Eclectic Living Room
West Hampstead, London
This project was such a pleasure to work on and represents Studio Ember’s personal design style as well as the clients.
The clients already had some interesting pieces they had collected on their travels but none of them were being showcased in the previously dark and uninspiring room.
This was a project about showcasing their personalities through colour and pattern. We went for rich saturated tones in all the furniture and accessories as this spoke to the nature of the clients and their colour psychology.
The challenge with this room was privacy and that it was north facing so blocking light wasn’t an option. Opting for shutters that could independently open across the top provided uninterrupted light and perfect privacy for this ground floor London home.
To combat the light issue and to really get light bouncing around the space we made the bold choice to paint the floor boards a beautiful soft and warm light grey. The original floor boards were in terrible condition so there was no love loss and it lifted the whole space immediately.
