We loved transforming the entrance of this three-storey stone barn in Warwickshire.

While the exterior was full of character, the interior had been left with a bland developer finish lacking warmth and personality. Our brief was to create a home that felt comfortable, warm, inviting and connected to the surrounding landscape.

We introduced panelling, layered textures and a colour palette inspired by the countryside, to bring depth, warmth and character to this beautiful entrance that sets the tone for the rest of the home.

Choosing colours can often feel overwhelming, especially when trying to create flow throughout a home. Working with us helps take away the guesswork, creating a scheme that feels cohesive, considered and completely personal to you.

If you have a full house renovation you’d like our help with, get in touch to book a consultation.

Too many years ago to remember, we started our journey in the curtain making and fabric trade.

Texture and feel are everything, they can make a room feel cosy and bring it to life. Because we know exactly how materials should be put together, our client’s can trust that their curtains, blinds, and room accessories are always of the very best quality.

We also love to partner with local craftspeople to create those one-of-a-kind pieces you can’t find anywhere else: Custom headboards, recovered antique chairs, and unique upholstered furniture.

If this Cotswolds project has sparked ideas to transform your house into a home, we’d love to hear from you!

H​ow to keep ​y​our home cosy without setting fire to £20 notes or killing the planet?

Insulation is key. If you’re doing major renovations, making sure your doors, windows, walls, and roof are as insulated as possible is a good place to start.

When collaborating on a project, we ensure all suppliers are scrutinised regarding their heat transfer values and efficiency.

You’ll be delighted to hear that spending on soft furnishings can also save on your heating bills. 10–25% of your heat escapes through your windows. Layer your windows with luscious fabrics of wool, or heavy textured linens—anything with a tight weave that won’t let the air through. These can be left open in the warmer months to open up the feel of your room. We specify that they are interlined, or used in combination with a blind for maximum effect. A lighter blind can maintain privacy during the day and let in valuable sunlight, with heavier curtains keeping in extra warmth after dark.

It is also time to welcome back the door curtain. A heavy curtain, particularly in front of an old door with glazed panels or a draughty letterbox, will make a huge difference in mitigating cold draughts. It’s worth having curtains made to measure. This will ensure there is plenty of weight when they are drawn and space on either side of the wall, so no warm air can escape.

We love designing interiors that are beautiful, comfortable, and intelligent. Take a look at our portfolio or get in touch if you’d like to work with us on your renovation in 2026.

Bespoke joinery is the key to creating a space that works exactly how you need it to, matching your style and chosen colour palette flawlessly. Think built-in beauty, designed just for your home.

The brief for our Cotswold Hideaway project was to blend authentic heritage with modern comfort, keeping original features and reintroducing those that had been lost. We handled the full interior design, right down to the last teaspoon, delivering a fully equipped letting cottage for six people.

During the strip out, our builder found original Victorian bead & butt boarding in the living room, we decided to keep the original paint colour to give it character. We revealed the old fireplace, installed a cosy new wood burning stove, and modernised the flow by removing a dividing wall.

In the kitchen, the design revolves around a reconditioned electric AGA our clients loved. We integrated appliances into Shaker style units, used clever space planning, and added new French doors and a window above the sink to flood the space with light.

Although nearly everything was replaced including the windows and doors we tried to select styles that were sympathetic to the age of the cottage.

Like all interior designers, we’ve spent years curating our ‘little black book’ of trusted suppliers. It’s a resource we’re constantly updating, meaning you always get the best, most beautiful options—many of which can’t be found on your own!

We know first hand that managing budgets is central to our clients peace of mind. That’s why, once we’ve selected all the furniture, lighting, and accessories for a project, we detail everything in a simple, comprehensive spreadsheet.

This sheet includes photos, pricing, and quantities, ensuring our work is completely transparent. You’ll know precisely what we’re suggesting and what to expect financially.

We handle all the numbers and logistics, so you can relax and focus on getting excited about the finished design!

Take a look at our portfolio to see our sourcing in action!
