Adding a substantial extension at the back of the house added a boot room, and laundry room, as well as a spacious kitchen – dining – living – entertaining space. We chose F&B Inchyra Blue for the kitchen cabinets supplied by Tom Howley, and Phillipe Starck masters bar stools from Kartell in contemporary white as a contrast.
More than ever, clients are choosing to combine hip, contemporary items, with traditional heirloom pieces. Here we’ve retained the client’s own antique chairs, dining table and grandfather clock, which sit so well amongst the modern art, contemporary fabrics and skylight.
We chose Kit Kemp’s cactus design for the curtains, which work beautifully with the kitchen and TV cabinets, tied in with cushions in cactus on the sofa and ochre coloured velvet armchairs. The client’s own contemporary artwork blends with the colour scheme and creates the focal point for the space.
