Small Three Level Apartment

This is a former artist's studio on three levels. Just like a tower, the bedroom is on the top level, underneath, on the ground floor, comes the kitchen and dining room and then the living room is in the basement.



The dining room on the ground floor appears bigger than it actually is, thanks to a large mirror that gives a feeling of openness by reflecting the outside.




The sunken living room is below the original workshop we see right at the top of the stairs. Above the sofa, you can see the kitchen behind the window.





The bedroom is quite small but very bright with light streaming in through the window on the roof.

Northern California Residence

Good morning dear readers. Had a nice weekend? Monday morning. How about touring a two-story stucco English-style manor house? Placed in Northern California, the interiors were designed by Joseph Matzo and Paul Vincent Wiseman, of The Wiseman Group Interior Design.

The furnishings are a multicultural hodgepodge: nineteenth-century English chairs, modern upholstered pieces, matchstick bamboo blinds, ancien régime fauteuils. The walls were dressed in integrally coloured plaster rather than paint, and the maple floors were unevenly stained to give them a blotchy, old effect.




The carpet echoes the living room’s ceiling. The curved lines of the mantel look nice but you cannot display objects on it.


Pale shades, particularly green, are used throughout the house. A Ming vase was made into a lamp. The Fo dogs are 19th century.


The living room’s print helps to bring the garden indoors. A 19th-century English armchair is before a towering walnut fall-front secretary crowned with creamy faience jars.


Beige plaster walls, a celadon carpet and peach and red silk accents make the dining room tranquil,” says the designer. “And the clean lines of the Hepplewhite chairs prevent it from being fussy.”


An antique mantelpiece highlights the family room. “To keep the space from being too formal, we fringed the draperies with hemp,” says Wiseman.


A mixture of French, English and Italian antiques and 19th-century photographs in the master bedroom.


An 18th-century bust of Louis XVI is on the master bedroom’s Louis XVI mantel.

Best of Pottery Barn

Living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. Well of course these photographs are the ones I like best but there are many others so maybe my best is not necessarily your best. However, I do have the feeling that your taste is similar to mine so I guess I'll stop worrying about it now.

Have an excellent Sunday!

Interior Designer Nancy Taylor's Home

Today we'll visit Nancy Taylor's 18th-century Rhode Island farmhouse. Warm and welcoming rooms filled with antiques and reclaimed wood. And to top it off a magnificent garden.



The dressing room includes a vintage chaise as well as a 19th-century English vanity and pieces from Nancy's collection of pokerware. These boxes are decorated with an Arts and Crafts-era technique in which designs were burned into wood, as if with the tip of a red-hot fireplace poker. Pink lusterware brightens the green-vined wallpaper.


The furnishings and accents include '40s French leather armchairs, a framed batik print from Bali, and a flat-weave Peruvian rug. I hesitated before including this photograph because I don't like animals' heads on the walls (nor anywhere else!) but well, other people do. Do you?


The dining area in the kitchen, includes toile-covered banquettes, Indonesian chairs, and a custom English cherrywood table.


Potting area. Enameled-tin graniteware outfits the potting area, which centers around a salvaged soapstone sink.


The master bath features a claw-foot tub that came with the house and a white-painted 19th-century English spool chair with an upholstered seat and arms.


The stairwell was lined with hand-hewn planks from the oldest part of the house. "These are the boards that were carved from the oak trees on the land in 1776," she says. "I left them unpainted, so when I touch the boards I am touching the same wood those colonial farmers touched." She uses the stairwell, which is surrounded by the house's original banister, as an area to display her family photos


In the master bedroom a c. 1840 mahogany Empire-style bed, a late-19th-century mirrored oak chest. A hand-crocheted bedspread, rag rug, and beadboard walls offset the dark wood furniture and ceiling.


Front porch opens to a gorgeous garden.
