Hi Adrian
Yes it is a water feature. It’s from Primrose.co.uk
We built the surround and added the Scottish cobbles.
Kind regards
Clare

Hi, I was just looking at staircases for a project I am working on and came across the images of your hall and your post. I have read all the good comments but could not resist ... throwing a couple of things into the mix that you could consider (budget permitting) ... Oak Parquet flooring is lovely but sometimes the yellow tones often highlighted with sunlight and age affects the choices we make for the walls and banisters and we fancy a change. Replacing the floor would be expensive, however, a relatively cheap and easy option would be to employ a flooring company to sand your existing wood floors. They basically sand them back and then you can choose from a huge number of tones of wood that you would like them to stain/oil/varnish the floor. (It took my guys a couple of days to complete). With the floor in the tone you love... you can then look at the walls and banisters etc. I would recommend painting your current wood banisters that would offer a new look. You could paint the spindles and varnish/paint the banister in another colour i.e. black etc. I would potentially suggest painting the spindles in the same colour as the ceilings. In the F and B colour palette, they use strong white alongside Elephants breath, skimming stone and Dove Tail. I would paint the spindles/stair woodwork Strong White (estate eggshell) and the ceilings Strong White (matt emulsion). I would use the wallpaper you love on the ground floor in between all the doors for maximum effect and a cohesive look. Wallpaper would not take as much traffic on the ground floor walls as it would on the stairwell and could look fabulous. You would then paint the skirting boards , and door architraves in elephants breath, skimming stone , dove tail etc. (Modern Emulsion) Finally, the stair wall (opposite banisters) could either be painted in the same colour as the architrave/skirtings, or a complimentary colour from the palette (either Elephants breath, skimming stone, elephants breath etc.) (Modern Emulsion) Both options would look great. Modern Emulsion is good to use on the stair wall as you can easily wipe it down. Good luck with your refurb. :-)

Hello! It’s arrived but is being fitted Monday :0) The colour wasn’t quite what I wanted as although it’s not supposed to have any blue in it, if can look blue in some lights. I don’t mind it looking deep navy but sometimes it looks lighter. Will see when it’s all up though as with the worktop on the island and overhang, it will probably just look more black! Bear in mind the company didn’t use actually F&B paints as they mix their own. Definately advises paying for a test door first as they got the colour totally wrong at first (was bright blue!) and it was hard work getting the manufacturers to check it and do it again. They almost didn’t.

Good luck i'm sure whatever you chose will look lovely. To be honest with farrow and ball colours, in my experience, you're best to just go for a colour you like as opposed to trying to find a particular colour. In that they change colour at different times of day and in different lights - it's part of what makes them so beautiful but the problem with that is if you are trying to find a particular colour for all of the time if that makes sense? Without meaning to bore you senseless with downpipe, sometimes it looks more grey, other times more blue, then sometimes even green at times. I like this about it but can imagine it may drive some people mad. Pop your sample in you kitchen and look at it at different times. Hopefully you'll like all the variations and will be on to a winner :)

I like the colour but we have very similar carpet in our lounge and I hate it. It’s being ripped up in a few months. Because of the texture it went to look scruffy very quickly - lots of pulls in it and difficult to clean ☹️ Definitely wouldn’t recommend if you have pets either
