A touch of Italian luxury in Moscow, 30's and Michail Bulgakov

Patriarshiye Ponds (Патриаршие пруды) is one of the most exclusive residential areas in downtown Presnensky District of Moscow, Russia. It is confusing why it’s called “Ponds” as for the past 200 years there has been only one pond there, although the name of Tryokhpudny Pereulok 'Three – Pond Lane', suggests that there used to be more.

This ‘moscovian’ downtown area became universally famous, because of how Michail Bulgakov described it in his novel ‘The Master and Margarita’, because not by accident, the writer lived himself in this area, in the 30s.

Here's some luxury home in this area;

I present you, the extraordinary Marianne Evennou


I have a passion for French houses. It is because of how they respect their architectural characteristics, having interiors of perfect harmony, resisting times and trends but always contemporary. Today I will show you some interiors of a French architect, Marianne Evennou.

Some of our favourite interior & exterior designs around the world...

How amazing is the Peacock Room? Built in 1605, this gorgeous room is in an abandoned castle in Tuscany, Italy. The Sammezzano Castle sits on top of a hill in a Tuscan oak tree grove untouched by modern times... 


Wouldn't it be fantastic to have an office with an interior and view like this? 
Beauport Mansion in Gloucester, MA


Damien Langlois -Meurinne 'Shades of blue' living room


The secret garden of Richard Shapiro in the Holmby Hills, LA.


Sometimes you don't need a new painting, rugs or curtains to match your furniture to give the room a new look. A cool idea can do it!

Style your home with the Rendition Homes touch!

Armchairs are quite often a must have item in a lounge room. It is often a cosy reading and relaxing spot but quite often it creates a “balance” in the composition of the lounge room.

Why have one?

There is something cosy about armchairs and they can be moved around during family gatherings and when you have friends over. We would suggest a classic and elegant style like the ones in the picture; this way you will find it easier to create different looks by changing the rug, cushions and the art on the wall.


For those who like to have quality time with their loved ones whilst sharing a meal, the dining table should be spacious and have comfy chairs, and why not, stylish ones too! A long and spacious table enables you to add the extra chair when having guests and comfy/stylish chairs add a little personal touch in your dining room.
 

Beds like this are not only comfier but give that 1800s touch to your bedroom. This detail can be a good mix with a modern bedroom as well as add a little of a detail to a minimal one. Your bedroom will look very stylish if you use different textures and patterns as long as the colour palette is kept under control like in this beautiful rendition homes stylish bedroom.
