If one piece of furniture sums up family life, then it’s the dining table. The place for weekday suppers, weekend feasts, family meetings, dinner parties and creative clubs, dining furniture really does deserve some love and consideration.
More InfoWe ask a lot from our living rooms. It’s a space to which we retreat when our bodies call for cosiness; it’s a space that has to beckon guests, making them feel instantly at home; it’s a space that we ask to entertain, ready to awake from the slumber we asked from it only the day before.
More InfoWe like to think of walls and furniture as the first layer of our home, which can then be accessorised with all those precious things that signpost our lives and tell our story. Group them together by colour, texture, shape or material and they instantly become more interesting; we love the combination of antique wood and chunky white ceramic, both of which are as lovely to touch as they are to look at. Add cushions in colours that cheer you and hang pictures of places you’ve visited, and you’ve instantly created somewhere utterly unique.
More InfoA little effort makes a huge difference in this most under-rated room where it’s easy to transform a functional space into spa-like luxury. Take inspiration from nature and surround yourself with the relaxing, tactile sensation of wood, marble and limestone. Choose a palette of dusky, muted tones complemented by lovely accessories, and you can lie back in perfect surroundings and splendid isolation.
