The living room was tired and gloomy, sue to the shady aspect of the street. The client wanted the space to have a mid-century feel to it and have less of the children's stuff visible so that the room could feel more sophisticated and relaxing. We made alterations to the fireplace, to simplify the opening around the wood burning stove. We stripped the wallpaper and re-skimmed the walls, removed the old carpet and sanded the original one floorboards, bringing them back to their former glory. We then worked closely with the client to incorporate his vintage mid-century furniture into the room, whilst ensuring the space still complemented the Victorian features of the room. By painting the walls a soft cream, we have brightened up the room, and changing the layout of the space allows the room to feel more open and welcoming. Storage for children's toys was relocated into the kitchen, allowing the living room space to be kept tidier. The mid-century sideboard acts as a TV unit, whilst providing ample storage.

The front room of this 1930s house in Brockley was designed as a cosy retreat from the mess & stress of a whole-house renovation and a young family. Contrasting textures & tones create a playful yet grown up feel. Warm, flat matte walls contrast with the cool, glossy textured grey ceiling. A stunning carved teak Yngve Ekström cabinet hides away the TV, while a deep shaggy rug brings the colour palette together.

Have fun with a room when styling for sale. Dont be afraid to set up the space in a non practical way if it looks lacklustre in photographs from various angles. Play around with ways to make any architectural features shine - after all, that is what buyers are going to actually live with!

The Louis armchair was given a new lease of life with this block printed linen upholstery. The TV was hung on the wall along with the other AV equipment. All the wires are cleverly hidden behind a removable cover painted in the wall colour. Floating bookshelves with LED strip lighting allow for the display of the client's numerous coffee table books Noga Photo Studio
