This classic turn-of-the-century apartment is undeniably grand. However, for our client’s young family, it also needed to feel comfortably relaxed as well as playfully evocative. Tasked with designing both for intimate family moments as well entertaining friends, an overlay of custom-designed cabinetry and furniture adds character and purpose to each space. A textured glass doorway in the foyer, distorts the blue and brass coat cupboards of the mud room beyond. Additional display shelving and lighting celebrates the client’s art collection. In the kitchen, a bespoke bistro table & banquette seating invites cosy family meals while the living room’s hidden dry bar is an entertainer’s delight. When merging classic and contemporary, respecting the elegance of the existing architecture is essential. Strong injections of colour and layers balance the scale of each room, creating a light and liveable home that is truly bespoke.
Light and liveable this absolutely is! I tend to prefer less white than is used in this apartment but it really works here to keep it airy and bright and appear larger. And I must point out how fun that map fabric covered sofa is. By Inuti Design. Photos: Fanny Radvik; Styling: Linda Ring.

Project Alton House. Earthy, moody, and inviting—our concept for this home was inspired by the property’s private forest setting, with an aesthetic that balances the simplicity of natural materials with English-inspired sophistication. In both the exterior and interior, we opted for rich neutrals and enduring style—with plenty of opportunities inside for our client, a ceramicist, to showcase her work.
This house is beautiful. So classic and timeless with colours and finishes that are not trendy and could last for years. By TIffany Leigh Design; Photos: Patrick Biller; Styling: Me&Mo; Build: Kingsgate Construction

I’m just going to leave this here, so you can dream about having the most epic kitchen and boot/flower room like these designed by Barlow & Barlow. Sooo much space, that curved window makes it the prettiest place to wash dishes, a fabulous island to congregate around, and OH MY the plants and flowers I would be arranging and growing in that boot & flower room with all that shelving….

Our intention was to evoke something very authentic to our empty-nester clients, regardless of what was happening in the design world. Working with the contractors and the architect from the ground up, we ensured that the property carried the simple English cottage-style architecture and lofty, 12-foot ceilings found in historic homes in Utah.
This home designed by W Design Collective is everything I love. Historic in architecture (even if it is a new build), all warm colours and mostly in soothing neutrals, and just all around so classic it will absolutely stand the test of time. Photos: Malissa Mabey.

A newly constructed home in Iowa but made to look like it holds some history. And like it’s actually located in the Cotswolds. So easy on the eyes, and some dark drama where it easily works (like utility type rooms and office). Soft and serene, cozy and casual. Designed by Oho Interiors. Photos: Judith Marilyn.
