Welcome

COME BE A PART OF SOMETHING SPECIAL.

ON THE COVER This home was inspired by the work of English designer David Hicks, who brought his British eclecticism to the U.S. by curating Manhattan apartments in the 1960s.

for a complete makeover, but just want to freshen up your home, one way to upgrade is by adding vibrant, bold wallpaper. So we spoke to design experts from around the U.S. on how best to incorporate fresh and colorful prints throughout your home—without overdoing it. Spring isn’t only the best season for revamping, it’s also the most popular season for home buying. If you’re diving into the market—and maybe looking for something a little eccentric—we’re highlighting five luxury estates that come with amenity-filled barns made for entertaining. (“Party animals” optional.) Lastly, we’ll share sake recipes from top U.S. mixologists and, for the auto enthusiasts, visit shops that modernize and rebuild classic cars. Whether it’s your living room, your cocktail, or your 1960s Mercedes, this issue is all about keeping life fresh. Also, I recommend enjoying this issue with your afternoon tea. Cheers. ■

When you get bored with your surroundings, maybe you need to look overseas for inspiration. And that’s what some Americans are doing when they fancy a spruce-up, bringing British design and style from across the pond to upgrade their homes from pedestrian to posh. So for Mansion Global Experience Luxury’s spring issue, a time where many are looking for a home redesign, we focus on this latest British invasion, whether inspired by shows like Bridgerton or just a love of all things classically English. Many of the elements of British decor echo other design trends—be it maximalism, mixing fabrics and patterns, or “cottagecore”—that grew more appealing during the pandemic, Courtnay Tartt Elias, principal and creative director at Creative Tonic, tells us. “Maybe for the first time in a long time, Americans were home and realized that they didn’t want these sterile environments,” she says in our cover story.

It’s Je ne sais quoi. Inexplicable. Indefinable. Ineffable. All words used to describe something that’s difficult to put into words, so... maybe it’s time you come see it for yourself .

British Design Invasion

Americans are going wild for the U.K.’s layered, lived-in look

BY TRACY KALER

F rom fashion to pop culture, America's obsession with the U.K. lifestyle is skyrocket- ing. Perhaps the lavish sets on the Bridgerton TV show are sparking the wave of English design on U.S. soil because British home decor is also having a moment. “More and more British designers are settling on American shores with their specific take on the British aes- thetic,” says Rohan Blacker, founder of Pooky.com, a decorative-lighting source based in London. “And their American cousins are embracing the new design style.” Nicole Salvesen, of the London design studio Salvesen Graham, recalls a Colorado project that she and her team completed in 2022 for a British wife and an American husband. “Our British client wanted to inject a bit of British decoration into her Arts and Crafts home,” Salvesen recalls. “The layered, fabric-heavy nature of the interiors she grew up in felt important to her, having lived for a while in a more minimalist

home in California.” The design ended up as a “wonderful collection of art and objects.” Courtnay Tartt Elias, principal and creative director at Creative Tonic, a design company in Houston, says “the British fascination is hitting everyone.” Tartt Elias especially loves the maximalist aspect of English rooms. “It all looks so good together,” she muses. “The patterns and col- ors and textures and mirrors and antiques. It’s over the top but in a cozy way, like an Elizabethan dress.” America’s affinity for British interiors—whether it’s a country house decked out in “Cottage Core” or a chic pied à terre enveloped in a medley of patterns—has existed for years. But a growing admiration is undeni- able. Tartt Elias believes that people hunkering down during the pandemic could be a reason for the upswing. “Maybe for the first time in a long time, Americans were home and realized that they didn’t want these sterile environments,” she says. “People want their homes to feel warm and cozy and lived in.”

THE PAST INSPIRES THE PRESENT The U.K. has illustrated its architec- tural and design prowess for centu- ries, influencing American homes through styles such as Georgian, Tudor, and Victorian. Furniture, fabrics, and accessories rooted in these same periods continue to grace interiors, conveying Britain’s colorful, creative past.

