A candy-coloured home outside Amsterdam

Posted on Mon, 19 Sep 2022 by KiM

Pink, purple, green, yellow and every shade in between make this home fun, family-friendly, colourful to the max and full of energy. Designed by Atelier ND Interior, it is located outside Amsterdam and owned by actors Guy Pearce and Carice van Houten. How could you not have a smile on your face when you walk through the front door?

Hotel Saint Vincent

Posted on Thu, 15 Sep 2022 by KiM


A building with an illustrious past, the Hotel Saint Vincent‘s story begins 160 ago when it was opened as the Saint Vincent’s Infant Asylum by the heroic Margaret Houghery. Unveiled in the summer of 2021, in New Orleans’ Lower Garden District, the careful restoration of this 1861 building honors its stately history while layering on a new sense of modernity. The interior spaces are a marriage of original 19th century detailing with mid-20th century Italian design elements. Including 75 guestrooms and suites, guests and members can enjoy drinks by the newly refurbished pool or the dark and moody Chapel Club. Our San Lorenzo restaurant serves coastal Italian fare to locals and guests as well as the Paradise bar where all are welcome. The Elizabeth Street cafe offers breakfast pastries, coffee and Vietnamese fare throughout the day.

Cow Hollow

Seattle-based Heidi Caillier completes another stunning project filled with unique, warm colours and a melange of patterns as she is known for. Cow Hollow exudes the coziest of feels I want to hug each one of these spaces. (Photos: Haris Kenjar)

I was looking for info on this home I found in the portfolio of designer Henri Fitzwilliam-Lay and discovered this feature in House & Garden that provides many more photos and details…like the fact that this is Henri’s own home – a brick and stone mansion, with a belvedere tower, Dutch gables and large stone-mullioned windows located in Shropshire and built in 1856, then rebuilt after a fire in 1878. The home is exquisite and has so much personality. I am in love. (Jo featured another one of her projects a few months back)

A restrained palette of blues

Posted on Tue, 13 Sep 2022 by KiM

Lots of different shades of blue but done in a restrained way by Notting Hill based design firm Barlow & Barlow. This 1700 sq ft home is inviting and along with the pretty colours of blue (and a bit of green and pink) the patterns add whimsy. And the kitchen is a dream, complete with banquette dining area and windowed pantry!
