The owners had lived here long enough to know exactly how they wanted each room to work.
An American academic and her Russian physicist husband, at home in a house that hadn’t yet caught up with the rest of their life.
Ours was a job of refinement rather than reinvention: Bringing warmth and consistency to rooms left at a builder’s finish.
We worked with a palette of light neutrals and warm, tonally-shifting colour, letting the sense of space in the open-plan kitchen and dining room ripple outward through the rest of the house.
Antique wood, linen and velvet lend depth without ever tipping into clutter. Bespoke joinery, sourced artwork and pieces from local makers sit alongside specialist wall coverings throughout – colourful yet calm, with the same eclectic energy as the streets outside.
