If your weekend is hectic, like mine, take a little time to drink in the stillness of this beautiful house by London based architectural and design firm Atelier ChanChan. The repetition of herringbone brickwork, the neutral colour pattern, oak and marble, simplicity of line, the sense of cocooning in a private space. Unwind, relax, restore.
I love this bedroom. The simplicity. The lack of colour. The rumpled cotton bedding. Whatever the hell that is going on in the windows. Via Domino.
You may remember Hilary Robertson's Brooklyn brownstone from the cover of a Living Etc. magazine a while back. I swear this home will be forever etched in my memory as one of my favourites of all time. To my shock I realized we had never featured it in its entirety here. I just had to. It is so damn gorgeous, and almost everything in it is a thrift/flea market/antique market find. So dreamy. So inspirational. (Photos via Hilary's website and Trevor Tondro for the NY Times)
This apartment in Lyon is so gorgeous and subtly elegant. Maison Hand nails Parisian chic each and every time. Neutral palette, luxurious linens, modern classic French furnishings...everything comes together so perfectly. (Previous features here, here and here).
When backyards don't count. When indoor outdoor does. When urban living means stylish small space living. Whenever. A small worker's cottage renovation and extension in Prahan, Melbourne. Link here while it lasts.
