This 220m2 apartment in Paris’ 16th arrondissement represents Paris design to a T. The meticulousness of the details to take advantage of every square inch and provide plenty of storage, the exquisite selection of furnishings, a wide range of materiality (that MUST include marble), and an overall air of sophistication and elegance that one expects from a Parisian dwelling.

A historic Connecticut home originally built in the 1830s along the Silvermine River, The Basket House was once a working basketmaker’s workshop. Moore House Design reimagined the residence for Brunch with Babs, blending heritage craftsmanship with modern livability across a comprehensive renovation and restoration.The project scope included a full kitchen and pantry redesign, new dining and living spaces, custom tilework, and handcrafted finishes throughout. Signature details — including woven latticework, hand-painted tiles, and bespoke plaster treatments — celebrate the home’s artisanal roots while creating a warm, inviting foundation for everyday life.
The decor here leans much more traditional than we’re used to seeing from MHD, and I am really loving how they leaned into it with lots of sage green and elements of nature. It includes the prettiest and most funtional European style kitchen, a moody great room, a former greenhouse turned dining room, lattice embellished breakfast nook… Photos: Jared Kuzia; Styling: Jennlilly Mckeon.

Blending warmth and natural beauty with organic materials and a neutral palette, this home features rich wood elements and subtle stone veining, balanced by soft textures and modern lighting to create a harmonious and inviting atmosphere.
I had to share another project by Storie Collective, because this kitchen is a pure eye candy. It’s so simple and neutral and perfectly functional, and the gorgeous banquette situation is where you’d find me working, reading, eating, hanging. Photos: Stacy Zarin Goldberg.

Another fabulous example of mixing old and new architecture and function. Architecture and design firm Bangia Agostinho were tasked with the renovation of this landmarked late 19th century Brooklyn townhouse. They reimagined the home for modern living while honoring the its original character. A previous remodel had erased much of its detail—bleached floors, painted-over mahogany woodwork, and lost ornamentation. The new design restores depth and craftsmanship through a rich material palette and custom cabinetry that balance historic detail with contemporary function. Much of the original mahogany woodwork was still intact and this, god bless them, was restored. Upgraded systems and thoughtfully integrated living and work spaces create a layered, refined home tailored to a young family. Photos: Pia Ulin.

This prestigious home has been completely redesigned and renovated, giving it a new lease on life. The Blanc Marine signature style shines through in the use of exquisite natural materials and thoughtful details. The combination of refined textures, architectural features, and subtle craftsmanship has restored the home’s welcoming presence and timeless personality.
I saw some ‘before’ photos of this on Instagram and OMGGGGG Blanc Marine really did give this home a new life. It was stuck in the 90s with features that really needed to stay in the past and be forgotten. This home is now elegant and relevant. Photos: Annie Fafard.
