Goals and Inspiration
Our main goal was twofold: to bring to life the dream of a new build that has the soul and character of a century-old home, and to merge this vision with the distinctive, warm style of English country houses. Through aged materials and natural colours, we’ve crafted a space where rustic charm and elegance come together, evoking authenticity and longevity.
The Kitchen: More Than Just the Heart, the Soul
The kitchen, oh, the kitchen! Designed as the heart of the home, it brilliantly combines functionality with aesthetics. The two islands highlight our aim to create a space for sharing and togetherness, reminiscent of the large kitchens in English country houses where meal prep is a central family activity. These islands, with ample storage, a walk-in pantry, and a coffee nook, are not just practical but also place culinary tradition at the heart of family life.
Curves and Arches: The Design Dance
Forget straight lines! The bold use of curves, rounded shapes, and arches in hallways, showers, the kitchen hood, and even in mirrors and accessories is key to the project’s design. This approach, reminiscent of the organic forms and welcoming openings of English cottages, not only softens living spaces but also enhances the home’s character and uniqueness. These elements, breaking the monotony of straight lines, add a sense of fluidity and openness, essential for creating a truly family-oriented space.
