With its post war modernist bones it would be easy to reproduce a retro 50’s decor or worse demo and create a bare modern interior. Instead Warsaw-based interior design firm Colombe celebrated the building painting everything white then appling pops of colour framed like works of art and filling it with a mix of midcentury and contemporary pieces. Fun, fabulous and fresh, a liveable, loveable family home.

Sleek minimalism in the northern suburbs of Madrid. Referencing its Spanish roots but lightening and lifting, constraining and curating leaving a thoroughly contemporary home. Minimalism with soul. RI Countryside House Madrid by Burondo.

Light-filled and fabulous this Madrid apartment by Espejo & Goyanes celebrates the historic bones of the building but adds a refined contemporary sophistication. Natural wood tones combine with brighter than bright whites while golden metals and black accents punctuate the scheme.

This stunning, minimalist home in Oria, Italy by architect/designer Andrew Trotter makes me want to forget I love pattern and colour. I don’t think I could live like this year round but give me a home like this in Italy or Greece as a vacation home used solely for unwinding and getting away from the chaos of everyday life and I would be a very happy camper. It is so serene and almost other-worldly. Photos: Salva López.

It is a reform of an existing house in ruins, which had already been built with sandstone walls sourced from a local sandstone quarry. The house is located on the outskirts of Porreras, a town located in the center-south of the Island of Mallorca, on a plot with a certain slope and views towards the town surrounded by the northern part of an oak grove and a cultivated field where traditionally they grow apricots. Raw materials are used to build the interior of the house.
Simple, modern, bright and blends with the landscape. What a work of art this is. Designed by munarq architectural studio. Photos: Silvia Foz
