Reviving retro

AS RENOVATION FIRST TIMERS, AMY AND TOM HAVE TRULY PASSED WITH FLYING COLOURS, TRANSFORMING A DARK, TWO-STOREY TERRACED HOUSE INTO A THREE-STOREY, LIGHT-FILLED CONTEMPORARY HOME

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…

The decision to buy a tired doer-upper was all about the location for one couple and realising they had to knock it down felt like a setback, but now they have a contemporary home that’s as spectacular as the landscape it sits within
