More from Lisa Burdus with this spectacular home in Mosman, New South Wales, Australia. It is a bit of her favourite – English country with some contemporary to keep it a bit more current and functional. Once again her layering and use of patterns is on point.

A little vacation to a cottage as beautiful and soothing and easy on the eye as this one would be a dream. This neutral stone & thatched roof cottage in The Cotswolds is all wood and white and sisal and stone and wicker and linen/cotton….it’s heaven. Available as a location home via Shoot Factory.

Woodwork that should never EVERRRRRRRR be painted over. Lisa Staton doing god’s work and NOT giving in to painting out such beauty. AMEN. This classic Tudor home was a diamond in the rough when our clients acquired it. It had all of its original charm intact: classic oak paneling, leaded glass windows and 1920’s detailing throughout. Our clients choose to restore the classic bones of the home while updating all systems for modern family living. All bathrooms and the kitchen were completely gutted and re-worked. Careful attention was paid to repeating original details in newly renovated areas, including a leaded glass transom between breakfast room and kitchen and custom commissioned cabinets for the kitchen that match original library paneling. Windows were meticulously restored rather than replaced. And much original lighting from the house was re-wired and re-installed. For furnishings we chose to pair classic pieces with more modern art and shapes. Repeated throughout the house is a rhythm of black and white. We then married grays and blues with warmer woods and vintage rugs and textiles. (Photos: Haris Kenjar)

Texas-born and London-based Brandon Schubert is a new-to-me interior designer who seems to be able to embrace several of my favourite styles like traditional British and mid century whilst embracing some bits of colour and contemporary touches. He loves to create interiors that feel natural in their setting and which draw on different time periods for energy and balance with a sense of permanence. These are a selection of spaces from his portfolio that caught my eye.

Sharing another period home that I have fallen in love with thanks to Shoot Factory. This Grade II listed property was built around 1700. It includes a 5 bedroom restored and renovated stone home with outbuildings including a restored barn and man cave. The exterior has all the charm you could want in an old English home, while the interior has beautiful original details with some modern touches. (Photographer: Richard Oxford)
