This full design and project management commission saw a long-standing family home, untouched for over 30 years, transformed into a serene, sophisticated retreat. The brief was open, with the clients unsure of their direction but certain they wished to stay in the area and refresh their much-loved home.

Through thoughtful conversations, we uncovered their love of travel and distinctive hotels, shaping a design concept that blended warmth, elegance, and worldly charm. The living and dining areas were softened with neutral tones and splashes of mustard yellow, while rich textures - walnut, marble, brass, and blackened metal — added depth and character.

The kitchen was revived with a simple respray of the upper cabinetry in a cool grey, while the cloakroom was completely refitted with new tiles, wallpaper, and contemporary fixtures. Upstairs, each of the four bedrooms was restyled with fresh colour palettes, new furniture, and carefully curated accessories, creating calm, inviting spaces that reflect the family’s story.
