Decorator Design Style

In ensuring that rooms work you have to have this main objective “To build rooms that have a relationship with you!”

You might be a bit perplexed as to this statement but in delving into what you love , how you live and what makes you feel good I can create something that will be right for you. So right in fact that you would find it hard to leave as it is customised to your every passion and need.

This room was created for a couple that wanted luxury but still wanted function.

Concealing items that we may select to open only at certain times is key in creating overall balance. From the photo no one would realise the depth of considerations that were made.

This is what we considered just for this room, you may be surprised. I will divide it into male and female so you can see how I need to consider both people.

Male
A new plasma screen that was big so as he could watch the horse racing. He owned horses and loved seeing this on a large screen

Somewhere where he could have a cocktail cabinet area. They both enjoyed spending time together before dinner and he loved pouring a scotch for his wife and himself in the luxury of their lounge room. So concealed behind doors is a beautiful glass and marble bar equipped with a fridge and a sink. It sparkles as you open the doors and invites them to relax.

Comfort was also very important for the furniture, He was of course larger than his wife and we had a sofa made that fitted their needs. Not too deep but deep enough for him whilst being perfect for her. The back had to be comfortable for their heads to rest, we even discussed details of how they sat on their lounges, was it together or did he prefer a favourite chair. All this was considered as I designed their personal selections

Female
The colour was important to create a relaxing feeling. It had to feel warm.

Be not too fussy but to still accommodate their most loved things and to be grandchildren proof. Durable fabrics-velvet, washable walls, the coffee table was glass as it wipes done so well etc

There is a huge walk in cupboard that houses games of monopoly, blankets to cuddle up with, the golf clubs, exercise mats etc

She had always wanted a fireplace because they look so great, of course we didn’t want the mess.

Music had to be integrated along with the whole surround sound system . No ugly speakers showing here.

The challenge was installing the TV at the right viewing height and checking that we could have this enormous fireplace underneath. I designed the fireplace to be exactly the correct measurement to fit the specially operated sliding doors above that concealed the TV….intricate. You wouldn’t even know its there

When completing a life space this way my clients and I often develop wonderful friendships as we have created something beautiful and have developed “trust”.
