What we discovered when we started working on this room...
At first glance, this was a beautiful, light-filled space with wonderful proportions.
But once we started looking at how the room would actually be used, there were three things that were making it feel off.
1. The first was the amount of light.
The large windows were a fantastic feature, but at certain times of day there was simply too much of it. We introduced electric blinds so the light could be controlled without losing the feeling of space.
2. The second was the acoustics.
With so much glass, hard flooring and open space, sound travelled around the room and it felt quite echoey. Furniture, soft furnishings and wall panelling helped to soften this.
3. And the third was warmth.
Although the room was flooded with natural light, the original scheme felt cold. Introducing warmer colours, natural textures and more considered furnishings changed the atmosphere completely.
The finished room isn't just more visually appealing. It feels more comfortable to sit in, spend time in and use.
The difference wasn't about changing the room completely. It was about understanding what it needed.
