Morso 7642 wood stove heats up to 1200 sq/ft.

A dramatic transformation in an early 20th century home brought into the new millennium by a young and eclectic owner. A new fireplace adds to the warmth and ambiance to a space filled with warm spice colors and African pieces collected through many travels. The clean face gas burning unit is the Bayport model from Kozy Heat finished with a Beveled front in Rust. The brick is new to the home and is painted white to limit the rustic feel but still maintain it's classic look. A slate hearth and a reclaimed wood mantel from a 100 year old barn compliment the design and anchor the design in tradition.

This Country Farmhouse with attached Barn/Art Studio is set quietly in the woods, embracing the privacy of its location and the efficiency of its design. A combination of Artistic Minds came together to create this fabulous Artist’s retreat with designated Studio Space, a unique Built-In Master Bed, and many other Signature Witt Features. The Outdoor Covered Patio is a perfect get-away and compliment to the uncontained joy the Tuscan-inspired Kitchen provides. Photos by Randall Perry Photography.

Truly unique, this captivating seven-bedroom family home is a visual feast of arresting colours, textures, finishes and striking architecture – fortified by a playful nod to bygone design quirks like the 60s-style sunken seating area.

We really brightened the space up by adding a white shiplap feature wall, a neutral gray paint for the walls and a very bright fireplace surround.

Bright spacious living room with large sectional and cozy fireplace. This contemporary-eclectic living room features cultural patterns, warm rustic woods, slab stone fireplace, vibrant artwork, and unique sculptures. The contrast between traditional wood accents and clean, tailored furnishings creates a surprising balance of urban design and country charm.

A serene Mansion Flat in Chiswick’s Bedford Park has been successfully transformed for its new owner, a successful financier and his partner, a talented television producer and presenter. The sociable couple are lovers of culture and the arts and wished their sitting room to provide a glamorous yet comfortable setting for entertaining guests. They also wished to incorporate Persian elements into the design in a subtle nod to their heritage. Emerging artist Yuliya Martynova's work was used throughout the property with the stunning cloud scene in above the sofa being the piece de la resistance!

This Paradise Valley stunner was a down-to-the-studs renovation. The owner, a successful business woman and owner of Bungalow Scottsdale -- a fabulous furnishings store, had a very clear vision. DW's mission was to re-imagine the 1970's solid block home into a modern and open place for a family of three. The house initially was very compartmentalized including lots of small rooms and too many doors to count. With a mantra of simplify, simplify, simplify, Architect CP Drewett began to look for the hidden order to craft a space that lived well. This residence is a Moroccan world of white topped with classic Morrish patterning and finished with the owner's fabulous taste. The kitchen was established as the home's center to facilitate the owner's heart and swagger for entertaining. The public spaces were reimagined with a focus on hospitality. Practicing great restraint with the architecture set the stage for the owner to showcase objects in space. Her fantastic collection includes a glass-top faux elephant tusk table from the set of the infamous 80's television series, Dallas. It was a joy to create, collaborate, and now celebrate this amazing home. Project Details: Architecture: C.P.
