HIGH HEATH
A Brand New, Luxurious and Contemporary Home
outside of London.
The Project
The Background
Our clients bought High Heath back in 2018. They moved from a Victorian conversion in South London to their forever home oustide of London. This was a brand new show home.
The Challenge
This brand new show home proved to be a blessing and a curse. As much as it was great to move into spanking new home, it also held our clients back from putting their own stamp on the property and visualising anything different! They felt overwhelmed with the size of the space, and needed the right furniture to fit in. It was also all very white so needed colour, texture, character….and in general some life! The main area of focus was their lounge and kitchen which were very large. They wanted to make this hub extra special for them and their guests.
The Solution
Overall our main target was, to specify furniture that would be in proportion with the rooms and to add colour, texture and life into the space. We added lots of textures to the space. First we started off with a wall paper, to give the space some warmth and texture. We then also added Acupanel on one side of the double fronted fire place and marble on the other.
The Outcome
The outcome was a refreshed contemporary and timeless home. One that oozes elegance and character for the family to enjoy for years to come. It is now both a welcoming home and a great place to entertain. It no longer feels like a huge overwhelming space but instead has lots for warmth and character. Throughout we thoroughly enjoyed discussing, collaborating and presenting ideas to our clients. We wish the lovely couple a life time of happiness and hope they enjoy their beautiful and unique home.
Design Details
The prospect of addressing the layout and decor in our forever home was overwhelming to say the least. Carly & Molly swiftly stepped in to help as soon as we got in touch and from the outset struck the perfect balance between frankness and sensitivity. It meant the whole project was efficient and collaborative. They are energetic, supportive and very patient; nudging at just the right times to maintain momentum and keep things on track. We are extremely pleased with the results and our ‘new home’ and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending their services to anyone!
