Desire To Inspire

Desire To Inspire


An artist’s guesthouse on Long Island

Posted: 03 Jun 2022 11:01 AM PDT

Our clients live in a charming but small house, so when the opportunity to buy the place next door arrived, they gladly bought the house and dedicated it to hospitality and art. Built in the 1980s, the interiors were filled with elaborate moldings and wallpaper. We simplified the rooms, channeling the spirit of early American architecture with some later Arts and Crafts details. The ground floor rooms are designed for the display of art and for entertaining, with guest rooms upstairs. The decoration reflects the philosophy of Jayne Design Studio: that great design is often a combination of the old and new– or as we often phase it: ancient and modern. We forged a connection between the back hall and the upstairs rooms by cutting a hole in the exterior wall and disguising it with a wardrobe – an ode to the homeowner's fascination with mythology and The Chronicles of Narnia.
Love the bold use of colour, the eclectic vibe and the elements of whimsy throughout.

Colourful Grandmillennial

What do you get when you mix a grandmillennial sensibility with a riot of colour? Not your grandmother’s parlour that’s for sure. Fresh, fun and packed with personality this Dallas home by Meredith Ellis Design celebrates the past but brings it into the present with relaxed, modern family living.

A taste of the sun

Like the golden sun in the bluest of skies, this home on Spain’s Menorca is sunny and bright. If a colour combination could make you smile this one definitely does. From the cheeriest of yellows on the outside to pops of blue, green and coral bouncing off the white walls inside the whole house is fun and fresh. Casa Xaloc by Laplace.

The Silver Lake rental ‘treehouse’ of designer Lauren Piscione

Los Angeles interior designer Lauren Piscione of LP Creative created such a beautiful oasis for herself in this rental home in Silver Lake that sits up in a canopy of leaves. I adore the earthy calm of the space, the casualness, the faux concrete wall, all the vintage fabrics…. (Photos: Michael Clifford)
