Design Details I Learned & Loved From Our Barcelona Apartment

Have you ever visited somewhere that influenced changed how you think about design?
That’s kind of what happened during my five-week Barcelona getaway. Buzzing Barcelona captured my heart and reinforced my love of cities, just like London did. The medieval alleyways, sunny squares, arty influences, and modern buildings alongside Gaudí’s dreamlike architecture collide to create a place that is historic, modern, endlessly alive, and really quite special.
Our family of four stayed in a gorgeously-designed little rental apartment accessed by stepping off a bustling Barcelona street, and through one of those iconic, massive wooden doors.
The apartment has so many lovely, clever design details that I will bring into projects that I thought I would share them all with you. So, in this weeks’ episode, I’m breaking down the design details I learned and loved for our Barcelona apartment.
Join me inside for a little design masterclass this week, where I’m chatting about taking inspiration from your travels, blending old and new with intention, maintaining those character features, putting together timeless materials palettes, how to use textures well, and how adding just one or two quirks can bring a sense of fun and personality to your space… and a lot more!
This is a bumper episode with nearly 40 minutes of video included (I’m a bit cross-eyed from the editing!), so if you have time, do catch it on You Tube to have a sneaky peek inside and catch some sunny holiday vibes – before the autumn officially hits!
