YES, I KNOW, I introduced my new design aesthetic recently, only to change back less than a week later, but this time, I think it will take. It's not exactly White Chocolate Minimalism, but it's definitely as serene and calming, yet with enough charming details and flourishes (ceiling beams, crown moulding) to keep things from becoming too austere. There seems to be quite a bit of blacks, browns, and dark, rich woods in this iteration, but it feels earthy and not oppressive...
MONTREAL - We first came across the Old Montreal (Vieux-Montréal) apartment of Lauren MacLean (@livingbylo) on the Apartment Therapy Instagram page and immediately fell in love with its impossible chicness. MacLean, who has "always been very passionate about interior design and beautiful spaces" works in the corporate world by day, using decorating as a creative outlet. "I believe your surroundings can really influence your state of mind so I try to create spaces that are not only visually attractive, but also carry a peaceful energy, paying attention to all the senses" she says. Her Montreal home, which has all the charm of a Paris apartment with its crown moulding and boiserie, a stone fireplace and herringbone floors, floor-to-ceiling windows and floods of light, also has a surprise back terrace filled with white trelliage and a myriad plants...
If you’re a longtime reader, you’ll know about our love for ornate austerity — spaces that are minimalist but not altogether cold and modern, but warm and with traditional flourishes such as chevron wood flooring, wood panelling, marble and crown moulding. This stunning house in Boston by Steven Harris Architects fits the description perfectly…
SOMETIMES THE BEST PLACES to find inspiring interiors is on the websites of the photographers hired to shoot them. Such is the case with this space shot by Swedish photographer Jesper Florbrant. While am not particularly fond of the rest of the space, this living room, with its pale, pale pink walls, crown mouldings, parquet flooring, deep wall panels and glittering chandelier, is truly inspirational, especially since we're currently in search of the perfect shade of PINK for the master bedroom ...

Three Michelin starred and highly acclaimed by food writers worldwide, Restaurant le Meurice overlooks the Jardin des Tuileries. Inside, there are golden crown mouldings atop elegant marble, gilded chandeliers and extravagantly painted ceilings and walls, and one can not help but be whisked away to a magical place of grandeur and romance, and the taste of forgotten classics . . .
. . . as you know, have been, recently, very much into the notion of ornate austerity, that is, a maximalist’s interpretation of minimalism, and interior designer rose uniacke’s sprawling london home with its rather sparse furnishings, is the embodiment of just that — keeping things simple and in a neutral colour palette, to better showcase the grandeur of the spectacular vaulted ceilings and crown mouldings, crystal chandeliers and sweeping staircases and fireplaces . . .
This instalment of Things We Lovely Lately includes, as always, a collection of beautiful finds from our travels around the internets, including this stunningly serene upstairs bedroom, above, in the home of Rose Uniacke; the most artfully created paper flowers by two British paper flower artists; this season's favourite ad campaigns featuring Emily Ratajkowski for Miu and Miu and Ryan Gosling for Gucci and more⏤here's what has been inspiring us lately ...

THIS WEEK'S At Home With features the Brooklyn home of Somin Yoo (@sominyoo), a designer and ceramicist who lives in the cozy residential Boerum Hill neighbourhood located in the northwestern part of the city. Not only is it a relaxed, homey tree-lined area of brownstones and townhouses, but Yoo's home is every bit as chic a space as you might imagine someone with a Bachelor of Arts in History of Art from Yale might live.
THIS WEEK'S décor inspiration is the Paris apartment of Diego Delgado-Elias, a Peruvian architect who lives in Paris. After ten years working on major hospitality and private projects at large international agencies, Delgado-Elias founded his own agency in Paris in 2014 ...
I HAVE BEEN coming across so many wonderful interiors on Instagram lately: first there was the French country house yesterday morning, and now today, this wonderfully chic Brooklyn apartment belonging to Mallory and David (and their three cats) @reserve_home.
A CLOSE FRIEND recently remarked that she was low on energy, inspiration, everything. I brought it up to P who wondered, Do you think that maybe it's late-stage pandemic? He said that he was reading an article about how when we were in the height of lockdown, we accepted it and could mentally cope, but now that vaccines have been rolled out and it feels like we're nearing the end of lockdown life, we're remembering what life used to be like and it seems so very nearly within reach ...
WHILE WE HAVE many qualms about Airbnb as a business and have never used them personally, if we were ever to make an exception, it would be for this beautiful one-bedroom apartment in Trouville-sur-Mer. Often called just Trouville, this commune is located in the Calvados department in the Normandy region of northwestern France, bordering Deauville, about 200km from Paris ...
