Bunny Turner and Emma Pocock of Turner Pocock had been working on a client’s large estate in Berkshire for a number of years when they were asked to turn their attention to one of the ancillary cottages in the grounds. ‘Our client and her husbands are extraordinary philanthropists and great supporters of Cancer Research UK, and her suggestion was for the house to provide a respite space for recovering cancer patients,’ recounts Bunny. ‘It was such an inspiring idea that we leapt at the chance.’
The project was a gift for a pair who share a passion for punchy colour and patterns. ‘We persuaded the owner that the cottage should be decorated in a joyful way and she let us run with that,’ recalls Emma, adding, ‘We were asked to make the spaces as comfortable as possible, which suited us perfectly; much of the way in which we design is about comfort.’
