Graceful mirrored joinery extends the depth of our family room design, the Heathfield Conniston chandelier with stunning antique brass metalwork setting a scene of luxury.


Period rooms don't need to be painted with "traditional" colours. So forget whites and creams and try more distinctive colours. High ceilings can carry modern, bold colours. Accessories can really complete the look, copper vases set this room off beautifully.
Wall colours Stepping Stone, available in Matt or Mid Sheen Breatheasy emulsion and Royal Ocean available in any finish from Crown Colourmix.

The very high ceilings of this living room create a focal point as you enter the long foyer. The fabric on the curtains, a semi transparent linen, permits the natural light to seep through the entire space. A Floridian environment was created by using soft aqua blues throughout. The furniture is Christopher Guy modern sofas and the glass tables adding an airy feel. The silver and crystal leaf motif chandeliers finish the composition. Our Aim was to bring the outside landscape of beautiful tropical greens and orchids indoors.
