Lovers Walk, Ireland, by Róisín Lafferty

087, Portugal, by Fala Atelier

Fala Atelier is a firm favourite among the Dezeen readership, consistently applauded for its distinctive interior designs. The Porto studio added its trademark oversized spots and stripes to this Lisbon home, which features custom cabinetry and pinewood flooring dotted with geometric walnut accents.

"We tried to diversify the material palette as much as possible while still making it quite banal," explained Fala Atelier partner Filipe Magalhães.

"The choices are very Portuguese, but the mixture aims at being more than just that," added the architect.

Collectors Home, the Netherlands, by DAB Studio

This 1920s Dutch house was renovated to reference the Amsterdam School – a movement from 1910 to 1920 that paid equal attention to the architecture and interior design of a building.

Interiors firm DAB Studio chose an Ettore Sottsass gridded feature wall and a sculptural green ladder for the Amsterdam home, which includes an eclectic selection of vintage and contemporary furniture.

"The interior has a free, creative spirit in which each element can stand on its own and be seen as art," studio co-founder Lotte Bruns told Dezeen.

Sebban and his team chose glossy walls, ruched curtains and poured-in-place resin flooring for the 1970s-style apartment, which was created as "a manifesto of [the Uchronia] universe", explained the founder.
