They desired a home with a social heart that catered for their busy household. They approached us to realise their dream, and to assure the use of the finest quality materials and workmanship throughout the project.

We began by designing a large kitchen and dining extension at the rear of the building. This provided a central point for socialising and enjoying time together as a family. A new entrance and generous hallway also made it easier to accommodate more people.

The aesthetic was as important as the functionality. We used imported Italian marble, rich timbers and nickel fittings to add quality and attention to detail worthy of this stunning property. A muted, neutral colour palette also created a spacious feel with a sense of flow.

Phase two is underway. This will see the redesign of two en-suite bedrooms and the main relaxation rooms. On completion, this stunning home will be fully reimagined with a classically tailored style.

A Jack and Jill bathroom was designed for the client’s two teenage girls. A large shower was created clad in a dark marble to contrast against the lighter stone. Feature alcoves allowed for the girls to display perfume and trinkets with dedicated double vanities to avoid any disputes!

I have worked with Lewis Knox from the start. They listen to me as a customer and design with my ideas in mind and their professional touches. Efficient, exceptionally easy to work with, always at the end of the phone . No matter how busy they are, they are never too busy to help.
