Who says blue and pink can’t be grown up?

Downstairs is now brave and bold not beige. The hallway, stairs, and landing are drenched in Little Greene’s Julies Dream, with architraves and skirting in Masquerade Mid. Built in cabinetry in Di Nimes by F&B keeps things practical and pretty.

Step into the dining area and kitchen for Masquerade walls, Green Verditer cabinetry, and Hicks Blue panelling—layered colour, playful details, and a space that feels truly welcoming.

"Good design begins with honesty."

These dramatic before and after images reveal the true potential hiding in every space. From exposed beams and construction debris to a sophisticated master suite that balances bold choices with timeless elegance.

The sage green bedroom with vaulted ceiling, custom navy joinery in the dressing area, and statement black marble bathroom create a harmonious sanctuary that's both dramatic and deeply liveable.

A little light goes a long way. This is how you make a home feel alive, not just decorated.

A carefully positioned downlight can highlight features, while subtle ambient lighting can make a space feel bigger and brighter. Remember that good lighting design considers not just brightness but temperature, positioning and layering.

No bland greys in sight just bright blue, lush plants, and a chair that’s ready for your next big idea.

Home offices don't have to be boring.

This bistro design balances rustic textures with modern elements. Those copper-accented planters against weathered brick create depth while the industrial metal tables and chairs from @peppermillinteriors add character.

The perfect spot to sip something cool while the sun blazes outside.

This green bathroom proves that bold colour choices pay off in the most luxurious ways. The double vanity (a reclaimed sideboard) creates perfect symmetry while those brushed gold fixtures add warmth against this bold pastel green backdrop.

Who else is ready to ditch the all-white bathroom trend? 💚

Smart storage meets stylish seating.

This green verditer bench creates a seamless transition between cooking and relaxation zones. It features hidden storage beneath and those striped cushions that echo the dining table's nautical runner.

The perfect example of how thoughtful zoning transforms open spaces into distinct yet harmonious areas.

Does your entrance represent you?

This hallway was white, stark and felt really uninviting. A space you moved through as quickly as possible but not now it’s been colour drenched in all tones of #masquarade skirtings, architraves, walls and ceilings, which is the perfect backdrop against the oak doors & stairs.

Resulting in a warm welcoming that every house deserves.

Bringing the outside in never looked so good.

This open-plan kitchen-diner showcases how one dramatic feature wall can anchor an entire space. The rich teal botanical wallpaper creates a stunning backdrop for rustic wood furniture, while velvet blue chairs and strategic pops of mustard add depth and personality.

A perfect recipe for a space that's both sophisticated and liveable.
