Richmond

Although they had owned this very attractive Edwardian house in Richmond for some years, our clients had always found it to be dark and unwelcoming. We had previously worked with them on their country house and so they contacted us for an initial informal meeting to discuss what could be done. We instantly saw that by replacing a section of wall between the hallway and the formal sitting room, with a crittall style screen, we could create a light and welcoming hallway, leading into a warm and inviting sitting room. We lightened the paint colours and replaced the hallway floor with tessellated tiles. The gentle colours were continued throughout and we added panelling, beautiful wallpaper, luxurious fabrics and elegant bathroom fittings.

"I’d been scratching my head for months trying to think how to best update and improve our living space. Georgina came in and really got me thinking about how we used our living areas and how we might change the interior to fit in with our busy lives and two energetic kids. Designs were quickly agreed and four months later we have a fantastic new kitchen and dining room and a house that is so much more usable and sociable. The place has been transformed and we couldn’t be happier."
