I had to share another pretty as a peach home designed by Sarah Vanrenen. Soft greens and blues and yellows, and abundance of patterns – all so welcoming.
This San Francisco Victorian had a prior life as a somewhat neglected rental unit. Our clients felt compelled to rescue it and make it their Bay Area home base. We were fortunate enough to be asked to collaborate on this project, giving the space new life. Upgrades in the spaces were a must. However, all changes were done with thoughtfulness and with an eye towards not only practical changes, but ensuring a dusting of design magic throughout this new home. Forgoing neutral colors, we went bold and bright throughout. I really love the shades of blue and green and fun wallpapers and tile used in this home designed by Banner Day Interiors.
Like the golden sun in the bluest of skies, this home on Spain’s Menorca is sunny and bright. If a colour combination could make you smile this one definitely does. From the cheeriest of yellows on the outside to pops of blue, green and coral bouncing off the white walls inside the whole house is fun and fresh. Casa Xaloc by Laplace.
I couldn’t end the week without a fabulous kitchen diner from London-based Laura Stephens. A delicious combination of yellow, ochre red and natural wood. The room is light-filled and fun with bags of personality. Favourite spot? The pantry of course. You can see more of this colourful West London Terraced House here.
This 1980’s villa in Saint Clement de Riviere, in the South of France was fully renovated and transformed by Baptiste Bohu Interiors into a hacienda with a mix of Spanish/Mexican architecture and Moroccan elements. In the perfect colour palette of black and white, with a bit of mustard, and lots of wood and rattan it’s a visual feast of earthy goodness in an absolutely stunning setting.
