It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. MESHKI’s Sydney headquarters by Those Architects.

This beautiful townhouse in Monnickendam, The Netherlands was designed by DAB Studio. Taking advantage of tall ceiling heights and some original historic elements, this home was transformed into a really unique, modern and minimal oasis. The kitchen is a stunner with all rounded corners creating a fluid space, and flows with the rounded glass and wood partition from the staircase. It’s amazing how much warmer and organic a space can feel with curves rather than sharp edges. The rounded shape of the kitchen backsplash accentuates all of the curves and helps delineate the kitchen. All of these creative elements I’m taking note of. Photos: Daniëlle Siobhán.

The client’s brief was to design a minimalist, airy yet cozy home inspired by the relaxed Hamptons beach style. The vision evokes sunbleached days, with white linen curtains swaying in the breeze, offering glimpses of flowering wild roquette. Chalky walls and warm-toned joinery contrast against the white timber-lined ceiling and white-washed floorboards. Golden-veined marble accents the kitchen and bathroom, while French doors with ruched linen curtains soften the light, creating a serene atmosphere for restful days and peaceful nights.

I often crave design that is simple, timeless, bordering on minimal, warm, neutral because sometimes it gets to be too much. Too overdone. Too trendy. Often not that functional. This home in Montréal is like a breath of fresh air. It’s like a big hug from a granny who smells of garlic and Nivea cream. Designed by Atelier St-Arno. Photos: Maxime Desbiens.

As much as I love some bold colour I am also a huge fan of neutrals and earthy shades. The tone of the wood floors and beams, brown sofas, linen window coverings, and that green kitchen is divine! (It’s Benjamin Moore’s Mossy Oak). Shout out also to the green and the pretty wallpaper in the powder room. This home really makes you feel like you’re in the middle of the forest. I’d just add some more plants/foliage. Designed by Atelier St-Arno. Photos: Phil Bernard.
