This home is a work of art. The juxtaposition of the ancient farmhouse structure with the modern, minimalist design of the interior is breathtaking. Designed by Barcelona-based design gallery and interior design advisory office Miquel Alzueta Projects.

“The project is conceived holistically as an ecologically sustainable product, coexisting coherently with its omnipresent natural environment. Using locally sourced materials, such as buried Javanese teak, bamboo, and stones from Sumba, was deemed a priority … Every detail is considered so carefully that even the organic vegetables grown in the garden are part of the overall conception.”

Elegant yet casual the house is a series of 5 pavilions filled with the owner’s collection of textiles.  For me, it’s the sinuous infinity pool and that view. I cannot wait until travel restrictions are lifted and we can travel again as the estate is available to rent. Hartland by Bali-based Studio Jencquel.

I absolutely adore this barn conversion, another project by Archer & Buchanan Architecture. The complete renovation of a late 19th century barn was part of a comprehensive property plan encompassing 20 acres formerly owned by Main Line architect Walter Durham (1896-1976). The structure was restored with recycled barn materials, insulated and resided, maintaining the feeling of a barn on the interior. The finished work includes the great room, kitchen, study and bath on the main level and screened porch, play area and wine cellar on the lower level.

I will forever be fascinated by the patina and imperfection of an older home. I spotted this raw, rustic beauty on the website Herz und Blut and immediately fell in love. It is the Mecklenburg-West Pomeranian German home of Susann Probst & Yannic Schon, food stylists and photographers. It is quite minimalist which draws your attention to the beautiful structure (built in 1948). (Photos: Jules Villbrandt)

Alblanc is a floral design studio (and official distributor of the Frama brand in Spain) whose atelier is located in the heart of Poblenou, a neighborhood of Barcelona with an industrial history that currently houses a large part of the city’s creative scene. The space was formerly a warehouse for batteries and light bulbs. The renovation was inspired by Catalan and Mediterranean farmhouses. I spotted this on Thisispaper and had to share this lovely space. (Photos from Thisispaper and alblanc website)
