+ Read about the project

We were invited to interior design and refurbish part of this fabulous Branksome house, the house boasts beautiful gardens and an inviting swimming pool, moments from the beach!

This gorgeous family have lived in the house for almost two decades, and so finally bit the bullet and decided to give it the upgrade it deserved, allowing them to really enjoy all their large family gatherings, and parties that play such a bit part of their lives… at least when Covid allows!! (It’s truly amazing to see such a close family that all enjoy being together so much, and entertaining so effortlessly)

Our client chose much of her new furnishings, the sofas, dining table, and mirrored console that reflects all the light that now floods into the property!

We started work in the living room, removing all the old skirtings and the fireplace that existed there, and replacing it with a contemporary new wall mounted feature, complete with an inset television above, and which sits as a focal point of the room like a piece of glowing art surrounded by white marble... we wallpapered the feature and lit it from the sides, and breathed new life into the ceiling by painting all the moulding feature in silver and filling it with shimmering wallpapering, and we think the result was fabulous! We blocked up a doorway from the lounge to a hallway that was no longer used, giving a more cohesive feel to the room, and completed the look with new lighting, furniture and soft furnishings.. the curtains just finished it off beautifully…

We then started work in their second reception room which was named the party room, it once boasted large frosted glass doors separating the two rooms, but once removed, opened up the area to make it one, and feel twice the size! We also enlarged the recess opening that was once framed in wood, removed all the wooden beams that reached the length of the ceiling, with fingers crossed in the hope that no steels would be found behind them, We also raised the low arches that lead you to the rest of the house, and installed new patio doors to the garden, and with beautiful new lighting, to finish off the ceiling feature we added as a focal point to the room, we handed this delightful client their home back, eager to enjoy their new surroundings in peace!

We hope you enjoy the pictures we have posted here and on Instagram!
