New walnut flooring and white-painted walls provide a contemporary backdrop to our client's collection of mid-century furniture and artworks. Deco touches include the new stepped plaster cornice, pendant lamp and vintage mantelpiece. Photographer: Bruce Hemming

We were taking cues from french country style for the colours and feel of this house. Soft provincial blues with washed reds, and grey or worn wood tones. I love the big new mantelpiece we fitted, and the new french doors with the mullioned windows, keeping it classic but with a fresh twist by painting the woodwork blue. Photographer: Nick George

This project was colourful, had a mix of styles of furniture and created an eclectic space. All of the furniture used was already owned by the client, but I gave them a new lease of life through changing the fabrics. This was a great way to make the space extra special, whilst keeping the price to a minimum.
