Spaces that stand the test of time, confidently layering colour, pattern and texture whilst cohesively blending old with new. Unique, bespoke, casual and as comfortable as can be. Loving these rooms designed by London based Maddalena Minerva.

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. MAAP HQ by Clare Cousins Architects.

Santa Anita cabin. Angeles National Forest, California. By Commune Design.
Our intent was to blend a variety of inspirations within the original hundred year old historic cabin. We looked at Swedish and French chalets, Japanese and Shaker design details all through the framework of utility and function. Every bit of space was utilized creating places to stash gear and organize clutter for a weekend trip… All materials and furnishings were transported down a narrow canyon path by pack mule or hand built wheel barrow.
This cabin would be an absolute BLAST to spend a summer holiday. I’d even be game for going all in and using the outhouse 🙂

There is a lot of modern farmhouse style homes making the rounds these days, but this approach with a bit of a minimalism and edginess is doing it for me. Designed by Annie Brahler of EuroTrash.

“The texturised timber screen of Rosewood House sits as the crown jewel amongst a bold composition of strong forms. Referencing the clients’ Japanese and Scandinavian heritage, timber was used as the principal design material. The family home is linked over three levels by a dramatic staircase. Light and views become part of the interior world by situating living areas on the upper floor.”

Nurturing, sculptural, sustainable. A modern family home that embraces the inhabitants with cocooning privacy while celebrating the impressive views beyond. Rosewood House by Madeleine Blanchfield Architects.
