White, blanched, chalky, snowy, milky, ivory, clean, spotless, pale, light, colourless, pure, unblemished, achromatic, without hue. The White Room by Barcelona-based Italian architects CaSA is a minimalist holiday apartment in Sitges, Spain just a few steps from the beach. At just 36 sq m with 11 sq m of terrace this tiny, shiny white box was renovated on a very small budget and is now a light filled refuge, a peaceful place for introspection for its owner, a French Art historian and curator, professor at the Sorbonne University.

No matter how my taste in interior decor changes over the years, one style has never wavered – a very rustic, centuries-old home filled with vintage and modern furnishings. The Ampurdán House whose interior is designed by Serge Castella is absolutely stunning. Pairing Panton chairs (one of my all-time favourites) with a big old reclaimed wood table surrounded by ancient architecture and an oversized piece of modern art for some extra zing is just about the best thing ever. A diamond in the rough. (Previous feature of his work here)

Crisp, contemporary lines within an older building. White walls bounce light while splashes of colour in furnishings and art, wide oak planks, original posts and warm wood tones ensure that the spaces are not sterile. Casa CC58 in Barrio Salamanca, Madrid by Lucas y Hernández-Gil Arquitectos.

Beautiful light spills through French doors making its way further into this apartment through internal windows and cut outs, reflecting off glass walls and slick services. White walls and pale floors lift and brighten the space while a colour palette of greys and blues and greens calms and relaxes. The re-design of this old flat in the heart of Barrio de Salamanca, Madrid has created a cool retreat from the harsh Spanish sun. Minimalist style for maximum impact. Ayala House by ÁBATON.

When looking through Manhattan interior designer Tori Golub‘s portfolio, you may mistake it for an ad for 1stdibs. Which means each item of furniture, lighting and accessory is a statement piece. Her interiors are works of art, sculptural and organic. I’m obsessing over the art in the photo below.
