Popular Scandinavian-style interiors blog 'These Four Walls' has collaborated with Kährs for a scandi-inspired, soft and minimalist living room makeover. Kährs worked with founder Abi Dare to find the perfect hard wearing and stylish floor to work alongside minimalist decor. Kährs' ultra matt 'Oak Sky' engineered wood floor design was the perfect fit. "I was keen on the idea of pale Nordic oak and ordered all sorts of samples, but none seemed quite right – until a package arrived from Swedish brand Kährs, that is. As soon as I took a peek at ‘Oak Sky’ ultra matt lacquered boards I knew they were the right choice – light but not overly so, with a balance of ashen and warmer tones and a beautiful grain. It creates the light, Scandinavian vibe that I love, but it doesn’t look out of place in our Victorian house; it also works brilliantly with the grey walls. I also love the matte finish, which is very hard wearing but has none of the shininess normally associated with lacquer" says Abi. Oak Sky is the lightest oak design from the Kährs Lux collection of one-strip ultra matt lacquer floors. The semi-transparent white stain and light and dark contrasts in the wood makes the floor ideal for a scandi-chic inspired interior. The innovative surface treatment is non-reflective; enhancing the colour of the floor while giving it a silky, yet strong shield against wear and tear. Kährs' Lux collection won 'Best Flooring' at the House Beautiful Awards 2017. Kährs have collaborated with These Four Walls and feature in two blog posts; My soft, minimalist living room makeover reveal and How to choose wooden flooring.

Perhaps it’s because we keep creeping further and further into the future and ingrained in technology, and perhaps it’s because the bathroom is where we refresh ourselves with a nice hot soak or shower, but bringing the outdoors in is all the rage this year. It also makes for some stunning design. Mix it up! Marble and wood flow together for a sleek finish.

As one of the design consultants with Mayflower Construction, I’m usually the first person a new client meets. I show up at their house, view the bathroom or kitchen in question, talk through their ideas, and give my presentation on what it’s like to work with my team. I’m always surprised by how little questions people ask me. To help you on your quest to find the perfect contractor, I’ve thought of basic and thought-provoking questions you should ask your contractor during your first meeting.

You wouldn’t think small rooms do well with large patterns, because they’re so small. But actually that’s what makes them perfect for those loud prints. You know the ones that grab your attention and say something. You’re only papering one wall, so it’s a small enough dose to be able to appreciate and enjoy it without getting overwhelmed by it. In fact, pick an expansive print and it’ll even make your bathroom feel bigger.
