When designing a client’s home, Tiffany Duggan, founder of Studio Duggan, starts with understanding how they tick. ‘I like to get under the skin of the owners: how they aspire to live, how they imagine spaces to flow, what storage needs they have, how they dream spaces will make them feel, what colour palettes appeal. The bare-bones have to be absolutely right before we start adding the layers,’ she says.
‘With this London build, we were invited to collaborate during the early stages, so we were able to influence architectural details and the spatial design,’ she continues. ‘The brief here was to avoid a soulless, new-build feel – mixing characterful, antique and traditional with touches of sophisticated and contemporary while injecting an element of surprise, hence the basement spa.’
