Masculine glamour at Casa Botelho

João Botelho, interior and furniture designer at Casa Botelho based in London, is drawn to masculine glamour, symmetry and to-die-for statement lighting. Even if it means bashing your head frequently on the massive light fixture hanging low over the bed. This is João's glorious four-storey East London townhouse (including a couple of iterations of his living room).

A renovated and modernized 19th century home in France

I am blown away by this 19th century home in France, especially after coming across some before photos. It was completely renovated by architect Sophie Lallias - and you'll see what I mean by completely when you check out the 2 before photos I added to the end of this post. I love all the black in this home, especially the kitchen and I spot one of my favourite dark wallpapers (Amime by Farrow & Ball). And thankfully the beautiful original staircase was maintained. A renovation to be proud of with a mix or original and modern elements.

A black and white kitchen in Sao Paolo

A big thanks to Eunice Fernandes, an interior designer in Sao Paolo, Brazil, for sending us photos of a kitchen she deisgned for a very dear client who is an accomplished cook. She nailed it with the black and white colour scheme, and a wide range of storage - open shelving, a plate/book rack unit, display cabinets behind glass, and always a favourite of mine is a cubby left open within a bank of cabinets for a coffee bar. A gorgeous kitchen!!!

Dark drama

Drama, drama, drama. It's glam, it's lush, it's sophisticated yet theatrical. It's "Trad with a Twist", a dark boudoir with a provocative edge by Jessie D. Miller Design.
