Design Finds | Photowall Bedroom Wallpaper

The most striking design feature in my recent bedroom makeover is undoubtedly the Dark Emerald Green Watercolour Wallpaper I installed behind the bed. My flat is a rented modern new build, and the bedroom was a blank canvas. I wanted the space to feel modern with a hint of boho, which meant subtle texture, raw materials and a limited colour palette. I also wanted the design to pack a punch. Wallpaper can be renter friendly, and it’s a great way…

ORC Week 5 | A Midcentury-Inspired Bed

ORC Week 5 | A Midcentury-Inspired Bed

It’s One Room Challenge Week Five, with reveal day set for next week. The UK has just gone into a second lockdown, and everything is delayed. I can’t get the wallpaper hung for at least another two weeks, and there are shipping delays on the remaining furniture and the lighting. I started looking for speedier alternatives, but ultimately decided to take a few extra weeks and finish with a space doesn’t involve cutting corners. This is where the room is…

ORC Week 3 | Boho Bedroom Progress

I’m working on the master bedroom in my new flat for this One Room Challenge. You can catch up on what the ORC is, and read all the details on the mood board and plans for this space, in last week’s post, but here’s a refresher on my boho/mid-century design for this bedroom… Adding Subtle Texture Things have started arriving, including the pretty rattan chest of drawers.

My Go-To Source for Affordable Custom Blinds | Mood Board | Boy’s Room

I gave my son’s room a mini update not long ago. I added a mid-century dresser, moved his keyboard in, and switched the furniture around, but it still wasn’t completely finished. Today, I’m sharing my go-to source for affordable custom blinds, and talking about the impact the right window treatments can have in interior design. There were a few niggly issues in this room that needed addressing. The rug was too small, the bedside cabinet had seen better days, and the curtains…

Design Inspo | Sweetpea & Willow

I was invited to visit Sweetpea & Willow‘s Isleworth showroom a couple of weeks ago. It’s packed with lovely things, and heavy on the glam. There was a lot to like, including stunning floral arrangements by Stems and Bows. This event was where I spotted a bed wwoon-worthy enough to inspire a whole mood board. Look at those legs! And I always love textured bedding. It wasn’t the only gorgeous bed there. Sweetpea & Willow do seating just as fabulous…

Mood Board | An Industrial Art Deco Bedroom Design

Mood Board | An Industrial Art Deco Bedroom Design

Today’s bedroom design combines art deco lines with industrial features, and it all started with the bed. It’s definitely a bit more glam than I tend to go for, but the Art Deco lines on the headboard are killer, and the Scandi-style feet with their little brass ends are just so pretty. Rather than go all-out luxe, I paired the glamourous bed with a few industrial touches, because that’s my jam. And set it all in a loft room, because…

Summer Home Tour

Summer Home Tour

Today I’m taking you on a summer tour of my home. I live in a rented three-bed terrace in Mortlake, South West London. I design interiors in an eclectic mix of styles, but have focused on a combination of global, mid-century and industrial design features in this 90s-built house. The Dining Area The dining area is at one end of a long living room, which is also my husband’s office. Because the room serves so many functions, I keep the styling…
