I have a thing for grey, and so I fell in love with this 119 m² loft apartment in Östermalm, Stockholm as soon as I spotted it. White walls make a beautiful backdrop for grey here with subtle accents in colours via plants, the beautiful rattan pendant and the dining chairs. Lovely! For sale via Lagerlings.

The Grey House in Camber

Posted on Wed, 20 Sep 2017 by KiM

It’s a dream I’ve always harboured. An unpretentious beachside house, comfortable with an almost spartan beauty… almost. I would always have room for a found object or a time worn piece. A short walk to a wind swept beach. The sound of waves ever present like a heartbeat of a simple life. A home to be alone and a home to share with family and friends. A house a little something like this. The Grey House Camber via Light Locations.

Such a beautiful home and a beautiful story. Keeping things traditional today. Dating back to 1555 this beautiful Grade II listed property has both an impressive history and a fascinating human story. Having been owned by a particular family for some generations, it was sold by the current owner’s grandmother when he was just a boy. Although he was very young at the time, the sale greatly affected him. He vowed that as an adult he would buy back the house which had brought him so many happy childhood memories – a goal which he recently achieved much to the delight of his family. We were thrilled to be approached by the family to help restore the house to its natural grandeur. We began by stripping away to rediscover original features, such as beautiful wooden panelling and magnificent stone fireplaces, which had become lost under layers of incongruous decoration. Our clients wanted a graceful yet contemporary feel which we achieved by using a light colour scheme and natural materials. Designed by Sims Hilditch.

Relaxed elegance in the Hamptons

Relaxed elegance. Textural and artisanal, sophisticated and modern. Beautiful bespoke details with organic finishes. A fresh take on the Hamptons look. It’s coastal in a class of its own. Hedges Lane, Sagaponack by interior designer Tamara Magel.

Working on a Saturday

As I say week after week, if you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. It doesn’t get more stylish than La Porte Space‘s latest creative complex La Porte Deux with its event space, photographic studio, boutique short-term and long-term offices and a retail space in Sydney’s Rosebery. Exquisite.
