What we've been up to...
In last month's newsletter, we gave you a sneak peak of an exciting project that was close to completion. This month, we are delighted to share with you the final photos of this stunning garden room. We've included a few before shots so you can see the amazing transformation from start to finish!
What was once a playroom, has been completely transformed into this beautiful garden room where the clients can relax, sit and soak up the views of their lovely garden. For this project, we focussed on reusing and revamping some of the client’s existing furniture, using our budget wisely to add only a few new stand-out pieces and soft furnishings to refresh the entire room.
The client wanted to be able to use the garden room as an occasional guest room. They were fortunate enough to already have plumbing running to a what was a crafting area with a sink. We decided to corner this space off with a privacy wall, to create a perfectly formed kitchen/dressing area. This is a relatively small amount of work, with huge rewards. The images above show the before and initial sketches. See photos of the finished space below!
We kept the joinery neutral which allows the statement blue wall and the amazing wallpaper (mind the gap) to take centre stage. The tiles in the kitchen area from Fired Earth add character along with the charming pineapple cupboard handles and brass tap. The dressing room area incorporates baskets for storage into a bench covered in this gorgeous fabric. Above that we added a shelf for extra storage and an opportunity for styling pieces. During the day, the space is flooded with natural light but in the evening, we wanted this to remain a practical dressing room so we added some brass wall lights.
