SMALL WONDER

This compact Georgian terraced house now feels big and beautiful and it's all down to designer Sara Ripamonti's use of storage and clever design

HOW DID YOU COME TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT?

The clients found us online on a website of interior designers. We started working with them on floor plans, mood boards and inspiration to understand their taste and likes, and then we did the planning in terms of design.

WHAT WAS THEIR BRIEF?

They sent us a couple of photos of inspiration to show us what they liked. They especially wanted to maximise the space, given that the staircase was in the centre of each floor and was taking up a lot of room. Above all, they wanted a space that felt like home, was cosy but not too cluttered.

HOW INVOLVED WERE THE HOMEOWNERS?

Pretty involved. They liked the process and they like design. We were aligned on the style so it was a pretty straightforward project.
