Cat Dal Interiors This new build architectural gem required a sensitive approach to balance the strong modernist language with the personal, emotive feel desired by the clients.
Taking inspiration from the California MCM aesthetic, we added bold colour blocking, interesting textiles and patterns, and eclectic lighting to soften the glazing, crisp detailing and linear forms. With a focus on juxtaposition and contrast, we played with the ‘mix’; utilising a blend of new & vintage pieces, differing shapes & textures, and touches of whimsy for a lived in feel.

Luisa Barnes Interior DesignThe living room at this Chiswick Town House was given a refresh with a new sofa, chair, ottoman, side tables, table lamps, floor lamp , cushions and accessories. An existing chair was reupholstered to fit with the new scheme.
Emilie Fournet InteriorsThe blue walls of the living room add a relaxed feel to this room. The many features such as original floor boards, the victorian fireplace, the working shutters and the ornate cornicing and ceiling rose were all restored to their former glory.
McLean QuinlanDesigned in 1805 by renowned architect Sir John Nash, this Grade II listed former coach house in the Devon countryside, sits on a south-facing hill, with uninterrupted views to the River Dart.
Though retaining its classical appeal and proportions, the house had previously been poorly converted and needed significant repair and internal reworking to transform it into a modern and practical family home. The brief – and the challenge – was to achieve this while retaining the essence of Nash’s original design.
We had previously worked with our clients and so we had a good understanding of their needs and requirements. Together, we assessed the features that had first attracted them to the property and advised on which elements would need to be altered or rebuilt.
Preserving and repairing where appropriate, interior spaces were reconfigured and traditional details reinterpreted. Nash’s original building was based on Palladian principals, and we emphasised this further by creating axial views through the building from one side to the other and beyond to the garden.
The work was undertaken in three phases, beginning with the conversion and restoration of the existing building. This was followed by the addition of two unashamedly contemporary elements: to the west, a glazed light-filled living space with views across the garden and, echoing the symmetry of Nash’s original design, an open pergola and pool to the east.
The main staircase was repositioned and redesigned to improve flow and to sit more comfortable with the building’s muted classical aesthetic. Similarly, new panelled and arched door and window linings were designed to accord with the original arched openings of the coach house.
Photographing the property again, twenty years after our conversion, it was interesting to see how once-new additions and changes have long settled into the character of the house. Outside, the stone walls and hard landscaping we added, are softened by time and nature with mosses and ferns. Inside, hardwearing limestone floors and the crafted joinery elements, particularly the staircase, are improving with the patina of wear and time.
Simpson & VoyleThe scale of this reception room, with the beautiful bay window, was designed to feel like a glamorous, luxurious hotel reception room. The black grand piano, placed in the space, with the backdrop of the newly restored Victorian window is the epitome of old meets new. The abundance of original features sing in the space. The room was painted in a warm neutral, introducing a blushy pink velvet bespoke sofa from The Sofa & Chair Company. The dark herringbone floor anchors the space in calm and luxury. Touches of marble from the side table and fireplace add to the sense of period. The huge artwork sat perfectly in the space adding strong colour pops that tie perfectly with the neutral palette.
Angel O'DonnellThe large oval coffee table is made from a high-gloss, cloudy-brown vellum. The puffy, nimbus-like shapes have an ephemeral quality, as if they could evaporate at any moment.
By contrast, two angular lounge chairs have been upholstered in a fabric of equally striking angles.
Richly embroidered curtains mix matte and metallic yarns that play the light beautifully.
These things, combined with the densely textured wallpaper, create a room full of varied surfaces, shapes and patterns.
