A place for everything
25 Beautiful Homes
|May 2023
By considering the function of each space, Leo Wood has helped design a home that's as practical as it is beautiful
HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT?
The owners are both lawyers, with a son, seven, and daughter, three. They bought the house in 2018 then commissioned architects to create an open-plan kitchen and living space, as well as installing new bathrooms. I was delighted when they shortlisted me to design three living rooms and three bedrooms, after finding my business, Kinder Design (kinderdesign.co.uk) on a platform called Design For Me (designfor-me.com).
WHAT WERE THE HOMEOWNERS' BIGGEST PRIORITIES?
