Where once nothing would grow under towering pines now an urban oasis thrives. Grasses wave in the wind and timber boardwalks lead you from garden room to garden room to vista. Low maintenance, drought tolerant and beautiful. What more could you want? Reece by TERREMOTO.

On the property there are a total of eight bedrooms with seven bathrooms and three large terraces on different sides and an arched loggia that extends over the entire building. The property includes over 2.8 hectares of land with vineyards, woods, orchards and vegetable gardens, a swimming pool with views of the Apennines and outbuildings for storing equipment. A gravel path leads through the vineyard to the property and a lawn with walled swimming pool. The main stone building dates back to the 13th century and has been carefully restored. At the front of the property is a terracotta terrace that runs the length of the property and leads to the seven interconnecting rooms on the first floor. The first floor rooms have great features such as vaulted ceilings, high wood beam ceilings and medieval stone floors! The entire property extends over 2.8 hectares and, in addition to the vineyard and woods, includes a small apple orchard and a large outbuilding for the storage of vehicles and equipment. In the gardens there is a workshop and a large vegetable patch, as well as numerous fig and walnut trees.

Taking a home that is devoid of personality, colour and texture, and breathing new life into its walls is something that brings us unending joy. Nestled in Vancouver’s British Properties, the exterior of this stunning modernist-style home didn’t match its bland interior. The extensive 12-month renovation saw the home take on a new and exciting persona. The clients had asked us to be bold, experimental and create something not easily reproducible. Inspired by the bungalow-style homes of the Hollywood Hills, we took a page from days gone by and married a more modern aesthetic with one that felt classic and with real history. Our homes should reflect what we want to see in the world, and for this homeowner that meant boldness, colour and warmth. The furniture and decor were curated and sourced globally, with cutting-edge design paired with seamlessly with antique pieces.
Another project by PlaidFox Studio, this one is more modern and what they’re known for, whilst oozing with creativity and personality. I am obsessed with Montreal’s Lambert & Fils lighting and the Parc collection lights over the kitchen island look incredible. (Photos: Ema Peter)

Is it the weekend yet? Please? I think I’ll spend today daydreaming that I’m holidaying at this spectacularly renovated 300-year-old finca with nine luxurious bedroom suites, a saltwater swimming pool, dedicated wellness area and a sound-proofed party cave. Yes a sound-proofed party cave. For me it’s just a dream but maybe you can go. Finca La Inika available for rent via Domus Nova.

“Pacific House is an alteration and addition to an existing 1990’s concrete framed cliffside dwelling. It is exposed to the Easterly facing ocean and closely adjacent similar cliffside dwelling structures. We have replanned the dwelling, adding external amenity including landscape works and a swimming pool. We have also modified portions of the exterior building envelope including doors and windows, cladding, entries, external decks, facades and pergolas.”

A contemporary home with luxe finishes, clean-lined, beautiful and functional in a stunning but sometimes hostile environment. Pacific House by Alexander and Co.
