If you think your home lacks a certain whimsical or creative energy, then this project by Alberto Villalobos is packed full of creative ideas that are a lot of fun and pack a punch. It starts with ceramic dogs flanking the front door. Then a random swirl pattern painted on the foyer floor. A planter of ferns built under a window. An ombre stair runner. A green and gold kitchen. A patchwork terrazzo floor. A monochromatic orange office. A dramatic black and brass bathroom. Yesssssssss to all of these elements.

I’m always on the hunt for kitchen inspiration as mine needs an overhaul in a big way. Christina Samatas and Renee DiSanto of Park & Oak seem to have a knack for creating the dreamiest of classic, timeless, and really functional kitchens. I’d be ecstatic with any one of these in my home.

I have been following Atelier Vime for some time now on Instagram, and it finally dawned on me that I should feature this truly magical French shop/design studio here on the blog. They are a vintage basketry shop and producer of wicker, rattan and rope furniture, located in Vallabrègues in an 18th century hôtel particulier. You would never know their photos were actually “product” shots as the architectural details and styling of the spaces is consistently exemplary.

You would have a difficult time convincing me there that there was anything more beautiful than exposed wood beams, trim-free plaster walls, old-world tiled and raw wood floors. This home in Limburg, The Netherlands, is breathtaking. Interior design by Niels Maier. Photos by Thomas De Bruyne.

This home in Särö, Sweden I spotted on Residence ticks all the right boxes for me. The warm neutral walls accentuate the architecture, the green tile in the kitchen is blowing my mind, and the eclectic mix of eras in the furniture really lends itself to a storied interior. (Photos: Fanny Hansson)
