A total living room and dining room makeover on a tight budget. I painted all the walks and woodwork crisp white and installed caramel coloured wool carpet to create a neutral backdrop then added furniture and accessories in soft, light tones to maximise the feeling of space in the small living and dining room.

Light grey wooden sideboards, an electric wood burning stove and enamel light fittings create a country look while a cream L-shaped sofa maximises space in the open plan layout and zones a seating area away from the dining space. A large Jessica Zoob artwork in the dining room, fresh flowers and soft coloured accessories add character.
