It’s lovely. Light and bright, sophisticated yet relaxed, traditional yet fresh and fabulous. The perfect home … I should say second home. A stylish family getaway in the chic seaside hamlet of Corona Del Mar, California by Kelly Nutt Design.
It’s just a hallway I hear you say. It’s just a staircase. Yet I’m crushing heavily on these normally neglected areas. In the hands of Moscow-based Malyeva Interiors the monochromatic spaces are crisp, refined, divine. Such timeless beauty.
It looks like it could be beachside Nantucket but instead it’s lakeside in St. Louis, Missouri. A base of crisp, bright white is enhanced with pops of colour, vintage finds and handcrafted touches with visual interest added through texture and patina. This serene family vacation home could have looked staged and cheesy in the wrong hands. Instead the Amy Studebaker Design project has a casual elegance, a coastal charm.

Drum roll please … my first stalking post for the year! I’m in the inner Sydney suburb of Darlinghurst stalking an old mechanics garage converted by SJB. Black and white with luxury touches of marble, a dramatic vertical garden wall and old steel windows. Stylish contemporary warehouse living a stone’s throw from the CBD and only $2.7million. Link here while it lasts.
Some edgy bohemian vibes to end off the work week. Check out more of this project by Veneer Designs here including some scary before photos.
