One memorable July, I found myself in a friend’s seaside summerhouse just outside of Gothenburg, Sweden. As I stood in the tiny kitchen, surveying the interior, I couldn’t help but admire the efficient use of space throughout the cottage. At this similar summerhouse in Söderfors, walls and wood floors are painted bright white to open […]
Dapur Minggu Ini: Pengubahsuaian Dapur di Bawah Belanjawan oleh Pengarang Buku Masakan Seattle, Aran Goyoaga
It sounds like a unicorn: a renovation completed on schedule and under budget? And not just a little under budget, but a lot. Intrigued? We were, too. Here’s how it happened. The unlikely remodeling story begins with Aran Goyoaga, a Seattle cookbook author (Small Plates and Sweet Treats) and two-time James Beard Award finalist for […]
Curi Gaya Ini: Satu Suite Bilik Tidur Mewah di Antwerp

Sebuah bilik pameran di Itali di mana semuanya diperbuat daripada bahan terbuang
Reclaimed wood may have become a design cliché, but not in the poetic realm of designer Katrin Arens, who specializes in “awakenings” (translation: she takes castoffs—window frames, shutters, doors—and transforms them into furnishings while “maintaining a sense of their past”). Born and raised in Germany, Katrin has spent the past 20 years in Northern Italy, where she lives with her […]

DIY: An Economical Wallpaper Alternative
When we moved into our historical New England home, my four-year-old daughter, Solvi, selected a small corner room as her own. To her, it felt like the coziest space in the big old house. To me, with its dark burgundy walls and stark white trim, it felt oppressive and cold. Something had to be done–and […]
Curi Gaya Ini: Bilik Tidur Mewah di Hotel NoMad Baru di Los Angeles
Some hotels, like the new NoMad Hotel in Los Angeles, feel especially luxe, custom, and maybe a little out of reach for the everyday. That’s why a stay at a great design hotel leaves us wanting to know more: What were those sheets? The paint color? Bedside lights? You can often find us checking tags, […]
Tidur Sejenak Musim Sejuk Panjang: Satu Barisan Barang Tidur Baharu dan Inovatif dari Jepun
The secret to happiness? A good night’s sleep, in our opinion. On our wish list for 2017: a new line of bedding from Japanese collection Rikumo that merges “the naturally absorbent properties of washi paper” with 100 percent cotton. The result is a “superlight, crisp, lightweight sheet that allows air to circulate throughout the fibers, helping you maintain […]
Bacaan Wajib: Inspirasi Pangsapuri Kecil daripada Pereka Dalaman Perancis Marianne Evennou
Interior designer Marianne Evennou, our French doyenne of color, composition, and small-space living, has just published her first book. Un Intérieur à Soi (loose translation: “A Place of One’s Own”) is a compendium of her signature moves—interior windows, exposed beams, duo-toned walls, bonbon box-sized kitchens, and black Bakelite light switches—that dazzle us over and over. […]
Dapur Minggu Ini: Transformasi Enam Minggu di Los Feliz
Natalie Myers’s clients bought their Los Angeles home after it had been renovated on the cheap by a pair of house flippers. The design lovers weren’t enthusiastic about the results, but the house was within their budget, they saw its potential, and they wanted to settle in quickly for the impending arrival of their twins. According to Myers, an LA […]
Sebelum & Selepas: Bilik Tidur Musim Panas yang Lapang di Rumah Ladang Catskills, Ditransformasikan dengan Cat
We’ve been enamored of florist turned writer Lisa Przystup’s pared-back 1800s farmhouse in the Catskills, with its simple bones and tumbleweeds as sculptural decor, ever since we featured it back in July. (See The Catskills Farmhouse of Two Brooklyn Creatives.) Particularly impressive is that Przystup and her husband, Jonathon Linaberry, have done much of the remodeling themselves […]
10 Pilihan: Daya Tarik Luar Biasa Papan Lapis
Does the versatility of plywood have no limit? From boats to furniture; plywood is flexible, inexpensive, easy to use, and reusable. Made from refashioned pieces of wood that have been bound together, forming a building material that is stronger and stiffer than the sum of its parts; plywood came into its own in the 20th […]
“A Hypnotic Optical Effect”: Two Spanish Architects Pattern a 1946 Fisherman’s House in Blue-and-White Checks
Currently surfacing all over, the checkerboard is the motif of the moment: see Trend Alert and Checks, Please. We’ve been admiring the many ways the design classic is being put to fresh use. Case in point: this 1946 dwelling in Valencia, Spain, which originally belonged to the current owner’s grandparents. Tasked with reviving the humble […]
High Road House di London Dihias Semula
We’ve been longtime fans of High Road House, a London hotel and members’ club (it’s part of the Soho House group), so when we noticed that it had recently been overhauled by Alexander Waterworth Interiors, we took note. Located on the site of the historic Fouberts Hotel, in Chiswick, West London, High Road House opened […]
Kabin Luar Jaringan yang Diperhalusi oleh Seorang Pengarah Hollywood oleh Commune Design
Where does Anthony Russo—who co-directed with his brother four Marvel movies, including the second highest-grossing movie of all time, Avengers: Endgame—go to decompress? Into the wilds of Angeles National Forest in the San Gabriel Mountains, where his 1900s cabin awaits with the promise of off-the-grid solitude, Thanos-style. Russo’s stone-clad retreat was originally built as part […]
Dapur Minggu Ini: Dapur Kampung Ikea DIY untuk Dua Kreatif Berlin
When friends offered Nora Eisermann and Laura Muthesius the use of an apartment in a farm village just beyond Berlin, it came with a shared garden and a challenge: Set in an 1880s romantic ruin, the flat hadn’t been occupied for more than a decade and lacked a kitchen. The couple longed for a retreat from Berlin but couldn’t live on […]
Pengubahsuaian Kabin Kreatif Seorang Pereka Muda Australia, Termasuk Kemas Kini Ikea
The term “loving hands at home” is typically applied derisively to crafts projects, but it feels perfect—in nothing but a positive way—for this high-style, DIY cabin remodel. That’s especially true when you know the backstory: Melbourne interior designer Andrea Moore of Studio Moore teamed up with her father, Lindsay Moore, a semi-retired veterinarian with #skillz, […]
A Tale of Two Styles: Proper Victorian on the Outside, Modern Zen on the Inside
Ed and Reema Stanbury are the co-founders of BLOK London, a boutique gym that, according to Vogue U.K., “is not a regular gym; it’s a cool gym.” Its three locations offer cool classes like “Animal Movement” (which “draws on the basics of animal motion”) and “BLOKBreath” (“dedicated to unlocking the benefits of conscious breathing”), alongside […]

