Holding Court



Designed by David Hicks, this stunning house is set around a central quad garden and lap pool ... inspired by Italian villa architecture, David said "The intention was to provide a rich, layered design that was also streamlined and rationalised."

... light filled, gorgeous and livable in my book!

I just could move into this house, the airy style, the architecture, the design, everything about it appeals to my senses.
Have a great week end!

I'm swooning over this Home, it's perfect in my view, A classic feeling with a modern twist and not over-done. Love the oval bath and the stunning marble in the bathroom. Have a great weekend!
