A traditional country home in Sussex that is kept bright and fresh with touches of modernity and youthfulness. Designed by Johnston Parke Interiors. This stunning Grade II listed country house was the family home of The Duchess of Cornwall and had a completed revamp in 2019 for a young family who wanted to maintain the character of the building but inject a sense of fun and colour. They moved from Australia with 1 sofa,  a mattress and some art so everything had to be sourced from scratch including antiques.

If things like maximalism, layered patterns upon patterns, archways and colour are up your alley then may I present to you some pretty extraordinary spaces by Dallas designer Michelle Nussbaumer (of Ceylon et Cie), including the epic blue and white tiled kitchen in her home in San Miguel de Allende. This woman is in a league of her own and I cannot get enough.

My dreams about moving out to the country and having lots of land and a farmhouse look something like this. Pehrses farm was built in 1853, is on 2.05 hectares with several outbuildings and located in Hälsinglands, Sweden. It has many historic, original details like several tiled stoves, wood floors, wallpaper, rafters etc. Absolutely gorgeous. This home is available for sale via Historika Hem.

This gorgeous Connecticut country home was designed by the legendary Robert Couturier and is a real stunner. Designed with a plethora of antiques, it looks fairly traditional but upon closer inspection there is evidence of subtle modern touches. I love the black and white tile floor through many of the main spaces. Always a classy and graphic choice.

Last year I featured the pattern-a-licious Guatemalan home of designer Rodman Primack. It seems he has since packed up and moved to Mexico City where his new home is awash with colour and patterns and some groovy mid-century furnishings. So much fun!!! (Photos: Stephen Johnson)