DEFINING BRITISH DESIGN Blacker says layering color, con- trast, pattern, and texture in British design is a common theme. “While it is impossible to pigeon- hole British design in a single sentence, the general British aesthetic has always been to embrace pattern and print and to combine it in a warm, traditional environment,” he explains. The layers create a “personal, often eccentric and joyous interior.”

orange, and fuchsia, alongside abstract motifs for a groovy-yet- glam aesthetic. “David Hicks’ bold color choices and use of geometric patterns in flooring have undoubtedly influ- enced American design, especially his Hicks’ Hexagon,” Tartt Elias says. “His use of color and mix of antique and modern furnishings, as well as patterned flooring, is quint- essentially British. I love the deeply layered feeling his spaces invoke.”

“My greatest contribution as an interior designer has been to show people how to use bold color mix- tures, how to use patterned carpets, how to light rooms, and how to mix old with new,” the late designer wrote in his 1968 book David Hicks— Living with Taste . A tour de force in the design world, Hicks was the king of blending styles and periods, often incorporating a symphony of vivid colors, such as canary yellow, fiery

“I love the layered look while working with antiques or one-of-a-kind items,” says Maryland designer Kelley Proxmire of English period furniture. “These unique pieces often give the room a special, welcoming, homey look—perhaps a sense of family and history.” William Morris—the British textile designer, artist, and father of the Arts and Crafts movement—was perhaps one of the most influential figures in English design and decoration. Beginning in the 19th century, this period was one of reform, one intended to revamp decorative arts and nurture designers as craftspeople. His timeless patterns reflect vines, leaves, flowers, trees, and animals in English gardens. Venerable textile brand Sanderson & Co. produces William Morris’s archive-inspired work through Morris & Co. Besides textiles, the botanical patterns can be found on bedding, dinnerware, and other home goods. Tartt Elias recently turned to Morris & Co.’s new out- door line to rework her home’s exterior space. “I remain drawn to his interpretation of flora and fauna, whether in small or large patterns,” she explains. “How he repeats the patterns across a fabric or wallpaper is pure artistry.” Fast forward to the 20th century, and numerous British designers influenced America’s home-decor scene. One is English design icon David Hicks, who brought his British eclecticism to the U.S., curating Manhattan apartments in the 1960s.

Pooky.com recently launched its lighting and lampshade collec- tion in the U.S. market, and Little Greene, a paint and wallcovering company based in North Wales, has joined the ranks. David Mottershead, founder and managing director of Little Greene, says the company prepared for two years before its American debut. “We exhibited extensively in the UK and Europe for many years, and there have been consistent requests from U.S. visitors about the

Holland & Sherry, a fabric mill dating to 1836 and supplying couturiers and interior designers. “Even Restoration Hardware has partnered with Holland & Sherry,” she says of the wool-covered pillows now available through the California- based luxury brand. “Their background is in men’s suiting and tailoring—all of the things they’re doing are so hot right now.” Additional British decor brands are making their way across the pond, too.

New Jersey–based designer Sarah Storms, who references English style in her rooms, feels that British design “has a soulfulness” derived from a building’s age, history, and details. But there’s more to capturing the British look. “Typically, there are antiques or vintage pieces alongside a more contemporary item,” she says. “Worn-in leather, rich color palettes and textures, found through plaids and herringbones, echo the aesthet- ics of the traditional haberdashery. This richness is foundational in blending old and new aesthetics for a contemporary approach.” Hicks may have been a genius in mingling styles and periods. However, his spaces were incredibly livable, and that characteristic is universal in British interiors. His work also defied what’s thought of as the British design norm: rooms characterized by only traditional appointments such as chintz fabrics, floral patterns, and elegant antiques; or English country houses marked by paneled walls, skirted tables, and un-kitchens. “Often, British design is thought to be more country in style, but it doesn’t have to be,” Salvesen says. The designer explains that most British homes have been added to, little by little, and like the houses, the decor rarely reflects just one period. “British design is very layered and feels collected over time.” ESSENTIALLY ENGLISH Besides the bones, the furniture layout is the foundation of a room’s decor—and British designers seem to have mastered it.

