Bathroom. My Monday morning has officially been made, thanks to interior designers Nicole Maier and Crys Olig, the principals of Threshold Goods & Design based out of San Francisco and Boston, as well as the kitchen, bar and bathroom designer Jessica Snyder Betts at Roomscapes Luxury Design Center! I'm just loving how bright and crisp this Bedford, Massachusetts home is, with loads of texture, pops of perfectly placed color and comfy areas that beg for relaxing! The peacock-blue grasscloth wallcovering and the great built-in hutch are especially fabulous! You can finish your tour with more photos by Dan Cutrona right over here! Love turquoise?

Beautiful French Country House. Presumably the workplace of an artist and the home of a creative soul, this beautiful French country house is a treat for those with a keen eye. Or those who enjoy the revitalizing mix of nature and the human mind. Cocooned in natural surroundings, this house has a rustic, pristine and a raw feel to it. Semi-clad in luxury, this French cottage is a dream home for many. With the option of working indoors and outdoors, the house inspires vision. A deliberate ancient touch is given to a few items that make the surreal feeling of ‘living in the years long forgotten’ very real. If you come across stunning villas like these which you think need to be featured here at Home-Designing, please mention them in the comments.

Good Design For Living in Small ApartmentsAs people migrate to smaller spaces, good design helps a lot. This is something they figured out in Europe long ago, that if you don't have a lot of horizontal room you can go vertical. Tumidei in Italy makes some of the nicest stuff, like this unit with lots of storage under the bed. This unit just raises the floor high enough for beds to slide under. This one looks a bit clinical, but has two single beds plus a pull-out double bed in between.
When you read in the New York Times that professional couples with children are moving into small one-bedroom apartments in Manhattan and sleeping in closets, perhaps this stuff could be useful. None of this stuff is cheap, nor, as far as I can tell is it available in North America, but there are ideas here that demonstrate how people can share a space and still get a little privacy, a good place to work and a lot of storage in a very small envelope.
