“Our approach was to design each interior space with crisp, yet sparing architectural embellishments, punctuated by layers of unexpected surface materials and a museum-quality art collection … We wanted it to feel ornate, but also feel light and classical, with a hyper-modern edge.”

Designer Dylan Farrell named the project Georgian Modern. I call it a fabulous mix of different styles and eras with a museum-quality art collection.

White on white with natural elements, Mediterranean accents, the blue of the sky and sea, treasures from travels. It all comes together in the coastal holiday home of interior designer Carlos Serra of Mercader de Indias. Light, bright and cool.

I have had it with the misery winter brings. I am craving the outdoors, a landscape of green rather than white, and feeling the sunshine on my skin. I will instead take all the online outdoor inspiration I can get since there is no escaping it this year. And today it’s in form of some wonderful gardens from the portfolio of London based landscape designer Emily Erlam.

A lush sanctuary in the inner city, the perfect place to get away from it all … without leaving home. And if fabulous al fresco gatherings with family and friends are more your thing? No worries. Your private oasis is party central. Balmain garden by Sydney-based Adam Robinson Design.

Pardon me. I’m having a little daydream. The vaccines have brought Corona under control and we can travel again. I’ve packed my bag and hopped a plane to France. I’m in Cap Ferret and this sweet little beach shack is mine. Sigh. What a lovely, lovely daydream. Renovation of a holiday house by L’Atelier Delphine Carrère.
