HOTEL LIBRARY, OXFORD
Contemporary Home Office, Oxfordshire
Sally was asked to design a modern intimate Library space for the exclusive use of guests at the Old Parsonage Hotel.
Sally chose a natural colour scheme for the Library to compliment the honey coloured stone walls which surround the private courtyard terrace outside.
Sally specified unusually high-sided sofas in heavily stone washed olive-grey linens and soft burnt orange cushion is silk velvet to create intimate spaces for guests to relax in privacy. A bleached oak parquet flooring, natural jute rugs and glass sliding doors lead out onto the terrace. Grey–green walls offer a calm backdrop for an interesting collection of specially commissioned Paddy Summerfield’s black and white framed photographs of 1960’s Oxford. Smart library lights in dark bronze create atmospheric lighting for book lined shelves.
