Classic details marry with contemporary profiles to create a space outside of an era. Timefull materials, intended to age, lend ease and authenticity to the design. Unlacquered brass, hand troweled plaster, honed Pietra Gris, and ebonized oak walk the line between grandeur and everyday living. Pairings: wild rice, rainy afternoons, Crémant d’Alsace.
This is home of Victoria Sass of Minneapolis-based Prospect Refuge. It is everything I love about design and more. Respecting the history of a home (NOT painting the original woodwork!), adding lots of vintage touches and mixing it with more contemporary furnishings which are often what gets you the level of comfort we have come to expect. I adore every little bit each space. Photos: Chris Mottalini.

This charming period property in Midhurst was in urgent need of an overhaul after being a rental for many years. The ground floor felt very cramped and had an awkward layout, whilst upstairs was riddled with damp issues. We completed a full design and build on this property, with a good sized ground floor extension and a total refurbishment. This allowed for an inviting kitchen and dining area which was perfect for our clients’ to entertain and spend time with their family. Carefully considered colour was injected into all the rooms, together with playful fabrics and unique vintage furniture. 
This home is now brimming with personality thanks to the kaleidoscope of colour used throughout. It is tantalizing right from the entryway and invites you inside with open arms. By Vaughan Design & Development.

This apartment in the historic Cobble Hill neighorhood belongs to partner, Erin Fearins and has been carefully renovated to include custom millwork and an expertly layered mix of vintage furniture pieces and carefully curated art and antiques.
Erin of Studio FSW decked out her family’s apartment with layers of vintage and antique finds, very bold graphic wallpapers and fabrics and daring colour choices. A designer after my own heart. (Photos: Lesley Unruh).

I typically feature grand homes on Sundays but I ended up on Historiska Hem and found this absolutely charming Villa Björkdalen for sale in Rönninge, Sweden. A former small private school and a vicar’s residence, this adorable home retains much of its original character both interior and exterior but has been modernized for today’s lifestyle. Which in my opinion makes it PERFECT. How much would I love a yellow cottage? SO VERY MUCH.

Warsaw-based Colombe Studio never ceases to amaze me with their creativity and attention to detail. This kitchen may not be huge or have lots of storage but it’s a work of art and absolutely beautiful. This apartment is giving me somewhat museum vibes but in the best way as it is still inviting but every item and every detail makes such a statement. Photos: Kasia Gatkowska
