interior renovation of a classic sixties house
Client Brief Client requested a contemporary and classical design. The client also wished to reconstruct and compliment the features of the original design while adding three more bedrooms and enlarging the kitchen to four times the original size. Client wished to keep the ceilings but for us to redesign the lighting system throughout as the existing one was very dated. Client required all new furniture, six new bathrooms, a new modern state of the art kitchen and a complete redesign of the study and walk in dressing room. Brief Specification Each bathroom was redesigned to compliment the contemporary feel of the house, using a general theme of textured glass, wenge wood and limestone. A new lighting design was applied with considerable difficulty and caution as the ceilings were original and the client requested that they stay. We fitted low voltage lighting with much smaller bespoke chrome surrounds. Xu Red hand crafted several peices of furniture and complimented the whole design with other furniture from Molteni & C, B&B Italia, Flexform, Mobileffe and Miele. All curtains and soft furnishings were hand made. The study was designed specifically to enhance our clients' private collection of rare books.
