The transformation of Mosman House has created a bright, airy coastal residence. Initially focusing on structural improvements, the clients seized the chance to craft a home reflecting their lifestyle. Emphasizing beauty and functionality, Sydney-based studio Partridge Daniels redesigned the layout for better light and flow. A natural palette enhances the aesthetic. Notable features include a marble kitchen island, a scalloped fireplace, and a wool installation. Improved staircases, enlarged bedrooms, and a basement gym complete the transformation.

The remodel of a California Mid-Century home by Studio Meghan Eisenberg, originally designed and built by Meghan’s grandfather, Donald Park, in 1950, pays homage to its architectural heritage. Inspired by the original design details, the finish palette was playfully updated to revive the home with a warm sensibility. For furnishings, 60’s Ranch House decor was referenced, introducing traditional fabrics and classical silhouettes into the post and beam setting.

Cristina Espejo and Marta Goyanes of Espejo & Goyanes create beautiful and functional spaces. This Madrid house is a case in point. The light-filled double-height living room is sophisticated yet welcoming while the kitchen with its minimalist lines is warmed by ample flowing curtains and an upholstered dining banquette. Perhaps my favourite room (or rooms) is the connecting area between the main bedroom, dressing room and bathroom another fine example of ample curtains and minimalist space.

If you don’t need a pool house for typical needs like a place for people to change into swimsuits or to store pool equipment, why not convert it into the coolest little British pub? Between the pool and the “pub” I’m pretty sure you’re going to have a hard time convincing friends they can’t stay all night. Another wonderful project by Blanc Marine.

This 1920s Spanish Colonial home had lost its original charm after numerous renovations. Studio AF‘s goal was to restore its authentic character through a full interior and exterior renovation. While retaining the external shell, we replaced windows, doors, bathrooms, kitchen, and flooring. Earthy plastered walls now envelop the home in warmth and beauty, creating a cohesive flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
