Refined rustic in a new-build cottage

Posted on Mon, 6 Jul 2020 by KiM

Lots of warm whites with punches of black make this new-build cottage in Innisfil, Ontario very bright and inviting. It’s a refined take on country cottage style with a relaxed vibe and a simple approach to the decor. Lidia Van Zyl created a really beautiful getaway for the homeowners to enjoy.

What was once a dilapidated mess is now the perfect log cabin lake house getaway with tons of rustic charm. Warm modern furnishings and lighting create a beautiful counterbalance to the log structure. Stunning design by Jean Stoffer.

A timeless black and white kitchen

Posted on Tue, 30 Jun 2020 by KiM

I am head over heels over this kitchen. Every inch if it. The drama of the contrast between black and white, with gold tones added in wood, art and the pendant, the soapstone countertops and integrated sink, the Indonesian rosewood armoire pantry (a Kijiji steal)….and perhaps my favourite touch is the fact that designer Inez Mazzotta (Kelly Hopter Interiors) left the window casings white and painted the rest of the window black. Graphic with a touch of subtlety.

A modern classic home in Michigan

Posted on Tue, 30 Jun 2020 by KiM

Lots of brightness and warmth in this Michigan home designed by Jean Stoffer. It is a wonderful example of how to break up lots of white with some dark moments. The black front door, the dark kitchen coffee bar, the charcoal tile and millwork in the mudroom, the navy wainscotting and ceiling in the dining room, the dark green nursery…. all add drama and coziness.

Rustic global elegance

Posted on Wed, 24 Jun 2020 by KiM

I am completely smitten with this stunning Florida home designed by Bohlert Massey. The architectural details are extraordinary, and highlight the global treasures found throughout each room. With an eclectic mix of antique furnishings from different eras and layers of textiles and materials, it’s a feast for the eyes.
