Liz Clayton | Blue Ornamentation This collection by Liz Clayton features eight individual designs, each carefully and skillfully painted in watercolour medium. The rich blue tone has an underlying texture that comes from the flowing liquid paint as it settles upon the paper. The patterns have a pleasing and reoccurring nature, with a symmetry that grips the eye and keeps you looking. It is easy to become lost in the collection that is highly reminiscent of Victorian tile design.

This serene series by artist Charlotte Morgan sees the true beauty of the floral form exaggerated further by a stunningly simple approach in which colours are pared right back. A lone bee hovers around roses, pansies and other flowers, with the stark white petals rendered on a delicate grey background – the very essence of nature.

Desert Car Wash Photographer Erik Tham is famed for his studies of landscapes across the globe, with this shot taken in the deserts of Tecopa Hot Springs in California. A brave combination of the breathtaking beauty of the region and the aged, almost decrepit building and pick-up truck in the foreground, the earthier tones in the rusting metal, brickwork and desert contrast the sky serenely. Themes of abandonment, the enormity of the world and a quaint American timelessness are all touched on.

Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay There’s a sense of real serenity to this dockside hangout, with the primary colours of the chairs at the water’s edge contrasting beautifully with the calm white on the horizon. It looks like the perfect place for a spot of contemplation, and the red rowboat to the foreground suggests travel – or perhaps a journey’s end.

Follow The Leader This regal looking elephant and zebra following close behind were photographed spectacularly in the open grasslands of Etosha National Park in Namibia. The low framed, grass-cropped shot is a magnificent document of enchanting nature. However, colour also plays a major part in its success, with the sandy tones of the scrubland a perfect counter to the rich blue sky that makes up the majority of the frame.

HOUSE OF
GOLD There was one unexpected guiding principle for this London apartment - the golden De Gournay wallpaper PHOTOGRAPHS ANDREW BEASLEY
O
ne of Lucy Clark’s discerning clients was looking to overhaul a prime central London location which gave Lucy and her team what they described as ‘an interior designer’s dream.’ The reason for this was that she had bought it directly off plan from a developer as something of a blank canvas, and wanted the designers to create a real sanctuary.

design project
There was one unexpected guiding principal behind the entire project at the client’s request - wallpaper. De Gournay wallpaper in particular. Lucy Clark and her team took this as their starting point, allowing for a wealth of luxurious touches to be added throughout the home. For this project - which turned out to develop into an almost entirely bespoke home - the main living area features a stunning Japanese garden, and the designers chose to base much of their bespoke work around this. They commissioned a bespoke lighting designer, Habadashery, to create a first edition ‘Bloom’ china and gold edged flower installation, which beautifully replicates the magnolia featured in the wallpaper as well as serving as a definite focal point. They also commissioned specialist metal workers FRD to create a light installation that featured textured bronze branches and rock crystals to represent the flowers and branches - again found in the design of the beloved wallpaper. hello LEFT: FRD was commissioned to create a light installation that featured textured bronze branches and rock crystals to represent the flowers and branches which hangs above the living area ABOVE: Materials used for furniture and accents were understated and glamorous but allowed the De Gournay motifs to take centre stage

ABOVE: In the master bedroom, Lucy and her team introduced a beautiful mixture of soft purples, taupe and subtle tints of green to the colour palette
The client also explained how it was important for the designers to partition the spaces in the apartment, both to create a formal and relaxed living space as well as to ensure smells from the kitchen did not encroach into the dining and living space when entertaining. As much as the home was to be an artistic wonder, it also needed to function as exactly that - a home. hello And what is a home if not furnished? Lucy and her team worked closely with furniture makers Thomas James Furniture and George Smith to create all the bespoke furniture pieces that would feature in the new home. These collaborations ensured that the
materials used were understated but luxurious and would allow the De Gournay motifs to take centre stage. Wallpaper was again taken as an influence in the master bedroom and other living spaces, this time to create window treatments. These work wonders at complementing the wallpapers in those rooms and were designed with Vero Fabrics, who specialise in the production of luxurious seamless borders. The master suite itself was inspired by yet another De Gournay wallpaper, but this time Lucy and the team introduced a beautiful mixture of soft purples, taupe and subtle tints of green to the palette. hello

Lucy says her favourite aspect of the whole project was the bespoke screens which were specially created. Each weighs a hefty 200kg and was hoisted in through the window from outside on arrival. They were meticulously designed, again alongside metal workers FRD, who were tasked with bringing Lucy and her team’s designs into reality. The screens serve as a sculptural work of art as well as a practical partition between kitchen and dining room. Lucy explains that the main issue was getting all the bespoke pieces into the apartment, cranes were hired and hoists were used to get the furniture and screens up in through the
windows, and this meant ensuring site access checks took place by all suppliers. hello However all that effort - and particularly hauling the screens - was worth it. Lucy says their incredible intricacy stemmed from many detailed construction drawings which were made to ensure there were no errors further down the line. To see them finally in situ was, as Lucy says, overwhelming. hello One interesting element of the project, on a practical level, was the fact the client originally wanted to stay in the apartment whilst the team completed the works, but they persuaded her to move out. Lucy

explains that many of her clients get nervous when their homes are being stripped back, but will usually take time and care to make them aware of health and safety issues during any work. hello The often complex work simply demands upheaval. When removing staircase balustrading, updating the wiring and audio/visual elements of the home and reinforcing ceilings for the sliding screens and
pendant lights, it was vital to take ownership of the apartment, Lucy explains. The client eventually ended up moving abroad during the renovation. And of course, when the work is finished, it makes for a spectacular ‘grand reveal’ moment when they return.
