Design: Coote & Co Build: Mt Gisborne Homes Kitchen: Connors Kitchens by Design Photography: Lisa Cohen As a space for both family and guests to use when entertaining, the powder room in this Mount Macedon home needed to be both practical and fun. Considering the room’s lack of natural light, designer Charlotte Coote decided to keep the tones dark and moody, pairing high-gloss dark blue painted timber and textural lineal wallpaper with warm nickel tapware from Perrin & Rowe.

This Victorian house is situated in a leafy part of London and had all the ingredients of a beautiful period home but was in need of modernisation. The owners were keen to bring it back to life and extend with a keen eye on the ‘vintage’ feel of found and restored finishes. The side of the closet wing was removed at ground floor level to form full width kitchen and dining spaces. The extension design resembles a glass house with the dining room sitting between the original building spaces and the new extension.

his timeless home was built in 1909 in Seattle’s Capitol Hill historic district. The house features gorgeous architectural details from the turn of the century including sculpted moldings, custom wood cutouts, and hand-made tiles. The kitchen was previously remodeled in a style that departed from the home’s historic period. Each room was thoughtfully curated to ensure aesthetic beauty inspired by the home’s original style. We renovated the kitchen, powder room, and restored the butler’s pantry with period details. Generous casement windows were added in the kitchen that flood the room with sunlight. The kitchen design needed to be functional for a family of eight, so we paid great attention to appliance placement, storage, and flow. The furniture and light fixtures selected throughout the home are simple and elegant, allowing the detailed architectural features to shine.
