It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to work on the weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Mille Headquarters by Anne McDonald Design.

“This La Cañada full house renovation received a breathtaking transformation. One step inside reveals an infusion of rich, warm tones with contemporary amenities that hold deep respect for the home’s mid century roots. A perfect space for a young modern family to grow and experience unforgettable moments together.”

“A meticulous renovation of a landmarked two-bedroom, two-bathroom Upper West Side townhouse, we were tasked with creating a feminine, cultivated, and imaginative oasis for a young, eclectic and creative client. We drew inspiration from a Parisian pied-à-terre, along with Ottoman architecture and Spanish design.”

It’s the week of my favourite designers and Frances Merrill of Reath Design is up there as one of my top 5, and I was excited to see a couple of newly completed projects from her so here is one of them. Such wonderful details in this home and lovely to see them maintained and showcased. Frances’ touches of some dark colours (and some unexpected shades here and there – proving you don’t have to use the same colours throughout for cohesion…how boring!) and some wallpapers add sooo much character. I particularly love the sweet little dining area off the kitchen. Photos: Laure Joliet. Styling: Mieke ten Have.

The clients envisioned a welcoming home where family, friends, and neighbours could easily gather. This vision influenced the design approach emphasizing preservation over expansion. The Edwardian exterior was celebrated and the interiors were reimagined to accommodate a growing family of five. The home’s charm was maintained while new elements, like soft hues and layered finishes, were seamlessly integrated. Light timber accents and an earthy palette create a relaxed atmosphere, focusing on enhancing garden connections and maximizing natural light. Elonera House by Melbourne-based Studio Doherty.
