The lounge area achieves a perfect balance of texture, color, and comfort through its thoughtfully chosen furnishings, with particular attention paid to the deep green velvet sofas and burnt orange armchairs. The rich velvet fabric was intentionally selected to contrast with the harder, cooler surface of the tiled flooring. This pairing not only softens the overall feel of the space but also introduces a sense of warmth and luxury, making the lounge inviting and comfortable for guests.
Velvet, with its rich texture and light-reflecting quality, adds depth and elegance, elevating the room’s ambiance. The choice of bold, vibrant colors like deep green and burnt orange for the seating further enhances the sensory experience. These hues draw inspiration from the surrounding tropical botanical wallpaper, creating a cohesive color palette that energises and uplifts the space.
The sofas and chairs are topped with an assortment of mixed pattern luxurious velvet cushions, featuring bright pops of colour and print that echo the tones found in the conservatory dining area. These cushions not only tie the two spaces together visually but also inject a sense of playfulness and vibrancy, bringing the botanical tropical garden theme to life.
At the heart of the seating arrangement are handmade coffee tables, each featuring trays crafted from oakwood that act as perfect hosts for copper candleholders and a copper glass vase. The natural wood tones of the tables harmonise with the hessian grass rugs beneath, further grounding the room in its organic, botanical tropical garden theme.
The grass textures found in the coffee tables and rugs are echoed in the 40 handcrafted grass pendants hanging overhead, creating a sense of continuity and connection throughout the space. This repetition of natural materials, paired with the luxurious softness of velvet, creates a busy yet aesthetically balanced environment that feels lively, cohesive, and beautifully designed.
The vibrant colors, tactile contrasts, and artisanal details of the lounge were deliberately chosen to stimulate the senses, inviting guests to relax and savor the unique beauty of this one-of-a-kind setting. It’s a space designed to motivate and inspire, while providing a luxurious retreat within the botanical tropical garden theme.

Our client wanted a Moroccan tile feature wall behind the hob area in her new kitchen. However she was worried about the likelihood of grout staining and keeping the tiles clean. So we came up with the perfect solution… print a Moroccan tile design on to the reverse side of a single piece of toughened glass shaped to cover the entire wall. Not only is it easy to keep clean but the glass also reflects light and will give the kitchen an even more spacious feel. The result looks fantastic and adds a feature wall to the kitchen.

This project started off as a completely derelict 17th Century pair of agricultural workers dwellings, with no electricity, heating, bathrooms or kitchens. Indeed the roof had caved in and trees were growing through the upper cottage, all also covered in ivy. A full restoration and reconstruction was carried out slowly, incorporating all sorts of architectural pieces gathered at sales and auctions that were period pieces, suitable for this
restored building. The project developed as it went along, with new pieces to incorporate after each sale attended revealed more architectural elements and it became a major labour of love. Now complete, if offers five bedrooms on three levels, a huge kitchen dayroom, sauna, study and a double height lounge overlooking the rolling North Wales countryside and coast in the distance. The Irish Sea can been seen on the left of the huge rock outcrop. Lovely! Photo - Stephen N Samuel RIBA