one might imagine that the interior design wasn’t strategically planned but unfolded spontaneously. “We are less symmetrical and matchy in our designs,” Salvesen says, in compar- ison to Americans. “There is often a piece of art, fabric or piece of furni- ture that is unexpected and throws the perfect nature of the design off to make it feel more authentic.” While Americans have a reputa- tion for seeking immediate gratifi- cation, customarily on a mission to finish a room on schedule, the Brits have a different approach. Along with partner Mary Graham, Salvesen says the duo avoids over-designing houses so their clients can introduce found items in the future. BRITISH ACCOUTERMENTS Any American who’s hired an interior designer likely has British accouterments in their home. US designers source furnishings, textiles, and decorative wares from English manufacturers, and some of the industry’s most treasured products originate in the U.K. For instance, Storms is a fan of Abraham Moon & Sons and Cole & Son; Drake turns to Farrow & Ball and Lewis & Wood; and Proxmire purchases from Osborne & Little, Ben- nison Fabrics, and Vaughan Lighting. Tartt Elias includes Morris & Co. fabrics and wallcoverings in her projects, and she also uses Nina Campbell, Colefax & Fowler, and

availability of our products, along with the regular supply for projects managed by U.S. designers,” Motter- shead says. Similarly, as U.S. designers source furnishings and textiles from British vendors, English design studios mar- ket their brands to U.S. consumers. Salvesen Graham, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, Kit Kemp, and other prom- inent British designers have left an imprint with their unique style, books and product lines. And Ameri- cans are going wild over it all. ■

Maryland designer Kelley Proxmire sees brown furniture as evocative of British design, and she intentionally incorporates it into her English-centric rooms.

“You know you belong and know where to sit,” says Illinois designer Elizabeth Drake. “Part of their success is due to the use of various chairs, not necessarily in pairs—incorporating a place to read, a place to converse, and a place to work at a table.” One can pull up a chair to a conversation group and quickly move the seating from one side of the space to another, tailoring a room for comfort. Proxmire says brown furniture is “synonymous with British design,”

and she intentionally incorporates it into her English-centric rooms. She’s also drawn to antique chinoiserie plates, frames, tables and trays, and larger furniture pieces, including chairs and benches, often dusting the room with one or two, sometimes with a modern edge. “These antiques are included judiciously, not filling the entire room,” she says. “An antique sofa covered in an updated fabric can be smashing.” To step inside an English room,

Illinois designer Elizabeth Drake designed this living room with an English cottage look.

DECATUR, TEXAS Listing Price: $10.95 million

Less than an hour from Dallas, the 25-acre La Casa de Fe, or the House of Faith, is a solar-powered party-event paradise. The main home’s barn-style pool house, set on the edge of a ridge, has hosted many weddings. Perfect for large-scale events, the two-bedroom structure has a bunks loft, a seating area, a games room, and a kitchen. The deck has a lounge space, a hot tub, a fire pit, a patio, a putting green, and a lawn that’s perfect for photo-taking. Expansive retractable glass doors and the infinity-edge pool seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a perfect place for parties. Next door, there’s a guest villa with a gym, a kitchen and a bath- room, an apartment, and an upstairs terrace that overlooks the sports court. The property also has a pond, a henhouse, and a helipad. There’s another barn on the property, according to listing agents Eric Skeen and Pogir Pogir of Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty. It doesn’t hold horses, though; it’s storing recreational vehicles, boats, and toys.

FREDERICKSBURG, TEXAS Listing Price: $14.99 million

The Saloon is the gathering spot for private parties on this nearly 15-acre resort-style estate in a pri- vate community in a Central Texas city renowned for its wineries.

