I adore this home in Warsaw, Poland designed by Colombe Studio. The fun, vibrant colours and the curvy trim detail repeated throughout – that big glorious mirror, doors, kitchen cabinetry and doorways. The result is unique and whimsical. (Photos: Depasquale+Maffini)










“A small but perfectly formed London townhouse filled to the brim with bold colour, texture and warmth. A playful, inspirational and happy home for a lovely, young family.”
If you ever needed cheering up on a grey old day then this is the house that will bring a smile to your face. Liveable yet dramatic spaces, bold colour and the marriage of different eras and styles. Chelsea by Studio Duggan.


















“Our clients wanted to bring part of their origins to Madrid. Plus, they are avid travellers—she is Mexican and he Galician—so they yearned to bring a family influence to their new home. This project is the outcome of a quest to find colour in Madrid, a characteristic marked by the owners’ journeys and origins. We focused on vivid colours: bright yellows, greens, blues and reds, paired with materials like tiles, ceramics and fine wood. They are all cool materials in bright colours brought from distant, exotic locales. White tile combines with blue, red or yellow in different areas and is finished by edging to frame the different zones.”
The hero of this design is tile, colourful, handmade, glorious tile simply but cleverly laid. It’s a celebration of a simple material elevated by clever design. Conde Duque by S+DLH (Sierra Delahiguera).

















Not my usual Working on a Saturday, not the usual commercial building. Today it’s all about playing sport on a Saturday. Cricket in fact.
“A joyous little folly dedicated to the game and all its absurdity. The P.W.C.C exterior is distinctive – a chiselled roof, rigorous battening and weatherboards all hark back to the heroic kiwi sports pavilions of the past.”
Point Wells Cricket Club by Auckland-based Pac Studio.










This Paris apartment was designed with travel in mind. The inspiration were hotel rooms, luxury train carriages, with a certain degree of luxury and elegance. Shades of red and green were used throughout – not typically a palette I’m drawn to but designer Hugo Toro worked magic here and I adore it. (Photos: Leny Gueta)
