We were approached by a young couple who bought a lovely Victorian house in the heart of Dartmouth Park in North London. The house had the great proportions that later Victorian London houses tend to have, but it suffered from one of those late-1990s renovations that really dampened the feeling of the building. The clients encouraged us to use colour and pattern and asked us to maintain an element of traditional without making the house feel like an old-fashioned cottage. I immediately thought of wallpaper and proper 4-poster beds, but pulled the house back into the 21st century by mixing in plenty of more contemporary furnishings, colours and patterns. I hope the result is a house that feels vibrant and unexpected, while at the same time strongly connected to its Victorian roots.
I am completely smitten with this home. The perfect blend of traditional and contemporary. The perfect selection of earthy, warm colours, and the perfect amount of pattern and texture. Designed by Brandon Schubert. Photos: James McDonald

Life is too short to not drench your home in as much drama as you can stand. Boring is for the weak. Sees Design went all out in this Highland Park project in Dallas ,TX. It’s full on drama with wallpaper and murals and the prettiest of colours. Gorgeous!!! Architect: Briggs Architecture & Design; Photos: Douglas Friedman; Styling: Jenny O’Connor.

Vaughan Design & Development recently took on the interior design for a spacious six-bedroom family home in Harpenden in Hertfordshire, England. As a new build, the goal was to add warmth, character and functionality to accommodate the clients’ busy lives with young children. Advocates of colour and playful design, Vaughan also needed practical features like a first-floor laundry, boot room, large playroom and luxurious adult spaces. The studio blended natural materials with layered details, traditional fittings and vibrant elements creating a bright, joyful home tailored to the family’s needs.

Ken Fulk‘s summer residence, “Baxter’s Landing” is a shingled house built around 1880, overlooking the Provincetown harbor. It is a treasure trove of vintage and antique finds, is about as casual and worn as one can crave, and makes me want to find a painted dog portrait to hang at the end of my hallway.

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. Trove store by Studio Tali Roth.
