when it comes to magazine websites, canadian house & home is my hands-down favorite. they have great home tours, young, vibrant editors, fun blog posts and my all-time favorite: michael penney.
i’ve been following michael’s blog posts for a few months now, each one seemingly getting better and better each week. so naturally when i got a tiny peek of his home i was dying to share it here. so i was thrilled to hear from trish at house & home about his upcoming home tour in this month’s issue! if you’re not near a paper issue, today h&h is launching a gorgeous digital slide show of michael’s home. i’ve chosen my favorite shots above and below, but you can view the full home right here. it’s so pretty i can’t stand it. all that blue and brown. swoon. thanks so much to michael, trish and angus for sharing these shots with us.

I love the thick stripes!! and the painted ceiling is so awesome! I have always loved brown and blue and Michael Penny did it so well!
I want to live in this room!
Those brown and white stripes are awesome.
I agree – the stripes are wonderful! I’ve always liked the idea of striping a focal wall – it’s an inexpensive way to make a room that much more special.
Love the blues and browns! Thanks for the links!
i have been forever dreaming about painting my window trim black…now this has me obsessed with it
this is so fresh and current and i love it
I love that kitchen.
A great use of patterns and textures throughout the house!
I like that striped wall. Reminds me of a Henri Bendel shopping bag!
Blue ceiling with white walls. Why did i not think of this? Lovely.
I am in love with everything about this apartment. Thanks for the inspirations!
Oh my.. look at that kitchen *dies*
BEAUTIFUL! I love that window, and I love that blue ceiling!
so beautiful. i love the brown and white stripes!
I love the striped wall.
the kitchen is so beautiful here. all these kitchen tools exposed are so easy to use if somebody loves to cook. great post.
Innovative way to keep kitchen tools and easy to use i like it very much.
Oh my goodness, when I found out Michael Penney would be featured on DS I was so excited! Not only is he a fellow Canadian, he has great taste and most of all, always has great budget friendly tips and design ideas.
Yay for Canadian House & Home! :)
Love the magazine. I really love his blog and am so jealous that I don’t live closer to his new brick and mortar shop! His style most closely resembles my own and I find it so inspiring. I wish I could afford to hire him to decorate my house here in San Francisco… in any case, really glad to see his work featured on Design*Sponge.
