I’ve spend the last two weeks reading Kelly Hoppen’s website. Aside from viewing her alluring interior spaces, I became enthralled with a four part video series entitled Kelly Bears All where she documents the renovation of her most recent home.
Her previous residence was an Victorian schoolhouse turned into a 6,000 square foot home which then Kelly transformed into a 1-bedroom loft space.

 

 

 Notice the repeated use of greenery in the space gives each room life and improves air quality.

“[I] kept it [the loft] for two years, sold it and decided that every two years anywhere I have to recreate my style…,” Kelly explains in her documentary. So she opted for a “proper” traditional Georgian house and planned to make it completely opposite of what it should be.  The renovation lasted roughly 5 months (2 months longer than her usual undertakings) and resulted in the modernized spaces you see below.
