Inspiration - La Bastide de Marie

La Bastide dde Marie Hotel in Menerbes, France

One of my new clients is inspired by the French Farmhouse and she would like to create a modern and eclectic version of this for her home. Researching French Provence-style farmhouse, I came across this hotel via Habitually Chic.

La Bastide de Marie is a hotel in a 18th Century building based in Menerbes, Provence. Surrounded by vineyards and beautiful gardens, I have taken some of the interior influences to inspire this project. Read Habitually Chic's posting on it here and see the Vogue shoot that had actress Marion Collitard posing in this very hotel.

Admiring...Hotel Azucar, Veracruz

Okay - it is the middle of winter and life has been pretty busy so it's just natural to dream about a relaxing hot holiday somewhere away from here, isn't it? Here's the gorgeous Hotel Azucar in Veracruz, Mexico. Just plonk me here and I'd be a happy chappie.

Inspiration - Soho Grand Hotel, New York.

Here is a classic vintage-style bathroom from New York hotel, Soho Grand.
This was sourced via Remodelista who have a 'steal this look' chapter on this bathroom. Check it out here for ways to copy this bathroom for yourself.
Interiors were designed by William Sofield and the cool wallpaper is by New Yorker magazine cartoonist, Saul Steinberg. A nice design collaboration - who would have thought of including a cartoonist into the mix.
