Best in class: Making an entrance

Architect Pamela Sandler worked with interior designer Elena Letteron of Germain Interiors to create this fairytale arrangement in a lakeside summer home. The beds stand taller than bunk beds you might buy from a furniture shop and were designed to take advantage of the extra ceiling height, so that climbing to the top bunk feels like a real retreat. Painted in Benjamin Moore Dove White, Letteron also used the additional headroom to give each bunk its own reading light.

Best in class: Larder than life

This butterfly-roofed extension by architecture firm Brennan Furlong (brennanfurlong.ie) has a very Californian kitchen. Made of pre-finished, double-layer birch ply, it evokes the halcyon glamour of mid-century modern. Freshflowers, a harlequin set of chairs in off-beat shades, and strip lighting overhead lift the look. Expect to pay from about €15,000 for something similar, says Seamus Furlong.
