This 1880s rowhouse renovation by Toronto-based Tommy Smythe and Colin Baird of Tom Design Collective celebrates fearless design and bold colours. A red front door opens to a vestibule with ikat grass cloth, turquoise hooks, and graphic tiles. Vibrant palettes unfold—moody blues and magenta in the living room, pink and green in the kitchen, and a crimson dining room with striking moldings and opulent accents.

“A former bedsit, completely overhauled to function as a five bedroom family home across three floors. The client’s brief was ‘relaxed, playful, timeless and colourful’ which could grow as they grew as a family. Working closely with the client, Architect Studio McLeod, and lighting Designer Studio Stileman, we formed a totally new layout which incorporated every functional requirement but with a playful twist.”

Fabulous use of colour, pattern and texture. Layered with antiques and beautiful textiles. A fun, fresh and stylish family home by Natasha Quick.

Vibrant penthouse balancing the iconic with the niche. With a simple brief of ‘as little white as possible‘, we had the pleasure of designing and curating the interiors of a newly built penthouse in a residential building in Kreuzberg. We accompanied the clients when they bought the property during the shell construction phase (right before COVID hit). The colours where consciously used to functionally define the open plan space – the kitchen is bright yellow, the dining area is kept in shades of red and the living room is drenched in green. A more atmospheric, nuanced design was chosen for the private area of the apartment, whereas all corners are carefully curated for a vibrant, lived-in composition. The goal was to create a rhythm of elements that pull interest and spark conversations, while being totally useful and not too precious. Each design decision in this project was taken with a full commitment – there are no half-measures here. And that adds to the joy, thinking of the final effect.
Such fun use of colours here, and I will always be smitten with bright yellow kitchens. That island of yellow tile is such a happy statement. This whole apartment is a statement, with such a wonderful energy. Designed by Studio Bosko.

Designer Heidi Caillier does it again with her layering of pattern and colour magic, in this East Hampton home that is an absolute vintage-vibing delight. If ever you thought there could be a case of too many patterns, or using too many different colours in a home, let Heidi school you on how wrong you are. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

This 1869 Victorian home in Cambridge, Massachusetts is an absolute beauty inside and out brimming with original details that luckily the homeowners and Reath Design embraced. (The older I get and the more I hear about homes this beautiful being demolished or stripped of all their character, the more I appreciate people who aim to preserve the original). This is so whimsical and heartwarming, and even though I am not a fan of blue, the gorgeous muddy red of the dining room (Book Room Red by Farrow & Ball) and that sweet willow wallpaper are everything.
