This space is really inspiring me from the romantic dark billowy drapes, to the wood walls, the white oak floors, to the mouldings on the ceiling.

This closet is so fabulous. I think this looong bench makes it!

Motu Tane is a private island in French Polynesia. It is still so hot here in London, that I am going to imagine being on this tropical island enjoying the heat instead of in central London not enjoying the sticky icky heat. I’m not complaining or anything. The best part is that it is designed by Christian Liaigre. You can rent the private island for $40,000 a night. Enjoy!

Functional use of dark woods to minimize the bright sun. The red chair gives a POP and some energy to the room. The natural abaca rugs add texture. Perfectly complimentary palate of materials.

This might be my favorite spot. I love the brightly colored pillows with the dancing fire in front. I am OBSESSED with Christian Liaigre furniture. This stool is crafted and conceived to fit right into the environment. I would like one for myself!

I’m really in love with this space. It feels very clean and open with expert detailing. I would imagine this home is in Belgium, you?

love how the door reaches all the way to the ceiling, not the mention how lovely the light drapes over the hallway.

i also like how the ceiling is not punctuated with recessed cans everywhere…there is this one simple recessed fixture. the drapes reach the ceiling, adding height to the space.

again, this door detail is so minimal.

these drapes are so romantic in how they puddle to the floor, such a nice juxtaposition to the quiet feeling of the space.

okay, this vanity is gorgeous…but where do you put the hairdryer??

hans wegner chairs.

wood children’s toys are my favorite!

Rees Roberts + Partners are absolute perfection. I love everything they do. I am obsessed.

The texture on the fireplace is out of this world. The color palate is soothing and simple, creamy white walls, bleached wood, soft blues, sandy linens. David Weeks chandelier.

B&B italia chairs. Taraxacum light fixture. Smooth fabric walls….so sooooooft.

I could die in this kitchen. The view…the materials, the cabinetry!

David Weeks light fixture. It’s all so simple but so elegant.

Another David Weeks light fixture and sconces. B&B italia bed…one of my favorites, but you need a ceiling like this! A never ending looooooong clean thin window seat.

This sculptural light fixture is called the 21.50. It is stunning!

An incredible orchestra of modern architecture and modern furnishings. Just gorgeous and loving every bit of it! By Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects in Amagansett, NY.

Gorgeous floor to ceiling Duratherm doors and windows. A simple Boffi kitchen with a Gaggenau cooktop, and vintage Arne Jacobsen barstools from Wyeth. I like the contrast of the hard surface flooring with the wood window/door frames. It bring warmth back into the space.

Vintage Jacobsen side chairs surround a custom-made wood and steel dining table. These fab outdoor sofas are by Sutherland.

This is stunning.

A gorgeous contemporary beachy home in Amagansett by Athena Calderone.

I love it when rectangular paves are inset in grass. Such a lovely pathway.

Perfection as a tub. Boffi?

Some gorgeous minimalism from Travis Walton.

Besides a mountain house, I would love a ranch…dreams do come true. This ranch, owned by Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres is everything one would want in a ranch; rustic, understated, yet fabulously sophisitcated.

Simple mix of materials; leather, linen, stone. The leather chair is a 1962 Fabricius & Kastholm chair. The sofa is upholstered in belgian white linen…my fav!

This 18th-century Spanish wood ring is the perfect piece to finish this room.

This dangling chalkboard is such a fantastic idea. The room is painted in Farrow & Ball’s All White.

This I LOVE! Jean Prouvé, and the table is by Axel Vervoordt. So simple and sophisticated.

Interesting mix here with the  1960 Illum Wikkelso sofa and the Alison Berger floor lamp. 1965 Ib Kofod-Larsen armchair.
