The perfect blend

When one couple decided to build a new house they asked designer Francesca Leat to ensure it felt like a home that had been lived in and loved for years

Every room in this house has a beautiful warmth and a style that is at once classic and modern – it’s a look that feels as if it’s been lovingly curated over time

HANNAH’S HOME IS A MASTERCLASS IN OPTIMISING NATURAL LIGHT AND SPACE, WHERE OLD MEETS NEW, AND PRETTY PASTELS POP AGAINST NEUTRAL WALLS. COME ON IN…

Designers Zoe Maclachlan and Valentina Pennazio proved to be a dream team when it came to giving an Edwardian terrace more space, light and style

A cleverly reconfigured layout and vibrant colour palette mean Laura Brown’s 1930s semi is the ideal blend of form and function

Creativity abounds in this one-of-a-kind house – where the artistic use of colours, materials and design flourishes means there is something stunning to take in at every turn
