A lovely Mediterranean home located in the flourishing community of Manhattan Beach, California received a significant renovation by designer, Mandy Graham. The original living quarters were reappointed entirely, creating a renewed dynamic that radiates light and space. The existing windows and central fireplace of the former living room allowed the creation of a new perspective. Graham chose this location for the chef’s kitchen and adjoining dining area. The designer prescribed the same attention to detail within the construction of the bespoke cabinetry as she does throughout the home. The execution of details brought together with plaster, travertine and rustic wood are a testament to the designer’s modern sensibility. Graham embraces traditional architecture and affirms such framework with the modification of thick walls, arches and reclaimed beams. Many of the home’s furnishings are a nod to the designer’s furniture collections which stand in contrast to that of the traditional art and antiques.
Another example of the creativity and bespoke level of detail that continues to draw me to this incredibly talented designer. Photos: Jasper Carlberg.

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 and there’s nowhere more stylish than a design studio. This one is the studio of Murudé in London.

We are so excited to showcase The Lake House! A full home renovation of an original Lake House built in the 1970’s. Located in Canyon Lake, CA. We gutted this house, changed the floorplan to be more functional, raised the ceiling in the kitchen, and wrapped the existing beams in veneer. We designed every square foot of this home, from the four bathrooms, to the two kitchens, the design encompases a cohesive color palette, and exquisite materials. The Lake House is playful, yet sophisticated, with a nod to the original 70’s architecture and vibe.
This home definitively has some mid-century still kicking around but more modern vibes added with this new revival. It is funky, bright and playful and I could not love that living room more – the soaring ceilings and knotty pine walls and that fantastic free-standing fireplace in the centre. Brilliant!!!

The redesign of this 5,000-square-foot Victorian townhouse in West London by Murudé focused on creating a practical yet stylish family home. The clients were looking for a child-friendly space that also included sophisticated areas for entertaining. Boasting impressive ceiling heights, tall sash windows and ornate cornice details, the home offered an excellent foundation. Spanning five levels, it features grand entertaining rooms, a gym and bedrooms. A carefully curated colour palette and understated decor ensure a luxurious yet warm and welcoming atmosphere.
