The client’s brief was to design this bedroom for a young girl to last through to her teenage years, and beyond. Long and slim it was a tricky shape to work with, so to maximise on the space we designed it so that it has three designated zones, the far end for sleeping, the middle area with a writing desk, and the area by the door for storage and clothes.
I love the timeless soft blue scrolling fern fabric from Soane Britain, and Edward Bulmer’s French Blue on the bookcase, for books and belongings, which is both pretty and practical. With her love of elephants we incorporated this gorgeous elephant bedspread from Sarah K Designs, and the drawing by Jazzy Westinghouse.
The scalloped headboard was the client’s own, and reupholstered in Fermoie star fabric, with a raspberry pink cord at the edge. The cushions were made from Vaughan and piped in feminine hot pink. Such a gorgeous space to get cosy at bedtime.
