A Mediterranean family home renovation in Jávea, Spain. Originally purchased by Selway’s grandparents in the 1970s, the Apartment has long served as a family retreat, with the renovation focused on preserving its retro character while introducing a more considered and layered interior. Stelly Selway embraced the home’s original charm, combining 1970s references with subtle English influences through striped textiles, soft furnishings and curated details. A deep-blue mosaic bathroom introduces a bold, high-contrast moment, while an original 1970’s modular sofa and rattan bar define the living space, balancing comfort with a relaxed coastal sensibility. Artworks by Selway and her family are displayed throughout, bringing a personal and generational narrative into the interiors. The result is a highly expressive home that balances nostalgia, craftsmanship and a distinctly Mediterranean way of living.
