Highly personal colour choices helped Andrew and Cara Pazdon make their first house together feel like home

- ALISON GIBB

Cara and Andrew bought their west London home wanting more space for their two cats, Calvin and Grant. 'We had been living very centrally in London,' Cara shares, and although it was great to be able to walk to Buckingham Palace, we knew we wanted a garden.

Cara had spotted the work of interior designer Sean Symington online and immediately fell in love with an image of his cockapoo on a coral sofa. 'I love coral and realised he was the designer for us,' she laughs. We engaged him sharply after we moved in as we quickly realised we had too many ideas and needed a professional to focus them, Andrew says.
