Eva contacted me a while ago with a burning idea in her mind, perfect for a spring project to get stuck into. She’d decided it was high time for her basement living room to realise its full potential, as for too long, it has floundered as little more than functional space in which to watch TV. Like so many living spaces, it had become somewhere taken for granted, devoid of life, character and all the energy and great features that interior design can reveal. ⁠ ⁠ 1. IDEA: Interior Design for Energising Atmosphere in a home renovation⁠ ⁠ Right from the first consultation and all the way through to the final reveal, I was keen to make sure that every detail, every selected artwork, every use of colour and every accessory was meticulously chosen with one factor in mind: this space deserved to reflect Eva’s outgoing personality and creative lifestyle. Now complete, I’m as delighted with the result as she is. The transformation of what was an uninspiring basement living space into an elegant, vibrant room that was not only a functional environment in which to spend time, but a beautiful one capable of elevating everyday living.

The tenants had a billiard table in this huge living room, which was fun for young sharers but not the most practical solution to present the space as a living/dining room suitable for a family. To show its full potential, we presented it as a sitting and dining area, with ample space in between. There is also a separate reading or relaxing area at the very back of the room with some plants and an armchair to sit an enjoy the view into the garden.

The existing property was a Victorian Abrahams First Floor Apartment with 2 bedrooms. The proposal includes a loft extension with two bedrooms and a shower room, a rear first floor roof terrace and a full refurbishment and fit-out. Our role was for a full architectural services including planning, tender, construction oversight. We collaborated with specialist joiners for the interior design during construction. The client wanted to do something special at the property, and the design for the living space manages that by creating a double height space with the eaves space above that would otherwise be dead-space or used for storage. The kitchen is linked to the new terrace and garden as well as the living space creating a great flor to the apartment. The master bedroom looks over the living space with shutters so it can also be closed off. The old elements such as the double height chimney breast and the new elements such as the staircase and mezzanine contrast to give more gravitas to the original features.

We suggested a new layout with comfortable seating, coffee table, side tables and other pieces to create an inviting and functional space. We incorporated luxurious materials such as marble, plush fabrics, wood and brass to convey elegance and sophistication.

Bespoke alcove shelving, with closed cupboards at the bottom maximised storage in this compact living room. Wooden flooring replaced the old damaged floor in a lighter colour, with a pale green for the shelving chosen to enhance the light. The ceiling was pulled down, repaired and replaced. Edward Bulmer paint was chosen for its compatibility with an old building such as this.
