Brief: To provide a thoughtfully reconfigured living space designed to improve flow, maximise natural light and support relaxed, everyday living.

Design Inspiration: This home overlooks the countryside and we designed a cosy, homely, country feel to all the living spaces. For the living room we skilfully broke up the long living room space. Creating pockets of different seating areas for different functions i.e. reading, watching telly and a relaxing fireplace area makes this space more intimate. Adding layers of rugs, cushions and table lamps all in natural materials and with pattern, colour and texture makes these spaces cosy and inviting. In the family snug the budget was tight so we up-cycled some furniture pieces by repainting and changing door handles. We worked around the sofa's and chairs (that we could not replace) to achieve a cohesive look. Replacing a window with a bifold door allowed natural light to pour into what was once, a dark dining room,  now provides views onto the beautiful garden too.
