French contemporary set against an elegant period backdrop' was the owner's vision for her beautiful Victorian townhouse. She came to us as that's pretty much our signature style and there was an instant rapport,' says interior designer Chelsea Dixon, who, with her team, runs VADA Collective. The owner, a 'single, no kids' west London lawyer, had seen 'the kitchen of her dreams' in Chelsea's own home on Livingete's social media. She got in touch and we were straight away on the same page and the rest is history,' says Chelsea.
