Bold art and kid-friendly furnishings are what make this renovated Upper West Side apartment super functional and dynamic. Designer Megan Grehl kept the walls mostly white which makes the art are sculptural furniture take centre stage. 5000 sq ft of fabulousness.

A midnight blue cocooning foyer, a mustard yellow accent chair, a Togo leather sofa in cognac with coordinating painted nook (love this!!!), more blue and yellow in the bedroom…. This apartment by Italian designer Grazia Caruso of Vesper Design is modern and vibrant and I really love the warmth of these colours playing off each other. Such good energy in this space.












As of this past Friday, we Ontarians are able to once again eat inside a restaurant, bar etc, go to a gym and pretty much anywhere we used to pre-pandemic (but of course, wearing masks where possible indoors, and often is the law). Several of my favourite shops and restaurants choose to be cautious and are open by appointment only or continue to only offer takeout or patio only. If enjoying some time in a restaurant, bar or café were as simple as it was a few months ago, any of these beautiful spaces designed by Paris-based firm Laplace would be ideal.














Warm and bright, classic and timeless. A gorgeous renovation of a West Village duplex by wellness architect Pippa Lee of Pip + Pencil.












I’m still on the hunt for garden inspiration and I’ve found the garden of my city loving dreams. Small but big on impact. Stylish, easy maintenance and perfect for entertaining or just taking time for yourself. The transition between paver to planks to pebbles then grass is genius.
