A couple of summers ago I featured a home designed by Cameron Ruppert and the post was titled ‘Maximalism with colour and pattern‘. It was bold and I was smitten. And then I saw this latest project by Cameron and my mind is BLOWN. I wish I could be this creative and ballsy with colour and pattern but it really takes a special talent and confidence to come up with combinations like this and it be THIS GOOD.

Nothing tugs at my heart strings more than a home that looks lived in, that has maintained original architectural details worthy of another 100 years of adoration. This 1920’s hacienda-style house in Pasadena, California is home to designer Todd Nickey of Nickey Kehoe (and once was the home of his husband’s grandparents). It is filled with character and whimsy and has such a cozy, welcoming quality. I could not love this more.

Meikle Wartle Manor is a 12th century castle located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is stunning inside and out, with some questionable decor but not bad all around. It features 8 bedrooms (4 with ensuites), a walled garden and is available as a holiday let here. I’d love to get my hands on this one to decorate to my heart’s content. 🙂

Historic estate with elegant Georgian house only 18 miles from central London. The property provides complete privacy, is walled on all sides with a stone balustrade facing east allowing wonderful views over paddocks and horses, trees and over 3 acres of immaculate lawns and woods. The main house has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, an exceptional, marble-floored entrance hall with octagonal drawing room (original mid 1700’s marble fireplace and cornice) dining room and library leading from it. There is a south-facing terrace with doors from the dining room and library. A bright picture-hung corridor leads to the kitchen and back entrance. There is a stunning indoor swimming pool. There are three flats in the adjacent outbuildings available for a variety of purposes including crew accommodation (6 people, two twin, 1 double, 1 single).

Dream home alert! Beautiful, big Georgian/Victorian country house set in 140 acres of parkland with formal gardens, a valley garden with rare rhododendron trees and two large lakes. The house’s X-factor is a large, bright and unique Victorian conservatory with 80 year old camellia trees planted within it. Located in Kent.
