Hi Zoe,

Would you like the desk to have custom print on it? If yes, we may do that :)

Such a great selection of the city's most beloved landmarks but for me, London's bridges well never fail to amaze me. Albert Bridge has got to be my favourite but Tower Bridge most definitely is a strong contender!

Hi. It's difficult to say without knowing exactly what the business requirements are. What flooring is down atm as I would go for large concrete effect tiles to minimise flooring costs? Add rugs for texture plus if you need to work on the floor? I would divide the area so you have a work area and a seating area with kitchenette. Use industriał style dividers or bookcases to split the space. Colours will need to be light for working so maybe a very pale grey or white for walls but use dark blue or charcoal velvet for a sofa with maybe a leather chair. I assume the other end of the room is the same? I would build cupboards with shelves ŵall to ceiling, deep enough to hold fabric ( I might be tempted to paint these in a charcoal though!). Maybe look at a library ladder for reaching the top shelves. I'd buy an enormous old desk in wood and leather, have a look in antique shops for the double style desks. You can buy large vintage filing cabinets for any buttons, threads etc ( there's an antique shop in long melford which sells cabinets and desks if you're close to suffolk!) Use a large pendant light in the seating area with floor lamps but maybe look at the industriał style track lighting for the working area combined with task lights for the desk. You could also add mirrors to bounce the light

For us interior design is about so much more than choosing furniture it is about making sure the human experience is prioritized when we build. Our clients love it minimal, refined and not too cluttered. So for all of us it is about making their life better when they arrive from constant trips.

Hi there! I’d love to hear what you are using the under the stair spaces for. It looks like the bike could fit under the stairs near main entrance comfortably. You then could use the current bike area for the utility i.e. muddy stuff mops and sports equipment. As such you would need to install shelves to add on the storage space. I’d like to agree with Minipie that, if you really love for the bike area to remain as is, as I feel you might, the next best position for the utility is in the basement. The basement offers several advantages as compared to hiving off a space on G.F, especially when you consider the available space which you’d require to store all the stuff you said. I imagine sports equipment for example would need quite a generous area. I like the idea of a cosier retiring area for the library and I would really recommend an alterations for that. As for a pantry usable from the kitchen, options look really limited but I’d know what you think about moving the toilet across to the opposite void area, and then converting the new space to a pantry. It’s both proximal to the kitchen island, and will also not complicate the plumbing process, since you also want to introduce a sink in there. Hope this is useful! If you need more guidance, feel free to drop me a line or check out our site: www.betterspace.co

Here's a good selection, but I haven't checked if there's one in/near London: https://www.ebay.co.uk/b/Steel-Antique-Desks/63569/bn_18190348

I found these too, gorgeous but not in London. Still, might be worth a look: http://www.russelloakandsteel.com/

Hi Zoe, We offer a variety of tables. I suggest our Metal Athol table, With it been a crank table it has adjusted height perfect for art as he can work at it standing or crank it down and work at it sitting. We can also deliver to London.
