Give me all the old-world, centuries-old, weathered interiors. Sandstone and limewashed walls, fireplaces with wood-fired stoves, reclaimed wood, antique furniture…all in pretty earthy neutral shades of calm. I could not love these spaces more, designed by Notting Hill based studio Aldridge & Supple. Photos: Martin Morrell.

The renovation and extension of this decades-old ski chalet required full interior architectural design and detailing, space planning, and interior decoration. The needs of a young family and their guests, combined with the functionality essential to a ski chalet, underpin the design concept – celebrating nature through the choice of materials and honouring culture through bespoke craftsmanship.
This chalet is so very Swiss Alps but with some unique touches by the defying-all-trends designer Hubert Zandberg. I love that every one of his projects is so full of pattern and texture and is as inviting as can be. And not a single trend to be found! Photos: Giulio Ghirardi.

Shane & Pierce is the recent joint venture of LA based designer Evan Shane Krenzien and Dallas-based developer Pierce Jordan. It seems these two talented guys got together to work on Pierce’s Normandy inspired home he built (designed by architect Juan Carlos deLeon) and it was such a success they decided to work together on more projects. I can see why – this home feels modern but has an old-world flavour to it and a warmth that is so welcoming. That kitchen is giving Tuscan vibes and the morning room is a dream. Also, marble wainscotting?!?! I am smitten with it all. Photos: Michael P. H. Clifford; Styling: Shelley Warkentin.

My obsession with Heidi Caillier‘s projects continues with this West Seattle beauty in her typical vintage/traditional style with a funky edge. That kitchen has captured my heart but it makes me wonder how much I’d be into that painted wood floor over time. Sometimes I think they are really cute even when worn in the high traffic areas but not sure if I’d regret it. What do you think about painted wood floors in kitchens?

With offices in California and Massachusetts, Katie Martinez Design respects a space’s history and architecture while incorporating timeless design elements. For the 1740 Ripley Residence, the firm led a full renovation and expansion, collaborating with the owners to introduce rich layers of colour and pattern. They sourced primarily vintage and handcrafted pieces and designed the cabinetry, bathrooms and finishes with thoughtful attention to detail.
