Give me all the old-world, centuries-old, weathered interiors. Sandstone and limewashed walls, fireplaces with wood-fired stoves, reclaimed wood, antique furniture…all in pretty earthy neutral shades of calm. I could not love these spaces more, designed by Notting Hill based studio Aldridge & Supple. Photos: Martin Morrell.

This Grade II listed Italianate Grecian villa near Regent’s Park, built circa 1830, was Katie Harbison Design’s first heritage renovation. The project balanced preservation with modernisation, restoring original features like the staircase and replicating period mouldings and cornices. Incongruous modern elements were replaced with era-appropriate fixtures. A blend of vintage and bespoke pieces created a timeless, layered interior—honouring the home’s history while adapting it to a young family’s contemporary lifestyle.

Studio Louis Morgan crafts immersive spaces with a strong narrative, blending architecture, photography, and cinema. Seamlessly blending Haussmannian elegance with contemporary functionality, he redesigned these spaces for effortless flow and intuitive movement, achieving a perfect harmony between classic and modern elements.

Designed by J.Kidman Architects with interiors by Golden and Studio Tali Roth, this Melbourne home is a quiet yet powerful expression of art and spatial refinement. Rooted in Belgian minimalism, an elemental colour story and tactile layering create a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere. Sculptural furniture, curated artworks and striking materiality shape a living experience akin to encountering a great piece of art. A reimagined spatial plan prioritizes northern light with interconnected volumes framing outdoor spaces. The result is a residence that transcends trends, evoking timelessness, contemplation and an intimate dialogue between form, texture and function.

There I said it. Actually, knotty pine is not just fine it’s fabulous. Take an interesting 70s home, play to its strengths and celebrate the wooden interiors. Add only touches of black and white, streamline the furnishings and BAM! you have a stylish country getaway without bringing out the can of white paint. Belleayre A-Frame in Highmont, NY by BHDM.
