HALLELUJAH!!! Designer Anne McDonald did not paint the wood work in this home! That along with the moody wallpapered dining room, the classic European-style kitchen and the dramatic eye-candy bathrooms, is how you totally nail a 1880’s renovation. I AM IN LOVE! Photos: Wing Ho.

Located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, the home was inspired by a playful, comfortable take on Colonial simplicity. Highlights include multiple handmade wallpapers, including a textured recycled newsprint in the main stair hall. Lots of bright light, some patterns and hits of colour, with the addition of some vintage elements makes this home exuberant and effortlessly casual and inviting. Another wonderful project designed by Jessica Stambaugh of JS Interiors.

Imagine starting your day in this “Secret Garden” bathroom by Baltimore-based Strom Interior Studio. Modern luxury with a historical reference this pretty summery room feels like it has always been in this 1854 Colonial. I’d end up with wrinkly skin because I’d never want to leave.

We approached the project with the intention to not remove any features which were in good enough condition and could be made good or reused. The main focus was to create a more functional kitchen layout, gaining more storage space and a social dining area for entertaining. A general cosmetic refurb consisting of sanding down and repainting all millwork and doors, patching old walls and replacing the bathroom with all new tiles and brass ware. The property has an abundance of natural daylight through dual aspect windows, in the kitchen and living areas. This grounded the intention of working with this attribute by keeping the scheme in neutral tones, pale yellows and off whites. Infused with a generous amount of contrasting tones and materials create depth and intrigue. Geometric fabrics prints and tile patterns, adds a playful touch to the scheme. Further personalised with a mixed collections of wall hung art and collectable objects.
What a wonderful project by Pernille Lind Studio, and that deVOL kitchen is simply divine. Saving this to my inspiration folder.

There’s something so charming, stately and old-world about Tudor homes that I just can’t get enough. This stunner in Dallas was carefully restored and updated and has such incredible features inside and out. I am in love with every single detail. Hats off to Sees Design and Maestri Studio for really doing this wonderful home justice. Photos: Studio-Woodstock & Jenifer McNeil Baker.
