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.

The redesign of the historic hide warehouse at Strandgade 104 in Copenhagen by David Thulstrup seamlessly blends heritage with contemporary luxury. This meticulous transformation reimagines the 218-year-old industrial structure into four exclusive apartments while preserving its architectural essence. Natural materials, including Dinesen wood planks, highlight the building’s character while expansive windows frame views of the canal and city, enhancing the connection between old and new. A central core integrates essential amenities without disrupting the open-plan layout. Featuring a penthouse, single-floor residences and shared wellness spaces, this project epitomizes refined, modern living within a historic framework.

Located in back country Darien, previous city-lifers relocated their family to the charming village in hopes for a peaceful homestead. Having no recent renovations within the last few decades, Becca Interiors worked to reinvent the home to not only update it to suit the needs of the family, but also cast new life into it. Collected, customized, and antique pieces were implemented throughout the outfit of this home making it a true labor of love. This nearly 8000 sq/ft home no longer lives as a home from the past, but is now reinvigorated leaving enough room for its new family to make countless fond memories.
This is what I call classic – classic neutral colours that are really beautiful and easy to work with, classic decor that would stand the test of time, classic all around vibes that make this livable and loveable.
