25 Beautiful Homes
|August 2024
Bringing a 1970s house bang up to date with modern and period style touches isn't easy, but in designer Tracey Hatch's capable hands it was a total success
HOW DID YOU COME TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT?
The clients hadn't used an interior designer before but came across our website/Instagram and liked our style.
WHAT WAS THE BRIEF? To create a classic, homely interior; somewhere that showcased high-end materials and finishes but still with a welcoming vibe.
DESCRIBE YOUR/THE HOMEOWNER'S STYLE Timeless, adding in beautiful period details such as panelling and cornices, which we love, too.
WHAT WAS YOUR INSPIRATION FOR THE SCHEME? A classic English home with a contemporary edge, as well as a light and airy interior.
