This property was rented for a period of time, and needed to be smartened up throughout before selling. We gave it a paint throughout, using colours which highlighted it features and worked well in the natural light of the room. We then furnished the property so potential buyers could visualise the space.
This Property was taken on after Tenants had left it in a really bad state. Within a month, all the items left in the property and in the garage were cleared. The carpet was pulled up and the property scrubbed. It was then painted throughout in a fresh pallet of colours, a modern grey twist carpet was laid throughout and then we furnished the property for the Owner to put on the market for sale. This property was sold within just 5 days.
Firstly, the old cottage kitchen was ripped out and stripped back to its’ walls before rebuilding. The space was not large, so we redesigned it using every trick of an Interior Designer to make it appear larger, including two tone cabinetry, plain doors and slim hidden handles, built-in appliances and used a similar colour throughout to give the illusion of space. Storage was maximised with higher cupboards, shelving replaced the original cupboards, which was made from the original oak kitchen top. This works well in an Industrial style kitchen, along with a handmade continuous concrete worktop, beautiful on-trend grunge tiles, and bespoke steel for the breakfast bar and the shelving. A large industrial sink was installed to easily soak and wash every kitchen necessity!
We turned this ensuite into a calming zen-like space. Tiling the entire area with a gentle shimmering tile was installed in the main areas to bounce light around the room. A stunning long wood effect tile runs down the back of the shower wall and across the floor. The vanity was chosen for the area it was to be installed, to give it an aesthetically pleasing look. We finished with a large mirror to open the space up and give maximum light.
This lounge had a Mediterranean vibe to it, but the Client was looking for something more calming. The Client having travelled the world, we decided to design a room with that scheme in mind, where she could incorporate her own furnishings and travel souvenirs. Using the soothing colours of Farrow & Ball’s Treron and Jitney to create a relaxing space. Items were sourced from as far as Germany to get the look just as we wanted.
This Clients new home had a long slim lounge which wasn’t functioning well for a family, and needed more storage. The dining area was given a statement wallpaper and we chose colours to work with it as well as opening up the space. We used a teal paint to define the areas and make the room look less long and slim. We sourced a long bench seat for the dining table which now provides plenty of storage, along with other clever storage solutions through the room and the entrance hall.
It is time to update your child’s room when they still like cars but now need something a bit more grown up. Working on my young Clients’ favourite colour, Orange, we decided on a grey and white scheme. His brief was also for some privacy, which led us to build a dressing area in the middle of the room, dividing it off from the sleeping area and his study area. We used a couple of slim IKEA PAX wardrobes which fit into the space and then we customised it to fit within the sloped ceiling. Boarding and painting the back to become the bedroom area. We painted the walls with grey blocks to give it some interest.

My 12 year old Client still likes Star Wars and Lego, so the brief was to still incorporate these, but more suitable for the approaching teenage years. We chose a deep Sapphire Blue for part of one wall to set the theme of Star Wars with a lighter warm sky blue above and on the remaining walls. This colour then carried through into the adjoining Study. ( see Gallery photos below). We added a Planet style light and Ikea EKET units for storage, with display boxes above to display items used more often. An orange blind and side table was matched up with the art pieces to bring the look together.

The entrance door on this 1950s home was pushed out to make the little lobby a much larger entrance space to house a console table, mirror and lamp. The original WC off the hallway had been transformed into a large storage cupboard to house every outside coat, shoe and bag. After moving the door, the ground was levelled and a concrete-look hard wearing vinyl floor laid. The stair carpet and landing was replaced with a soft grey 80/20 wool carpet and the walls painted with a F&B colour match by Johnstons. Lastly, an ultra modern hand rail was installed and mirror and artwork hung.
