A layered interior with jade walls, antique gilt mirror and warm linen curtains
Chapter two · Interiors

Rooms designed
to be lived in.

A small, art-led interiors practice. We work on a handful of projects a year — full renovations, whole-house schemes, and single-room edits — with the same handmade attention to layers, light, and story.

Our approach

A quiet, editorial way of working.

We begin every project the same way — by walking through the rooms slowly, asking about the life inside them, and looking for the pieces you already love. Then we design outward from there.

Our schemes lean warm and moody: painted panelling, aged brass, layered linens, jade and clay, gilt against charcoal. Nothing is ever fully new — we mix in antiques from our own collection so every room feels as though it has been gathered, not decorated.

Services

Three ways we work.

01

Full Renovation

From plaster to picture rails.

A complete architectural and interior programme — space planning, joinery, lighting design, finishes and material palettes — delivered end to end with our trusted trades.

  • Concept & mood direction
  • Detailed drawings & specs
  • Joinery & bespoke pieces
  • Site coordination
02

Interior Design

The whole room, gently choreographed.

For homes that don't need building work — furniture layouts, colour, art, lighting and antiques from our own collection, woven into a scheme that will still feel right in twenty years.

  • Room-by-room schemes
  • Antique sourcing
  • Colour & material palette
  • Full styling install
03

Styling Assistance

A single afternoon, a shift in the whole room.

For those who have most of what they need. We come to you, rearrange, edit, layer in a few pieces from our collection, and quietly change how a room feels.

  • Half or full day
  • In-home consultation
  • Layout & object editing
  • Optional loan pieces
