The owners of this charming house in the heart of Richmond had a clear brief – to give their tired double reception room a sophisticated and elegant London townhouse feel. By opting for a plaster colour on the walls, we created an understated warmth and helped connect the two spaces – one a family TV watching area, the other a grown up library. We relished the opportunity to combine some of our favourite fabrics and textures to create a layered look which epitomises the townhouse style – from bold, swirling curtains through to delicate woven silk cushions. Our clients later asked us back to focus on upstairs, transforming the tired master suite into a haven of tranquility.
