On The Rise

LIVING ROOM

‘There’s a simple elegance to this central light that suits our aesthetic,’ says Charlotta. A vintage brass wall light strikes an opulent note, while the sofa exudes Seventies low-slung luxury.

DINING ROOM

This Swedish stove is particularly ornate, its liquid-green tiles shining out against a near monochrome palette. The couple mixed up their own paint colour for the woodwork.

Drama reigns here, with an intriguing wallpaper paired with handsome period features. A mid-century floor lamp and an Italian Forties drinks trolley add to the elegant mood.
