BEAUTY: Interior--Lauren Liess

Interior and lifestyle designer Lauren Liess created a stunning villa for a client that blends ancient and modern with organic elements. The result is Tuscan by way of the Tropics. I love the reclaimed Jerusalem stone on the barrel vaulted ceiling in the dining room as well as on the kitchen walls and range hood, and the outrageously large master bathroom which features dark cement-and-waterproof-stucco shower walls.

BEAUTY: Interior--Nicky Dobree

Spinaltermine is a spectacular home located within the Reschio Estate in Umbria, Tuscany. It was recently completely renovated by London interior designer Nicky Dobree. She worked in tandem with architect Benedikt Bolza to create a home that brings together the rustic simplicity of classic Tuscan style with silhouettes and pieces which speak of sophistication and luxury (I love lamps in a kitchen!--and in fact, I have one in my own kitchen right now). It reminds me so much of the villas I have stayed at and seen in Tuscany over the years. There is such a sense of history and a connection to the land in those old stone buildings...
