It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on the weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Café Petriole by DUELLE.

This decoration project was for a repeat client with a charming ancient stone cottage in Wiltshire. They had done a renovation on the cottage several years before we met, but always felt that it was lacking in character and energy. So the brief was to bring energy and colour into the house without making any changes that would require building work. Since the house was already fully furnished, we focused on recovering all of the clients’ existing furniture and redecorating the walls. Newly added finishing touches like lamps, shades and cushions brought the schemes together. Looking at the finished house I’m so glad that the clients’ strong happy energy is now reflected in their home.
Designed by Brandon Schubert, this home is imbued with so much charm I can hardly stand it. The colours and all of the lovely vintage patterns are sooooo perfect for this 16th century Wiltshire cottage. Photos: Boz Gagovski.

“A former bedsit, completely overhauled to function as a five bedroom family home across three floors. The client’s brief was ‘relaxed, playful, timeless and colourful’ which could grow as they grew as a family. Working closely with the client, Architect Studio McLeod, and lighting Designer Studio Stileman, we formed a totally new layout which incorporated every functional requirement but with a playful twist.”

Fabulous use of colour, pattern and texture. Layered with antiques and beautiful textiles. A fun, fresh and stylish family home by Natasha Quick.

Vibrant penthouse balancing the iconic with the niche. With a simple brief of ‘as little white as possible‘, we had the pleasure of designing and curating the interiors of a newly built penthouse in a residential building in Kreuzberg. We accompanied the clients when they bought the property during the shell construction phase (right before COVID hit). The colours where consciously used to functionally define the open plan space – the kitchen is bright yellow, the dining area is kept in shades of red and the living room is drenched in green. A more atmospheric, nuanced design was chosen for the private area of the apartment, whereas all corners are carefully curated for a vibrant, lived-in composition. The goal was to create a rhythm of elements that pull interest and spark conversations, while being totally useful and not too precious. Each design decision in this project was taken with a full commitment – there are no half-measures here. And that adds to the joy, thinking of the final effect.
Such fun use of colours here, and I will always be smitten with bright yellow kitchens. That island of yellow tile is such a happy statement. This whole apartment is a statement, with such a wonderful energy. Designed by Studio Bosko.

An exciting project that combined the rarest of rare: an undeveloped parcel on Nantucket plus a client couple accustomed to the spotlight. Add to that a handsome pair of Golden Retrievers and I was smitten! The U.S. Chief of Protocol Rufus Gifford and husband Dr. Stephen deVincent are masters at seamlessly combining their public persona and private world. Creating a home for them needed to convey the same level of integrity, while also being a space that fit their visiting friends and family. On both fronts, the two would not want to turn their beachfront property into the usual preppy Nantucket cottage. Instead, the palette begins with a deep blue layered with simple and honest accents that convey a sense of natural beauty while still being serious— the decorative translation of their politics.
Ken Fulk created a dramatic and moody getaway with this Nantucket home in some not so typical beach colours but did add some subtle elements that tie in to the outdoors. I love how unexpected this is.
