The homeowners’ love of the outdoors flows throughout their home, through the exquisite diptych landscapes painted by Jane Rist, end tables artistically crafted from solid slabs of petrified wood, and the enchanting sea-blue of the stoneware bowls by Emma Hiles. The most striking connection of all being the vibrant natural light and views of the passing clouds above the large rectangular roof lanterns. Descending gracefully from one of the roof lanterns are delicate glass droplets that twinkle melodically in the breeze that moves gently through the automatic roof vents. Enabling warm air to escape in the summer months and alleviating heat build-up.

This home was inspired by Balinese architecture to extent that the roof and floor tiles were imported from Indonesia, and the speical ceiling fans are made of rattan. The living room is a juxtaposition of contemporary and traditonal, and pieces were gathered and placed from existing furniture and accessories from the clients extensive travels, and newly specified pieces. Donna chose a limited palette of colour and added further interest and intrique by mixing sheen levels, and by layering pattern and texture. The living room is full of large potted plants, and lush tropical greenery reminiscent of Bali can be seen from all the windows. A glimpse of the master bedroom draws your eye to the a separate annex accessed by a private corridor.

We inherited the planning permission from another team. Then we helped our client and his building team to adapt it for construction. It was actually quite challenging as it is not your usual new build. This stylish open-plan kitchen and living area feels bright and expressive thanks to a large frameless skylight that brings in tree-filtered light and adds real vertical drama. A deep green velvet L-shaped sofa with blush pink and patterned cushions defines the lounge zone, softened by a pale rug and grounded by a striking natural wood slab coffee table. The far wall is full of personality: a wall-mounted acoustic guitar, playful graphic art, and a skateboard deck create a laid-back, creative energy. Below, a black media console and open vinyl storage unit showcase an impressive record collection, giving this space a cool, music-loving identity. To the left, a bold abstract artwork in rich blue and yellow sits above a record player and more vinyls — layered textures and colour everywhere you look. A projector hints at cozy movie nights, while the hanging feature light bulbs above the timber dining table add warmth and visual rhythm to the space. On the right, sleek handleless cabinetry conceals the kitchen appliances, keeping the design calm and uninterrupted. A large window adds cross-lighting and frames the brick exterior beyond, subtly reminding you you’re still in central London. This gorgeous small newly built house had to fit in within its historic surroundings, both with its materials but also scale and rather unusual shape. The start on-site happened in April 2021 and the building was finally completed in late 2022.

We were very fortunate to collaborate with Janice who runs the Instagram account @ourhomeonthefold. Janice was on the look out for a new media wall fire and we provided our NERO 1500 1.5m wide electric fire with our REAL log fuel bed. Her husband got to work and but their own customer media wall to suit their space.

We worked very closely with our clients to help them realise their vision for a new home that reflected how they wanted to live as a family, and would be low maintenance and safe for their children. A large first floor terrace with glass doors and balustrades connects with the kitchen and dining area, creating the indoor-outdoor space they were seeking. The interior of the house is bright and modern, with a high standard of finishes and detailing throughout. A corner window in the sitting room provides a dramatic focus and gives a sense of light and space, further complemented by the vaulted ceiling. The design and materials were selected to integrate the new house with its surroundings and the finished building incorporates underfloor heating, an air source heat pump and solar panels for hot water.
