Cottage living in the country but make it elevated. This stunning home in Hailburton, Ontario is soooo beautiful and despite my love of colour, it is truly relaxing and easy on the eyes with all of the neutral tones and woods used throughout. As a getaway from the craziness of the city it is the perfect palette. So many wonderful textures too – stone walls in the living room and kitchen, raffia walls and seagrass pendants in the dining room, white oak walls and ceilings… Designed by Allison Willson.

Designer Heidi Caillier does it again with her layering of pattern and colour magic, in this East Hampton home that is an absolute vintage-vibing delight. If ever you thought there could be a case of too many patterns, or using too many different colours in a home, let Heidi school you on how wrong you are. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

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….
