Jo shared the 17th century, 3,300 sq ft Milan palazzo of designer Vincenzo De Cotiis a few years ago and I recently stumbled upon it again and because it truly is one of the most exquisite homes I have ever seen I wanted to share it again. This is what taking the time to peel back years and years of layers can get you. And when you leave it raw and untreated, it is absolutely magical and something to be revered for years to come.

I have no idea how I have gone this long not knowing about the exquisitely artful, collected, refined spaces of Houston/LA based designer Garrett Hunter. And for those that also didn’t know, NOW YOU KNOW.

An elegant Tuscan villa

Posted on Fri, 26 Feb 2021 by KiM

I lose my marbles over every project that Hubert Zandberg gets his paws on. And this one which is a bit more traditional than most of his work is glorious, and perfect in a Tuscan setting. Villa Medane – An exclusive Tuscan villa and estate located in the dramatic hilly countryside outside Siena, a second home for one of our returning clients. The design concept was to create a comfortable retreat that references the centuries old rich history of the area and at the same time incorporates these with a curated mix of both vintage and contemporary elements and found pieces, for contemporary living.

Gregory Mellor‘s aesthetic is understated and elegant with an emphasis on comfort and authenticity. For his own house in the South African countryside there is a mix of family antiques, textures and textiles. The look is rustic yet classically timeless.

Sunday at my dream property

Posted on Sun, 31 Jan 2021 by KiM

I spotted this breathtaking, incredulous home comprised of a collection of Cotswolds stone barns the other day @ Shoot Factory (located in Cirenchester, Gloucestershire, England) and was blown away. Unfortunately the owners did not do the decor justice so I’ll share only one photo of the interior but WOW the gardens and expanse of space of this property are a dream!!! Also having a series of Cotswold stone barns This has me wanting to buy ALLLLL the boxwoods and convince my husband he loves trimming them. There’s something about symmetry and order to landscaping that really speaks to me.
