Given the scale and unique shape of the space, several key pieces were custom-designed and manufactured. The coffee table, created from scratch in collaboration with a trusted Portuguese manufacturer, consists of three fluid-form tables in bronze finish—two with bronze mirror tops and one with a pre-selected pink and white marble top. All tables feature hammered bronze edging, perfectly positioned in the centre of the large curved sofa, with custom lighting suspended above. Another bespoke element is the rug, also produced in Portugal. Its design was tailored to the room’s unusual shape, incorporating the coral-pink tones of the space and echoing the ceiling’s unique stepped detail. This thoughtful, fully custom approach ensures each piece complements the architecture while enhancing the room’s overall cohesion and elegance.

This Wimbledon family home we have been designing and building in phases over 4 years. After completing the upstairs bathrooms, we set to work on the main kitchen/living area. With architectural input this new space is now filled with light, thanks to the large 3m x 3m skylight above the seating area. The limestone diagonal flooring was inspired by a well worn Caribbean villa that brings great joy to this family. An earthy masculine colour palette grounds the scheme, with a reading area for the adult members of the team.

Originally, this room was an oversized, dark dining space, completely closed off from the kitchen. Working closely with the clients, we reimagined it as a versatile function space, suitable for family gatherings and events. To open up the layout, we demolished the wall separating the kitchen and the new function area, installing custom bi-fold glass doors to maintain flexibility. Existing doors to the garden room were enhanced with a bespoke panel system for a seamless, cohesive look. We also reconfigured the windows, removing the old frames and the central dividing wall, replacing them with full-width glazing that frames a beautiful side garden view and floods the space with natural light. The result is a bright, welcoming room that balances functionality with modern design.
