Living Room with a Coffered Ceiling, a Vaulted Ceiling and All Types of Wall Treatment Ideas and Designs

This Edwardian house in Redland has been refurbished from top to bottom. The 1970s decor has been replaced with a contemporary and slightly eclectic design concept. The front living room had to be completely rebuilt as the existing layout included a garage. Wall panelling has been added to the walls and the walls have been painted in Farrow and Ball Studio Green to create a timeless yes mysterious atmosphere. The false ceiling has been removed to reveal the original ceiling pattern which has been painted with gold paint. All sash windows have been replaced with timber double glazed sash windows. An in built media wall complements the wall panelling. The interior design is by Ivywell Interiors.

The experience was designed to begin as residents approach the development, we were asked to evoke the Art Deco history of local Paddington Station which starts with a contrast chevron patterned floor leading residents through the entrance. This architectural statement becomes a bold focal point, complementing the scale of the lobbies double height spaces. Brass metal work is layered throughout the space, adding touches of luxury, en-keeping with the development. This starts on entry, announcing ‘Paddington Exchange’ inset within the floor. Subtle and contemporary vertical polished plaster detailing also accentuates the double-height arrival points .

A modern flat roof rear extension with a pitched glass roof to the side. Structural glass fins are cleverly used to support the roof, as opposed to bulky UPVC or aluminium framework. We open planned, not only the kitchen with the side return but also with the original rear reception area to create a wonderful light multifunction living space. The flooring runs flush through from the interior to the courtyard garden enabling both the inside and outside space to work together when weather permits.

Ce projet situé dans les West Hills de Portland incarne l’essence d’un sanctuaire lumineux et apaisant. Avec ses vastes fenêtres offrant des vues imprenables sur la forêt, cette maison se transforme en une véritable retraite perchée au sommet des arbres. Notre objectif était de redonner vie au salon, à l’entrée, à la salle à manger et à la cuisine, des espaces autrefois marqués par des tons de bois rouge foncé et des matériaux lourds. Nous avons opté pour une palette de couleurs douce et harmonieuse, mêlant gris clair, bleu charbon, tissus aux nuances rosées et bois clair aux tons froids. Le point central de la transformation est la métamorphose d’un mur nu orné d’une cheminée simple et de petites fenêtres. Désormais, il se dresse un meuble intégré du sol au plafond, où fonctionnalité et esthétique s’entrelacent. Cette pièce maîtresse comprend des étagères éclairées, des placards sur mesure, une grande cheminée en bois clair, des fenêtres encadrées, un miroir encastré et une décoration mettant en valeur les voyages et la spiritualité des propriétaires. Chaque espace est pensé pour allier praticité et élégance grâce à des meubles intégrés parfaitement coordonnés. Dans la cuisine et la salle à manger, le marbre blanc et noir crée un contraste raffiné qui s’harmonise avec les tons frais de l’ensemble, tout en ajoutant une touche de caractère. Le résultat est une maison baignée de lumière, mêlant sophistication moderne et chaleur personnelle, un véritable havre de paix perché dans la canopée des arbres.