Hotel Âme: Rumah Tetamu dan Kafe Minimalis Keluarga di Rotterdam
It was the faceted pink counter tiles that first caught our attention. We also loved the cloud of flowers hovering over the café. And the lime-washed tranquility of the guest rooms with century-old moldings. That was before we learned that Rotterdam’s 14-room Hotel âme is beyond boutique: it’s a mom-and-pop establishment created and run by […]
Dapur Minggu Ini: Dapur Minimalis Terinspirasi Ruang Tamu di Stockholm
We are loving the anti-kitchen kitchen trend we’ve been noticing of late. Instead of installing monolith walls of built-in cabinets and big shiny appliances, some designers are choosing to treat the room more like a living or family room and selecting finishes and furniture-like units to match. A while back, Swedish kitchen company Nordiska Kök […]
Atelier Vime di Brittany: Rumah zaman kanak-kanak abad ke-18 yang dikemas kini dengan penuh kasih sayang
Our story begins in the early 1960s with a hot tip in a doctor’s office: “My father was a dentist in Paris and a patient told him to have a look at this little hamlet lost in the valley—he had heard from his Breton family that the farmer wanted to sell,” Benoît Rauzy tells us. […]

Hidup Berwarna di Tepi London: 8 Petua daripada Ahli Sihir Cat Nicola Harding
Interior designer Nicola Harding approaches remodeling projects with a one-two punch: “The first thing I do is plan the use of space, quite often reorganizing the way parts of the house are used,” she tells us. “Then I assign paint colors. I understand this is different from the way most decorators work, but, for me, […]
Hidup Mewah dalam 675 Kaki Persegi, Edisi Brooklyn
Here are a few of the rules that Jacqueline Schmidt, David Friedlander, and their two young boys live by. 1. Every object has to earn its keep. 2. When not in use, a laptop should be stowed away. 3. Toys go in canvas bins. 4. Give away what you’re not using—and if you introduce something new, get rid of something else. […]
Dapur Minggu Ini: Calamine Pinks di Dapur Loteng yang Dikonversi oleh Plain English
The owner of this Plain English kitchen until recently lived a stone’s throw away, in a farmhouse in rural Suffolk, England, that had been in her husband’s family for nearly a century.

The Dinesen Family House: A Historic Renovation for Danish Design Royalty
Thomas Dinesen doesn’t shy from tradition. He’s the fourth-generation owner of Dinesen, a Danish company that has been specializing in custom wood floors since 1898. In 2004, Thomas and his wife, Heidi, bought a historic Danish longhouse in southern Jutland with the intention of returning it to its former glory. They called on architect Jørgen […]
A Mountain Hotel Fit for Royalty
Sweden’s oldest mountain hotel, the 1,700-acre Fjällnäs Reserve, was built in 1882 as a retreat for Swedish royalty to experience the drama of what Fjällnäs calls “the eight seasons.” The hotel is surrounded by a stark landscape of birch forests and barren mountain peaks; rooms feature slate and scrubbed pine surfaces and are simply outfitted […]

Those of us who have admired Jess Brown’s one-of-a-kind rag dolls will be pleased to find that she has now turned her talents to dressing big girls—and their homes—with the launch of Jess Brown Pieces. Similar to her dolls, Jess Brown’s Pieces collection for women and home possesses a sophisticated blend of rustic simplicity with […]
Is It Worth It? The Lowdown on Luxe Sheets by Sferra
I’ve always believed that, budget allowing, it is better to invest in well-made products. Not only do goods that have been painstakingly crafted from the finest materials bring more “joy,” as Marie Kondo would say, but also they last longer. That said, in every price-to-quality ratio, there is a tipping point where one has to […]
Kitchen of the Week: A Mexico City Makeover in Apple Green
We recently visited Libia Moreno and Enrique Arellano at Utilitario Mexicano, their Mexico City emporium devoted to celebrating humble everyday objects made in their adopted country. After falling in love with their shop, we asked to see where they live. The two—she’s a textile designer, he’s a graphic designer, both originally from Colombia—happened to have […]
Remodeling 101: The U-Shaped Kitchen (Plus 10 Examples)
Ideal for small spaces, U-shaped kitchens (sometimes called C-shaped kitchens) can accommodate only one or two cooks, depending on the width of the U. As its name suggests, this configuration features a horseshoe-shaped work area, with cabinets and counters running around three sides with an open end for access. At its most narrow, it can […]
Curi Gaya Ini: Bilik Tidur Bungalow di Malibu, California
A while back we featured the Native Hotel in Malibu, California, designed by creative agency Folklor, who gave the renovated bungalow hotel a modern Californian look. Case in point: the guest bedrooms, where midcentury lighting and overdyed vintage rugs stand out against an off-white backdrop. Here, we’ve re-created the look with the bedroom’s key elements. Above: […]
