colbert created by Buchanan Studio and Chris Dyson Architects who concocted this masterpiece from five dilapidated brick terrace homes. There is so much space and so many surreal and creative things everywhere you look. Photos: Alicia Waite.

I declare that every Cotswolds residence needs a party barn! It makes complete sense if you have a barn on your property that needs some love. In this case it involves exposed stone walls, tons of storage, reclaimed wood, a massive 20 person dining table that can move out of the way to make room for a dance floor, a kitchen with bi-fold doors to close it off so the dinner mess can wait until morning, and lots of space for guests to sleep. I love this sooooo much! Designed by Dalrymple Studio. Photos: Dean Hearne.

This full gut renovation of a 2800 square foot existing loft apartment located in the heart of Soho offers a refuge of calm for the homeowners in contrast to the bustle of Soho just outside the front door. The design concept worked to achieve a tranquil respite through an encompassing interior that feels at once calm and cozy. A relatively minimal architectural expression achieves this serenity when paired with the lived-in and eclectic curation of furniture, lighting, and art. The warmth of white oak millwork, hand-finished limewash, and plaster wall treatments ensure the space feels approachable and unified. Vintage pieces were collected on trips to antique fairs, like Brimfield and Round Top and are paired with contemporary furniture and art, primarily from independent makers.
Designed by Stephanie Betesh of Ember Studio, this loft is exactly the respite I would want from the hustle and bustle of the crazy city outside those windows. It is incredibly serene, earthy and organic. Everything you need to relax when you walk in the door. Photos: David Mitchell.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to work on the weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Mille Headquarters by Anne McDonald Design.
