Architects Dasha Savina, Denis Krasikov, Anastasia Struchkova, and Elena Burakova of Cartelle Design have completely renovated this apartment for a young couple in the historic centre of St Petersburg. The classic chic style combines with strong colours for a contemporary and refined result.
A colonial heritage certainly, but also a piece of magnificent building history high up on a hill in Johannesburg. Annabelle Desfontaines's villa in Westcliff, Johannesburg, was built in 1902 and it is an unspoilt gem with exclusive vintage items from "good old Europe", antiques, oil paintings and fine furniture, that reflect the house's history of living, in the different times of the century.
Α home from the future and a fairy tale house at the same time. The simple geometry of the building, as well as its proximity to nature,
became the inspiration for the minimalist interiors. Light colors,
simple furniture and interesting pictures – this is the harmonious
design recipe for this house.
