In the summer bedroom, less is more. Take it from this simple setup, as seen in Reighton Road in London: A Calm, Contemporary Revival of a Victorian Apartment. Here, we uncover matching (and similar) sources: Above: The intentionally simple London bedroom of property developer Pete Monaghan and film and television producer Cherish Perez de Tagle. […]

There can be never too many storage options when you have young children (I have a four-year-old son, so I know whereof I speak). Here is an appealing idea: a wooden hanger that resembles a gymnastics ring, created by Swedish designer Staffan Holm for Danish company Hay. Photography via Design Boom. Above: The Gym Hook […]

Cathy and Garrett Poshusta live in a farmhouse in Ellensburg, Washington, and, since 2014, have been chronicling their renovations on their own home and rental properties in their blog, The Grit and Polish. While juggling parenting three young kids, Cathy and Garrett do things like paint their pantry cabinets in a weekend. Their can-do comes […]

Recently, we asked London-based designer Cassandra Ellis how she puts a room together. Her answer? It’s like writing a story, “telling the tale of home,” she says. By building up interiors with antique furniture, handmade fabric, and a rotation of ephemera, Cassandra creates personalized spaces. The upstairs bedroom in her former house, a split-level apartment […]

With the start of the new year, there’s nothing we want more than a calm, nearly colorless space. Take this neutral-toned project from Colombe Design, a pre-war flat in Sopot on Poland’s Baltic Coast. The main bedroom features a smart blend of two well-loved Farrow & Ball paint colors, a vintage wicker chair, and layers […]

Architects Emil Humbert and Christophe Poyet knew just the thing to do when charged with turning a tiny, suffocating cabin into something befitting its glamorous French Riviera location: They took inspiration from nautical design, with its emphasis on clever built-ins and streamlined efficiency. Then, they ratcheted up the luxe factor. Check out the tidy and […]

Last year Brooklyn architect Gerry Smith spent 48 hours answering reader questions about his overhaul of a 1910 neoclassical brownstone that “had scarcely been altered in its first 100 years.” (See The Architect Is In: A Brooklyn Brownstone Transformed, with Respect for the original story.) We learned so much about the kitchen that we decided to take […]

If you ask Beata Heuman, the problem with most rooms is that “people lack an imaginative approach.” The same could not be said of the rising star interior designer. Heuman, 37,  is based in London, where she runs her own seven-person firm—in lieu of going to design school, she trained, starting at age 21, in […]

Isla Porter is a fresh out-of-the-box New York kitchen company dedicated to mixing 21st century know-how with age-old cabinetmaking.

We’ve long been fond of Moka & Vanille, a restored farmhouse turned guesthouse located in Heusden-Zolder, a village in the Belgian province of Limburg. Owner (and interior designer) Dorine Cooreman has meticulously overhauled the interior, creating an understated, luxurious sanctuary—custom-designed linens, ceramics by Anja Meeusen of PTZE Porselein, and solid oak pieces from former furniture […]

Ever since we posted on architect Paul West’s Victorian duplex in Stoke Newington, London, we’ve been thinking about the tranquil nature of two-tone white paint and the lasting appeal of modern, back-to-basics design. Here we detail the key elements of the main bedroom from furniture to finishes. Photography courtesy of The Modern House. Above: The bedroom […]

In a 1927 Tudor cottage in Los Angeles’s Bronson Canyon, designers Joelle Kutner and Jesse Rudolph of Ome Dezin updated the interiors while preserving historic elements and an air of1920s Hollywood glamour. The bedroom is accented with pale sage-colored walls and pink textiles, as well as vintage-feeling textures from boucle to fringe. Here, we call […]

Fog Linen founder Yumiko Sekine lives in a three-level house in Tokyo designed in a palette of unfinished concrete, stainless steel, and oak. The first and second floors are intended for friends and staff of Fog Linen (many of the Fog Linen photo shoots happen here as well). Opening out to the garden on the […]

We love quiet minimalist kitchens, but we’re equally enamored with heart-of-the-home kitchens, the kind of space that you can’t imagine without also hearing the cacophony of pots banging, pencils scribbling, and kids running in and out. Phyllis Grant’s Berkeley kitchen—with its open shelving stocked with cooking tools; hard-wearing, no-nonsense building materials; and large butcher-block island […]

Back when we first met Mark Lewis, he had recently left a career as a set and costume designer to open his North London interiors firm. That was several years ago and since then we’ve avidly followed his many adventures, from inventing a historic Hoxton loft out of whole cloth to introducing his own line of […]

A meeting of design minds: UK kitchen specialists Husk has launched a range of bespoke kitchen fronts designed by Remodelista favorite Another Country for either IKEA or UK kitchen supplier Howden’s cabinets.

Swedish painter Emma Bernhard‘s kitchen is much like her art: minimalist, bold, honest, with a fondness for black. Known for her large-scale works featuring evocative black brush strokes, Emma collaborated with Nordiska Kök to design the space, choosing the firm’s streamlined Valchromat cabinets for a sleek look that offsets the natural warmth of the home’s […]

Copenhagen-based Reform, which makes Ikea-compatible kitchen cabinet fronts, is on a roll—they opened a Brooklyn showroom not too long ago and they work with cutting-edge architects like Copenhagen firm Norm. Their latest offering is the UP kitchen, a collaboration between the architects at Lendager Group and Dinesen, using the floor company’s high-quality surplus material. The cabinet fronts […]

Combining striking views of London with 1970s Brutalist architecture (lacking in warmth and personality for some) can pose an interesting design challenge. This English and Italian couple wanted their easily distracted guests to cease thinking of their apartment as a viewing platform; after all, this 29th floor flat in London’s Barbican Center was their home. […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

French design meets Himalayan craftsmanship in Muskhane’s line of soft, plush felted wool rugs, which are warm, durable, and washable. Based in Kathmandu, the French design house Muskhane makes sustainable and fair trade felted wool rugs handcrafted by artisans in the Himalayas using sheep’s wool, water, soap, and natural dyes. Muskhane felt rugs and accessories […]

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 […]

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, […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

When London architects Hackett Holland restored a 19th century farmhouse in North Wales, they took a sustainable, modern approach. But did we mention that there is no electricity (it’s pending)? Jane Hackett and Jonathan Holland have set their sights on achieving global sustainability; the design partners believe that the architecture of the future must be […]

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. […]

For the renovation of their 1890 Victorian townhouse in Park Slope, Brooklyn, the owners turned to firm Frances Mildred for the architectural design and Sheen Murphy of Nune for the interiors. The kitchen is a mix of Ikea inner cabinets (with SemiHandmade Shaker fronts), classic appliances, and finishes from local New York designers like Allied […]

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 […]

Similar to her dolls, Jess Brown’s Pieces collection for women and home possesses a sophisticated blend of rustic simplicity with […]

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: […]

A few years back, I wrote about the off-the-grid guesthouse that architect Greg Dutton, of Midland Architecture, built on his parents’ rural property in Ohio (you can read it here.) Then, he wrote to share news of his next personal project: the renovation of the Columbus, Ohio, home he shares with his wife, Liz, and […]

Last month we told you about seven mattress startup companies aiming to take a bite out of the multibillion-dollar American mattress trade. (See The Sleep Disrupters.) The next industry in the crosshairs? Luxury bedding. The founders of the following six companies noticed that linens tend to fall into two categories: sheets that are cheap in […]
