A Palace Gallery and Home
A newly restored 15th century palace in the province of Girona, Spain, is now an art gallery and weekend home. Called the Palau de Casavells, the restoration by partners Jacobo Valenti and Luis Sendino took four years — with stunning results. Furnished with antiques, mid century classics and a revolving array of contemporary art and photography, it's a truly beautiful space bridging old and new. More here on The D Pages.

A Minimalist Loft
This beautiful minimalist loft in the Tribeca area of New York is pretty much perfection. The home of Danish-born designer Søren Rose, its austere beauty allows the original architecture and furnishings to really be appreciated — not to mention the glorious natural light that floods the entire space. Love.

Debra over at DustJacket Attic was admiring these images from B&B Italia's catalogue — and I was so smitten in turn that I had to share them here with you. Stunning.

Fresh in Helsinki
The historic 1928 Helsinki apartment of designer and architect Joanna Laajisto and photographer Mikko Ryhänen was an opportunity for them to truly make it exactly how they wanted it for their family. Carefully restored to leave it as untouched as possible, it's now a great relaxed space of modern pieces against a traditional background. More here on Living Corriere.
