One of us, start to finish.
Vintage first
A third of every project is vintage or antique.
The kitchen is the heart of our house now. The oak island still makes me smile.

Designed slowly, lived in happily
Colour you can live with
We test every paint in your light, on big boards, over whole days. No surprises when the decorators leave.
- Sample boards in your home
- Low-VOC paints
- Whole-home palette
Materials that age well
Solid wood, stone, linen and wool develop character with every year. We avoid anything that looks tired after five.
- Solid timber and stone
- Natural fibres
- Unlacquered brass
A home should look like the people who live there, not like a showroom. Our job is to help it get there sooner.
