Dear Reader,

Old school charm…

When thinking of a theme for this month’s newsletter, I found myself staring at one of my favourite artworks – an old biology lab poster of a snake, kindly given to me by Paul Middlemiss of Merchant and Found. Hence, we’re celebrating old school charm. We have an interview with Amy Maguire who sources gorgeous objets d’art and antiques for a living in her role as a production designer for TV shows like the Buccaneers (Apple TV) while the shopping edit focuses on our favourite funky antiques. Interior designer Janine Stone dispenses design wisdom, and prepare to be amazed at our roundup of five incredible apartments offering classic concierge service.

OLD SCHOOL COOL

These pieces embody old school cool. We’re coveting these antique finds in Antique Of The Week.

What’s more ‘old school’ than the concierge treatment? Serviced apartments, like the beautiful spaces at Auriens, pictured above, are coming back in a big way – these luxury apartments are our pick of the bunch.

Turn back the clock to 1870s England. Buccaneers Production Designer Amy Maguire tells C&TH how she brought new money America to life and how interiors can tell the story on screen, too – ‘we wanted the women from England to feel invisible against the wallpaper’.

Interior designer Janine Stone shares three of her favourite ‘old school’ projects to date, and tips on how to recreate the look at home.
