This, friends, is the most perfect cottage ever. Mountain Cottage in Cashiers, NC. Designed by Basic Projects. Our whole office called this cottage ‘The Dream’. Our clients are some of our favorites we’ve ever worked with – not only did they have impeccable taste, they have an amazing view on life and had collected so many little gems to include in the decor – they made this project as fun and easy as it gets. They told us they wanted an “english cottage in the NC mountains”… so with that, we did not fear lots of pattern, plenty of frames and books to cozy up with by the double sided wood burning fireplace and materials that were “family friendly” so the kids could walk through with muddy boots – all staples in the English countryside.

“A classic Long Island farmhouse that reflects how we live and entertain today, in which unique connections between spaces allow for a variety of interactions and connections.”

Situated in an old orchard this traditional gable roofed home has had new life breathed into it with a contemporary interpretation of farmhouse aesthetics by Elizabeth Roberts Architects. Fundamental to the new design are the sun room re-imagined with cement tiles, pine panelling and wood burning stove, the perfect spot for all year round living and a welcoming kitchen where family and friends can gather.

Wow. WOW. It’s spaces like these that make me crave earth tones sooooooo much. Shades of white, cream, brown and black make for such a warm, easy-on-the-eye atmosphere. Paris designer Émilie Bonaventure of BE Attitude created an absolute masterpiece with this apartment in the 9th arrondissement. Those curved windows and doors are such a dream.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish like the offics of Madrid=based interior designers Espejo y Goyanes.

A simple apartment but simply stylish. Don’t get me started on the vaulted ceiling. Caldrap in Poble Sec district of Barcelona by Nook Architects.
