“An expansive, seven-story Grade II listed historic property located in Central London. Spectacular original features have been allowed to shine in this updated elegant family home, while every detail from custom wallpaper to reupholstered vintage furniture was deeply considered to create a lasting and personal impression.”

It’s a house that most of us can only dream of. Seven floors in Nottinghill full of the bespoke and the beautiful, high quality materials and textiles. Family living luxe by Olivia Williams Studio.

This historic Spanish Colonial Revival home in Beverly Hills is a beauty, and landscape designer Scott Shrader created an exquisite outdoor space where the goal was keeping a sense of history whilst bringing it into the future. 17th century pilasters frame the driveway entry, custom iron gates, a 17th century stone water feature centered at the front door created a sort of courtyard. And he designated the pool as the hero with the addition of solid marble coping and a new spa that is glassed in on one side. Yessssss!!!! Photos: Lisa Romerein.

In a small part of the Empordà paradise is Mas Pla de Calabuig, a place of 5 hectares of peace, of exquisite decoration full of details and with a unique Mediterranean garden. Three houses and a studio, a total of 700m2 and with a particular style each but with the harmony of the whole. Let yourself be seduced by every corner you find. A unique Mediterranean vegetable space, with a central garden with a saltwater pool and a pergola covered in natural shade. Enjoy the garden with seasonal organic products.
