The unexpected accents of copper, gold and peach work beautifully with the neutral corner sofa suite.

Living Room

The substantial extension on this detached house features these striking art deco style steel French doors. Unlike traditional sliding or bi-fold doors these specialist doors create a cosy feeling within the room whilst allowing a clear view of the garden. Internally the steel beams were dropped below the ceiling to complement the lines of the doors and enhance the structural elements of the room. The parquet flooring added a wonderful contrast of texture and warmth to this large bright space.

This spacious, light-filled family room blends comfort and function with subtle classical touches. A warm palette of soft beige and stone tones creates a calm backdrop for everyday life, while carefully chosen furniture and details add depth and familiarity. The room is cleverly zoned into dining and living areas: on one side, a generous solid oak dining table with benches offers plenty of space for shared meals and gatherings. On the other, a pair of soft cream sofas and a wood-burning stove set into a simple brick-lined fireplace create a cosy, lived-in corner anchored by a neutral rug. The light sage green walls provide gentle contrast to the crisp white cornicing and deep skirting boards, bringing a traditional architectural frame to a modern family lifestyle. Wall-mounted picture lights highlight framed prints, while a circular mirror above the fireplace offers visual symmetry and bounce. Large-format stone-effect floor tiles add a tactile, timeless quality underfoot, while the black-framed door to the left connects the interior seamlessly to the garden beyond, bringing in both light and greenery.

This image showcases a stylish and contemporary living room with a focus on modern design elements. A large, plush sectional sofa upholstered in a light grey fabric serves as the centerpiece of the room, offering ample seating for relaxation and entertaining. The sofa is accented with a mix of textured throw pillows in shades of blue and beige, adding visual interest and comfort to the space. The living room features a minimalist coffee table with a sleek metal frame and a wooden top, providing a functional surface for drinks and decor. A geometric area rug in muted tones anchors the seating area, defining the space and adding warmth to the hardwood floors. On the wall behind the sofa, a series of framed artwork creates a gallery-like display, adding personality and character to the room. The artwork features abstract compositions in complementary colors, enhancing the modern aesthetic of the space. Natural light floods the room through large windows, highlighting the clean lines and contemporary furnishings. The overall design is characterized by its simplicity, sophistication, and attention to detail, creating a welcoming and stylish environment for relaxation and socializing.

The experience was designed to begin as residents approach the development, we were asked to evoke the Art Deco history of local Paddington Station which starts with a contrast chevron patterned floor leading residents through the entrance.

I included parquet flooring when designing the dining and living area in this open plan space. Using a different floor finish to the tiled kitchen helps to create zones without the need for a wall. The bespoke window seat and unit add soft curves to the space, with the soft colours of the wall and bespoke unit blending in with the flooring, allowing the black elements to make a statement and pop.

A cosy living room and eclectic bar area seamlessly merged, through the use of a simple yet effective colour palette and furniture placement. The bar was a bespoke design and placed in such away that the architectural features, which were dividing the room, would be incorporated and therefore no longer be predominant. The period beams, on the walls, were further enhanced by setting them against a contemporary colour, and wallpaper, with the wood element carried through to the new floor and bar.

Everyone loves Christmas and what better time to decorate your home and get you into the festive spirit? I have been called upon on may occasions to help out with design ideas and home Christmas decorations, both inside and out!
