This type of classic, pared down style really speaks to me. It’s so beautiful and each space reads like a piece of art. This would be what I do in my fourth house 😉 Designed by Atlanta based Anna Booth Interiors.

Magnificent castle restored in a park of 9 hectares with hundred-year-old trees. At the end of a majestic driveway, magnificent castle in its green environment. 20 main rooms, reception rooms, dining rooms, billiard room, and 11 bedrooms. Restored and operated for some time as a bed and breakfast, the estate is composed of the main house, a beautiful renovated janitor’s house, numerous outbuildings, a beautiful swimming pool, and a park planted with century-old trees with a lake.
I’m dying. Where do I sign?!?! For sale via Le Figaro Properties.

The aesthetic goals of this project were simple and practical and relatively economical. It’s a place to go and relax but it’s not meant to be showy. It’s for comfort and delight. It’s sensible and easy.
That could not sound more perfect. This Inverness, CA home is designed by Corine Maggio of CM Natural Designs. (Photos: Carley Page Summers. Construction: Brett and Jack Matthews)

Olivier and Carole didn’t hesitate when they came across this millstone house from the beginning of the century, a stone’s throw from Parc Montsouris. It was just perfect for a large blended family. Delightfully old-fashioned with its small rooms and flowered papers, it still needed a complete overhaul. This allowed it to be slightly restructured to make it a place that is totally adapted to the new inhabitants.
Each floor is beautifully organised. The ground floor is the meeting place for the whole family: a beautiful entrance hall with its 1900 cement tiles and an invigorating red colour, a large living room with two deep velvet sofas and a reading corner near the library and the fireplace; a huge kitchen with a farm table and large shelves for displaying the dishes, not forgetting the scullery which overlooks the inner courtyard. The first floor is the children’s floor: two bedrooms for the girls with a spacious bathroom to share, a third bedroom with its toilet for Igor. The top floor under the roof is mainly the parents’, with a huge room that allows for the accumulation of books…

Books and art and books and art!!!! I adore this Upper Est Side apartment belonging to architect Carlos Garciavelez and interior designer David Lawrence of design firm Carlos David. Aside from the books and art they created lots of graphic, impactful elements that I adore in what is a simple layout. Brilliant!
