DESIGN PROCESS We tend to have ‘a look’ we are trying to achieve before we start to look out the specific colours and fabrics. This can be inspired by the latest exhibitions, social media, travelling and magazines, as well as keeping up with the latest interior trends.

ACCESSORIES Accessories allow us to introduce texture and decoration. Cushions are great for adding colour or pattern and there is a much wider range of rugs available now to create more layers of interest.

PAINT, WALLPAPER AND COLOUR The look we are evoking will dictate the palette, texture and pattern we use on the walls. It could be pared down minimal using mostly paint finishes, or more decorative using wallpapers.

FABRIC AND FLOORING We like to mix texture and pattern. It works to layer the textures and add pattern or colour as a contrast. We choose the flooring as a base to ground it all after the fabrics have been chosen.