A picture window opens the space to the landscape and a walk-out patio. Listing agent Dennis Kusenberger, broker/owner of RE/MAX Town & Country, points out that if guests tire of these amenities, they can repair to the 7,768-square-foot main resi- dence, which has three bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a wine cellar, a media room, an exterior fireplace, a hot tub, and a patio. For those who want to stay over, there’s a duplex guest house and a four-car garage.

A s luxury estates become amenity-laden entertainment centers that emulate the vacation experience to the max. These barn-like buildings, with their soaring ceilings and expan- sive spaces, provide everything from games rooms and wet bars to apartments for overnight guests who don’t want to leave when the party ends. Some are housed in converted more resort-like, homeown- ers are creating separate

barns. Other versions of these so-called party barns or barn- dominiums, which feature guest rooms, are newly constructed and hew to the traditional form in facade only. But regardless of their architec- tural style or place on the property, these private entertainment venues are becoming the heart and hub of the family compound. Here are five properties, priced at $10 million and higher, that have barns that are the life of the party.

wallpaper designer Milton & King, agrees. He notes a strong interest in murals that create a total immersion effect, particularly jungle patterns. People are frequently using murals to fill large spaces, too. “It’s really like an art installation,” Budd says. “We just did a dining room with a Phillip Jeffries mural all the way around it. The client spent quite a lot on the paper, but it negated the need for other artwork in that room.” Because wallpaper is an invest- ment, it’s wise to look beyond trends and select a look that has longevity. Incorporating statement-making wallpaper isn’t like wearing a bold shirt that can be easily changed, Budd warns. She encourages her clients to consider colors or textures they would like to see in the space and to determine whether the wallpaper will be the focal point or a backdrop. As every space is different, this could call for a simple, solid grasscloth that adds interesting texture or a vibrant floral print that bursts with expression. In addition to textured papers and bold florals, style options are virtually limitless these days, from geomet- ric and animal prints to nearly any design or subject imaginable. Where wallpaper can be used is just as all-encompassing; it is pop- ping up almost anywhere there’s a flat finish. It’s being used above chair rails, board-and-batten, and wain- scoting.

S ocial media, Pinterest boards, and images of eye-popping projects on the internet have normalized risk-taking decor choices. Whereas in the past, people may have been hesitant to hang a large landscape mural in their bed- room or wallpaper their ceiling in a geometric pattern, constant expo- sure to bold, picture-perfect interiors has given people the courage to try out-of-the-box ideas. “People want what they see, and they’re less scared to do what they see a lot of,” says Ali Budd, president and principal designer of Ali Budd Interiors, based in Toronto. “Wallpa- per is an amazing way to add texture, color, pattern, and drama.” While the use of wallpaper with small repeats has been popular, Sara Malek Barney, founder and principal designer of the Austin, Texas–based Bandd/Design, believes there is a growing trend toward using large-scale murals as well as large pattern repeats.

but doesn’t recommend covering the shelves themselves. “Wallpaper isn’t meant to be touched all the time,” she says. “If you’re gliding books in and out, you are going to ruin your paper.” As a starting point, powder rooms are often a popular place to dabble in the use of bold wallpaper. While the limited spaces can handle either small or large prints, they require attention to scale. “Make sure you have enough of a repeat on the paper,” Budd advises. “If the print is so big that you’ll only see swatches of it in different places, make sure whatever you select is

and panels are also popular. Budd recently designed a closet where all the doors were finished in mural paper and a bathroom where all the doors were covered. Capp also has seen a trend toward using wallpaper in unlikely places, such as in wood paneling, at the back of joinery, inside and outside cabinets, and on headboards. “While wallpaper is made for walls, we’re always delighted to see where people are choosing to use it,” he says. Budd supports being creative with placement but has some caveats. For example, she suggests wallpapering behind open shelving
