This maisonette flat running over the top two floors and loft of this Victorian terrace was a blank canvass and complete labour of love. The property was run down and in a sorry state of disrepair. The brief was to turn it into a warm and inviting family home for a working mum and her young son. What’s more, colour, pattern, eclectic touches and vintage finds were to be positively encouraged! With the requirement to store thousands of books we kept the vaulted ceiling and created bespoke wall to ceiling joinery to form the backdrop and heart of this open plan space.
I love how considered and unique this home is and the colours really make it homey. Designed by Chiswick (West London) based Brooke Copp-Barton.

When dealing with a small space, DO NOT think you need to avoid average/large sized furniture and colour and pattern. In the case of Cath Beckett of design firm Yellow London, her 2 bedroom flat in Notting Hill, London is bold and quirky and has things like a large sofa in the middle of her living room, and a wacky wallpaper (Pierre Fray’s Plein Eté) in her teeny dining room. Her space is super cozy and full of personality and I could not love it more.

In a highly privileged location on a pedestrian street in Girona’s romantic old town, we find this exceptional property for sale. It is a magnificent historic manor house with a built size of 1,140 m² and an idyllic walled garden of 409 m² with a beautiful portico. Having such a large garden is very rare at the heart of the city. The property is brimming with original period features, ​such as beautiful coloured mosaic floor tiles, large balcony windows and impressive high ceilings, as the interiors have been almost untouched for nearly a century. The house currently has 8 bedrooms and 5 offices, therefore there is space for at least 13 bedrooms, making it ideal for conversion into a luxury boutique hotel or into separate spacious apartments with a communal garden. There is also an attic of 135 m² with the potential to raise the roof height and convert it into a penthouse apartment with an amazing terrace of over 100 m² with lovely views across the old town rooftops.
The potential of this home knows no bounds. It’s such a shame the current owners have done nothing to enhance its beauty. For sale for €2,500,000 via Lucas Fox.

New homes tend to be so sterile and void of interesting architectural details. But not when Anne McDonald is on the project. A stairwell with cutouts that make it really pop, a double sided masonry fireplace and some shiplap/paneled walls really help provide an old world, vintage vibe.
