Located in the heart of the picturesque historic centre of Olot, this majestic three-storey manor house evokes the elegance and charm of the early 20th century. With a total built area of 702 square metres and situated on a plot of 985 square metres, this property offers a perfect blend of history and modernity. Original architectural elements, carefully preserved, such as ornamental mouldings, mosaic floors, and guillotine windows, add character and authenticity to every corner. A total of 18 rooms and 4 complete bathrooms spread across its various levels. Additionally, this property boasts an extensive garden and orchard.
A home so full of character and history and such beautiful details I had to share despite it being unfurnished. Incredible opportunity to have so much space and be right in the heart of the city (pros and cons to that mind you). For sale for €750,000 via Lucas Fox.

A bucolic country period property in need of some serious attention, which over a period of two years was sensitively and comprehensively renovated. Spaces were reconfigured to suit this modern and dynamic family, with layered interiors creating a sense of fun and sophistication throughout.
I love this home so much. It’s playful and colourful without being too bold and the colours (especially that yellow in the boot room – ‘Torino’ by Argile) and the patterns in the wallpapers are beautiful. Designed by Studio Peake. Photos: Alexander James.

Is it because it rains alot in the UK that designers seem to have a boatload of fun with colours when designing a home – to combat the gloominess of what’s going on outside? I don’t know what their deal is but they should keep it coming because I am in awe of their willingness to go all out in just about every room. Hats off to Studio Holland for bringing in all sorts of wonderful colours in this full renovation of a large family country house in Sussex.

Colour was used in unique ways in this 1910 home in Berkeley, California that is a bit Arts and Crafts and Art Deco. Instead of drenching all of the walls designer Becky Carter used colour more so on the baseboards and window trim as well as doors which is a technique that works really well in spaces where colourful artwork is hung. It doesn’t compete with the art but adds drama in more subtle ways. LOOOOOOVE this so much! Photos: Sam Frost.

Bringing in patterns with textiles and wallpaper is always going to win over my heart. Like this home designed by Caitlin Flemming. I’d swap out all the white for something a little warmer but otherwise this home in Petaluma, California is a home run. Cozy and vintage-vibes that are classic and will endure the test of time.
