marianne Cotterill certainly doesn’t do things by halves. The renowned creative director and Livingetc favourite has been responsible for some of the most memorable shoots you’ll have spotted in these pages over the years and her flamboyant approach naturally spills over into her own home. The spectacular double-fronted pile is a showcase of Marianne’s magpie collector’s eye. Her stylist’s touch is evident throughout – and has resulted in an impactful mix of vintage and modern, flea-market finds and designer items that all hang together and, thanks to its very eclecticism, has stood the test of time. ‘I like beautiful things and they can be 5p or £500,’ she says. ‘I don’t care if something is new or old, chipped or perfect, as long as I like it and it all works together.’
