18 Billeder af turkis, trætonet dagligstue med flisebelagt pejseindramning

This project began with the desire to transform a tired sitting room into a tranquil teal space where the owners could read, relax and sink into super comfy sofas. A key element was replacing the dated 1970s brick fireplace whilst maintaining proportions appropriate to the room. The bespoke solution was a simple oak surround framing tiles glazed with a variety of peacock and opal green colours, creating a striking and contemporary focal point. The curves of the scallop shaped tiles are mirrored in patterns on the soft furnishings as well as decorative paint effects on the walls. A sweeping arch frames a beautiful collection of Sophie Cook's elegant porcelain pieces, the strong colour seeming to draw the end wall closer, helping to balance the room's lengthy proportions. Further shelving in a gradation of teal grabs the eye and provides space for the clients' distinctive collection of ceramics and tulipwood vessels Sumptuous velvet cushions and the Galvin Brothers' handcrafted footstool introduce fresh punches of lime and leaf green to enliven the space whilst the custom made table lamp continues the use of block colour and geometric shape against a backdrop of cool grey tones. The warmer grey of the luxurious wool pile carpet completes the comfortable, calm yet colour rich interior. A real teal treat. Photography: Megan Taylor

Il camino trifacciale è visibile da qualsiasi punto dell'abitazione. Il basamento realizzato in muratura è rivestito in gres effetto pietra, come lo è il pavimento attorno allo stesso, a protezione del pavimento in legno. In alto è possibile invece percepire come il soppalco sia concepito come una estensione dello spazio del soggiorno e come il parapetto in cavi metallici assolva alla sua funzione in modo estremamente discreto.

Dal soppalco è possibile apprezzare il grande ambiente in cui sono stati pensati gli ambienti principali della casa: zona soggiorno con grande divano a L sulla sinistra, sala da pranzo al centro e cucina con isola sulla destra. Tutti nello stesso spazio. Il camino trifacciale è visibile da qualsiasi punto dell'abitazione. Ph. Andrea Pozzi

Il parapetto in cavi metallici tensionati ha anche la funzione strutturale di sostenere il pianerottolo di sbarco della scala. Ph. Andrea Pozzi
