While it had been modernized in the 1950s—and there were plastic windows—Jean-Philippe Demeyer (@jpdemeyer )'s Portugal home retained most of its original charm. Dark metal frames have replaced those plastic frames, and poured-concrete flooring now flows between rooms and out across the new terraces used for living and dining all year round—Demeyer and his partners spend three weeks there in the summer, and also visit at Easter and any other time they can snatch a week away.

“I think the reason there’s a lot of color in the house is really because [@abbywambach ] let me be the boss of the colors in the house. I love color. I mean, this house is colorful in more ways than one: There’s children everywhere, there’s dogs everywhere, there’s an ex-husband everywhere. We allowed a lot of color,” says best-selling author @glennondoyle . “But it’s still, like, all earthy colors, so it doesn’t feel like a rainbow. Even though we are big freaking fans of rainbows.” Step inside their family home at our bio link. Photo by @douglasfriedman ; styling by @amykchin ; design by @klinteriors ; words by @arielfoxman .

“The challenge was to take something typical and make it work for our family,” designer Shay Alkalay reflects on the yearslong process, in which they stripped away nearly everything but the front façade (protected under conservation laws). Floors were leveled, a crisp staircase added, and the layout opened up, so that the kids’ messy crafting table now sits within view of the kitchen and living area. Says Yael Mer, “There are four of us and a dog, but it’s all kind of shared.” Tour their 1860s London home at our bio link.

“If I were to have my complete say around this home, I may have chosen less color. But Kate Lester [@klinteriors ] has changed me with some of her choices. I can see what it looks like with some more color.
