The heart of the home is the reception room where deep blues from the Tyrrhenian Seas beautifully coalesce with soft whites and soupçons of antique gold under a bespoke chandelier of 1,800 hand-hung crystal droplets.

Radiator covers are both a nice way to discretely hide unattractive radiators, as well as providing handy storage/surfaces, like this console table design. Twin brass lamps either side frame the map we hung on the wall.

Every home deserves spaces that balance elegance and relaxation. In this project, we transformed two distinct living areas into cohesive retreats that perfectly complement each other. Let’s take a closer look at how these spaces came to life. The Transformation Living Room 1 connects to the open-plan Kitchen and Dining Area though French Glass Doors, enhancing the flow of light and air. It was envisioned as a casual, warm and inviting space where all members of the home gather for daily activities, like watching TV, playing games, or relaxing together. It prioritizes comfort, durability, and functionality. The addition of custom-built shelving on either side of the fireplace is the highlight feature adding a touch of character to the room while creating a beautiful space for displaying books, decor, and keepsakes. Living Room 2 is a stand-alone room a formal space. It was designed to create an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere. It serves as a place for entertaining guests, hosting special occasions, or enjoying quiet moments in a refined setting. In both spaces the timber floors were carefully sanded, stained, and polished to ensuring a cohesive look throughout the home. Fresh paint on the walls and ceiling brightened the space, tying it seamlessly to the adjoining areas. The Result Both rooms feel like two chapters of the same story—connected in style but distinct in purpose. Together, these spaces combine practicality and beauty, offering the best of both worlds: elegance for hosting and serenity for unwinding.

This is one of our most popular fire surrounds - a Bolection in marble. Contrasting with the slate hearth and slips, its a fine centrepiece to the room. A brushed steel Universal basket completes the look. Edwardian House, Wandsworth. By Oliver Bea Design. Photo by William Goddard Photography.

No, we don't sleep up there - the bed drops down into the lounge area by remote to convert the space into a bedroom. High loft spaces tend to be quite hot in a sub-tropical climate, so we preferred to sleep lower down and leave the loft (at the opposite end of the house) as an occasional mixed-use space. It's currently home to our sound system and record collection.

To dwell and establish connections with a place is a basic human necessity often combined, amongst other things, with light and is performed in association with the elements that generate it, be they natural or artificial. And in the renovation of this purpose-built first floor flat in a quiet residential street in Kennington, the use of light in its varied forms is adopted to modulate the space and create a brand new dwelling, adapted to modern living standards. From the intentionally darkened entrance lobby at the lower ground floor – as seen in Mackintosh’s Hill House – one is led to a brighter upper level where the insertion of wide pivot doors creates a flexible open plan centred around an unfinished plaster box-like pod. Kitchen and living room are connected and use a stair balustrade that doubles as a bench seat; this allows the landing to become an extension of the kitchen/dining area - rather than being merely circulation space – with a new external view towards the landscaped terrace at the rear. The attic space is converted: a modernist black box, clad in natural slate tiles and with a wide sliding window, is inserted in the rear roof slope to accommodate a bedroom and a bathroom. A new relationship can eventually be established with all new and existing exterior openings, now visible from the former landing space: traditional timber sash windows are re-introduced to replace unsightly UPVC frames, and skylights are put in to direct one’s view outwards and upwards. photo: Gianluca Maver

Située en région parisienne, Du ciel et du bois est le projet d’une maison éco-durable de 340 m² en ossature bois pour une famille. Elle se présente comme une architecture contemporaine, avec des volumes simples qui s’intègrent dans l’environnement sans rechercher un mimétisme. La peau des façades est rythmée par la pose du bardage, une stratégie pour enquêter la relation entre intérieur et extérieur, plein et vide, lumière et ombre. - Photo: © David Boureau
