Slovenia had been on my list for years, and this summer I finally went to see for myself. What an incredible country.

We were lucky enough to explore a few corners of this verdant corner of the world, moving from Michelin-starred tables to mountain forts and from glassy lake mornings to wartime ridgelines.

A dramatic lightwell and expansive glazed opening create a seamless indoor–outdoor atmosphere in the Drawing Room of our Mallorca project, while the use of locally sourced marés sandstone, long associated with the Balearic Islands, adds a sense of place.

Many of you may already know this, but for those who don’t, my interior design journey began when I moved home from an extended period living overseas, and opened a small boutique on Walton Street in London's Chelsea. What began as a passion for unique treasures and exceptional handmade pieces has evolved into the Katharine Pooley Studio you know today.

Starting with a canvas of grasscloth wallpaper, I selected a palette of tactile materials across our bespoke creations to create the ideal guest bedroom for our top floor at the Holland Park townhouse.

A bespoke headboard and bench mirror each other and form the basis of the sculptural focal point. These are complemented by shagreen bedside tables with brass detailing and alabaster wall lights. A bespoke bedcover by Irish artisan is the perfect finishing touch.

Members of our team travelled to the beautiful city of Verona in Northern Italy recently, to visit some of our supplier workshops and explore all the Veneto region has to offer.

The city layers Roman, medieval, Renaissance, Venetian and contemporary influences across its historic centre, and its topography is defined by the curves of the Adige River. This gives Verona an incredibly distinctive character where its architecture isn’t experienced as isolated structures, but as a sequence of vistas and compositions shaped by the water, the bridges, streets and piazzas.

We were witness to sights such as the Arena di Verona (built in 30AD) for a showing of Nabucco as well as the incredible Villa La Rotunda and Teatro Olimpico by the ever-influential Palladio in Vicenza.

A memorable journey celebrating the perpetual excellence found across Italian design including within our collaborators - Arclinea B&B Italia 🇮🇹

The breathtaking footprint of the Olea Villa- Nestled within a pine forest and overlooking the Balearic Island's crystal-clear turquoise waters, every detail has been considered to create a harmonious relationship between functionality and the surrounding environment.

Thoughtfully landscaped using locally sourced plants and foliage, the garden features 'Birds of Paradise,' rosemary and lemon trees for fragrance and escape, while rechargeable lanterns cast a soft ambient glow as day turns to evening across the multiple alfresco areas.

A teak dining table with a cappuccino dust glass lava top sits alongside neutral-toned dining chairs. Beyond the firepit and lounge area, handcrafted benches in the games space and a pétanque court complete a garden designed for long lunches, slow afternoons and effortless summer evenings.
