Lots of different shades of blue but done in a restrained way by Notting Hill based design firm Barlow & Barlow. This 1700 sq ft home is inviting and along with the pretty colours of blue (and a bit of green and pink) the patterns add whimsy. And the kitchen is a dream, complete with banquette dining area and windowed pantry!

Nina Farmer‘s design philosophy is rooted in a classical sensibility with a mixture of furniture and accessories from different periods. It says so on her website. This Westport house mixes that classical sensibility with mid-century chops and just a touch of rock star glam. The result is unexpected, elegant, inviting and timeless.

Honoring a treasured past while incorporating the colorful decades of the Haight-Ashbury. This San Francisco home designed by Nicole Hollis is a colourful modern masterpiece with some Moroccan flair. It’s spectacular! I just noticed it has been recently featured on Architectural Digest with more juciy photos and details/sources.

Up in the attic under the eaves is a surprise. No cobwebs and dust or forgotten boxes. No up in the attic is an amazing spa-like bathroom with natural finishes and a muted palette. Timber and tiles, plaster and marble. Oh the marble! An exquisite pedestal basin and circular bath. To complete the spa ambience a seating area perfect for conversation or lingering. Home sanctuary by Amsterdam-based international design and architectural firm Barde vanVoltt.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Pickled Poet by Duet.
