HOW DID YOU COME TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT?
The clients, a couple with two small children, found me on Instagram. We got on really well and I loved their inspiration for the property.
I started with an architectural review of their extension plans and helped them refine what their architect had suggested, keeping the interiors, flow and function firmly in mind.
WHAT WAS THE BRIEF? To create a home that was modern, warm and inviting and conducive to busy family life. The clients knew that this was not going to be their forever home but still wanted to take a timeless approach to our material selection and invest in furniture they could take with them in the future.
