This classic, old stone house required a full renovation and a lot of love to make the spaces flow better and to make it warm and comfortable for modern living.  

CLIENT PERSONA

Our clients are a large family and enjoy entertaining both indoors and in the garden which leads to a pretty brook.

THE BRIEF

We were tasked with creating a family home with flexible living spaces using warm tones and adding colour to reflect the character of the local area.  The kitchen & bathrooms required completely re-fitting and the entire house had to be stripped in order to update the lighting, heating and crumbling plasterwork.

A large bar and big screen TV were also top of the list for watching sports!

IT’S ALL IN THE DETAIL

Jane and Helen are just wonderful. They are creative, responsive, and they really stay on top of their projects (this is our second with them).
We could not be more pleased with our finished project. They really understood our taste.
We also appreciate that Jane and Helen stay on all the details and see things through to prompt completion.

INSPIRED

Jane and Helen helped me through the maze involved in redecorating to find what I liked and then put together a scheme that I’m thrilled with.
