Sadly, rented flats in Hong Kong generally come hand in hand with ugly bathrooms. But do not despair! There are some easy and impermanent ways to transform these sad spaces, as you can see from this picture of our bathroom at home (swipe for the before). Here are a few ideas that you can action easily:

▫️Introduce furniture that doesn’t look too bathroomy; a wooden framed mirror for example, a piece of art, or a wall cabinet that isn’t mirrored, a little stool or a wooden bin.
▫️Fabric is your friend. Curtains under the sink to replace white laminate doors is a really good trick (particularly if you use a fabulous fabric like this one from ). Also, a shower curtain hides a multitude of sins; avoid plastic ones like the plague. You can put a plastic layer on the inside and a lovely 100% linen on the outside. Or splash out on a fabulous designer fabric to draw the eye away from the shiny white tiles.
▫️If at all possible, change the lighting in the bathroom, so you can have an atmospheric option. If there is a wall light you may be able to replace with an antique brass and glass one or, failing that, make sure you have a candle on the go at all times.
▫️Give the ugly bathroom hardware some love – change the towel rail, install an eye-catching hook for a hand towel, remove the sad loo roll holder and put the rolls in a wicker basket instead.
▫️Often the floor is the biggest let down. A shiny white expanse of 30 by 30 ceramic tiles, and not the nice kind. It is so easy to install peel and stick tiles over the top, but just make sure you buy the removable ones!

It’s easy to flick through photos of pretty interiors without realising what it takes to create a space like this; a small shower/powder room in an apartment in Hong Kong. Here are some of the design decisions we made, in case you are facing a renovation project, or are just into this kind of thing, like me.

▫️The calacatta marble was cut into rectangles to give the space a retro, masculine feel. We used the same stone for the skirting which wraps around the room and for a small baton detail around the shower at the height of the shower wall.

▫️The small wall avoids a floor to ceiling piece of glass, a contemporary look which wouldn’t work as well in this space. On the back of the wall is an indent for products, neatly hidden from view.

▫️The floor stone is a simple off-white marble, nothing to write home about, but made special by the pattern we created. I felt it was important to have a contrast from the calacatta marble so that it didn’t feel too heavy-handed in a small space. I was so happy with how this turned out.

▫️The tapware is from . Apart from the beauty of its design and the patinated brass, investing in high quality tapware is so important, as you need to ensure at least a 10 year guarantee. If it breaks, you have to demolish your beautiful stone to replace the in-wall elements and you just don’t want to be doing that.

▫️The wall mounted cabinet was designed for this project. The dark wood finish is used inside the cabinet too and the brass rim picks up on the tapware and the frame around the shower glass nicely. We curved the cabinet to add interest and installed a socket inside for an electric toothbrush - beauty and function, always.

▫️We had such a small space for a vanity, but this sink, in a gently veined taupe marble, made specially for this space, really packs a punch.

▫️Finally, the lighting. We used a flower-shaped ceiling mounted light and wall mounted light above the vanity from - no ugly spotlights here!

A very hard working room at home, because all spaces in Hong Kong need to earn their keep.

This one is a bedroom for my (grown up) children when they are home and it is also my home office. Every little thing in here has its place. Swipe to see how I organise my samples library in labelled wicker boxes and behind broderie anglaise cafe curtains on a brass rail.

I really love this blue (Blue Ground) and so I painted it everywhere - walls, skirting, coving and ceiling - to create a cocooning feeling. This is the first time I have done a pelmet and headboard in matching cotton velvet and I love it. The pelmet also covers an ugly plastic curtain rail which is a handy trick.

I have some of my favourite fabrics in this space - on the ottoman, hiding paint samples on a shelving unit and my absolute favourite fabric on the lumbar cushion. It has black and white stripes on the back and is rather fabulous and it will shortly be for sale in my online shop. Coming soon!

Three bathrooms in one project.

We selected three strikingly different stones and paired them with some statement lighting fixtures from , for and with cabinetry in honeyed oak, dove grey veined marble and a spray painted off-white matte finish.

Three very different bathrooms, but all belonging in the same space.

Revisiting a project from a while ago today. It is always such fun to be challenged to transform a rented space - no flooring, no paint, no wallpaper or moving of any lighting positions - just working with what you have.

In this instance, as time was of the essence, almost every piece was sourced in Hong Kong through trusted suppliers and I have tagged them for you, as it can be tricky to find what you are looking for here.

The ottoman was custom made for this project and the fabric really lifted the scheme. It works so well to make a brave choice about at least one “hero” fabric in the room and this is a great example.

If you want to see the transformation, swipe to the last slide for the “before” image.

Happy Sunday! ❤️

Yellow can be a hero colour in interiors, even adding a pop of it in a piece of art, or some simple flowers can make all the difference.

Here are some spaces dressed in yellow in all its forms, from muted ochre to cheerful butter tones. The first two are from my projects and the rest are images I have squirreled away in my saved folders - in the same way I used to tear images from magazines, they are a mine of inspiration.

Swipe for a burst of sunshine filled inspiration this Easter. I hope you have a wonderful sunny day 🌞

This desk was the first piece of furniture we bought when we arrived in Hong Kong 25 years ago. In those days we would all go to Macau for the day and furnish our entire house with these heavy, dark wood pieces. I have gone through many moments of wanting to rid the house of them, but now I find myself attached. The desk has just always been there and so now it has earned its place in our family story.

The dining table (second pic) is also dark wood and that is an easy fix. This particular table cloth is a goodie from the collection for - 100% linen with a satisfying weight to it. Slightly overshadowed by the glorious snaky tablecloth on the round table by - what a beauty!
