WHEN I WAS little, pink was my absolute favourite colour. Although I like to think I’ve grown out of it and now tell people my favourite colour is black (which is true), pink still holds a special place in my heart.
An examination of the loft setting aesthetic that was prominent in late 90s/early 2000s indie and studio films, capturing the bohemian, countercultural experiences of young urbanites. Explores the rise of this gritty, artistic stylistic choice across examples like Garden State and Rent...
WE ARE BACK with our Design History series, and this week, we’re taking a closer look at an essential material in modern manufacturing and construction: stainless steel.
WE RECENTLY wrote about Notting Hill and by coincidence, came across this incredible flat for rent in Blenheim Crescent, right on the doorstep of Portobello Road, which means shopping for antiques at Portobello Market and browsing books at the iconic Notting Hill Bookshop.
WE FOLLOW several real estate pages on Instagram, always interested in seeing what types of places become available around the country, but especially when special ones in London are listed. This Grade II-listed early Georgian townhouse is one of those.
I WROTE about rough-hewn stone sinks in March—about how I was seeing them everywhere—and then recently came across Kyūka House, a wellness retreat in Bridgehampton, NY that also has this feature (scroll down to the bottom).
A NEW YEAR, a fresh start—and storage, office spaces, and other reoganising projects seem to be on everyone’s minds this January. As far as office inspiration goes, we love the look of these calm and collected spaces with their airiness and neutral palettes.

IT'S FUNNY that now we're back in the city, find myself still drawn to cosy cottages, especially stone ones like the one we left, or this one, yellow brick and covered in climbing roses. A four-bedroom manor house built in 1820, this listed cottage is located in Ampleforth, North Yorkshire...
WE’VE HAD this five-bedroom home in Sag Harbor, NY, saved in our folder for ages. Originally built in the 18th century, this weekend retreat with a guest house has been updated for modern comfort. The renovation combines luxurious neutrals with a mix of vintage and custom-designed pieces.
WE WERE CAPTIVATED by this mini house tour on Instagram, showcasing a beautiful ranch in Austin, Texas, designed by the interior firm Light and Dwell. Nestled on a sprawling property with its own lake, peach tree orchard, barns, whiskey room, guest quarters, and a private mile-long entrance, this home is a true oasis.
AS THE Christmas season is upon us, we find ourselves revisiting the perennial debate over holiday decor: should one choose multicolored or white lights to adorn the tree and home?
WE GAVE a small glimpse into the London home of designer Rose Uniacke in November of last year, as well as a look at some of her work the following month. This month, coinciding with the recent release of her latest book, Wallpaper magazine featured more of the designer’s Warwick Square home.
THE INSTAGRAM algorithm seems to think that we love all things Scandinavian at the moment, and perhaps we do. That's how we came across Finnish social media content creator Metti Forssell (@mettiforssell) for this instalment of 10 IMAGES. We hadn't known of her before, but we love her penchant for chubby furniture and boiserie, chevron flooring and chandeliers; coffee and pastries on marble tables, shrimp pasta, bouclé chairs and more...
