This 16th century country house in West Sussex is a wonderful example of going neutral and keeping things light and warm in a home that was probably very dark. All of the exposed beams and brick are gorgeous and add so much texture and a sense of pride of the home’s history. Designed by Rui Ribeiro.

In this case it’s a home of traditional Mallorcan architecture made of local sandstone, with the Serra de Tramontana mountains in the background.

A little slice of heaven in the Basque country. This old farm is now a stunning private residence that is as beautifully neutral as can be. Lots of wood used throughout that adds such a wonderful element of nature that exudes so much warmth. This is cabin style taken to a whole other level. Designed by Gilles et Boissier.
