Our clients & their 2 teenage kids had long outgrown the tiny kitchen of their 5 bed Victorian home, so they asked us to design and put in a planning application for a large side-return extension that would give them a new family space to cook, dine & relax in. The interior needed to be bright & open, cater for plenty of concealed storage, also house a walk-in washing room & guest WC. Practicalities aside, the style had to be just the right side of glamorous. So we zoned off the open space using pastel paint colour, multi-floral wallpaper, staggered ceiling heights & moody wall lighting to define areas and alter the feel of each functional space. The kitchen is custom built and hand-painted, with Arabescato marble worktops, aged brass detailing, and reeded & hand-blown glass elements that lend an elevated and luxurious feel to the interior...even the guest WC has leopard print wallpaper in it! For the exterior, we designed a courtyard garden with overspilling perimeter planting beds and brickwork paving to give a tranquil, rural feel to this urban terraced home.
