The focal point of thisĀ living room is the unique patchwork sofa. Dressed with mismatched floral cushions, the rich colours within sofa are intensified, creating a summery vibe.


Living room with antique influences
Marrying old and new isn't always easy. Here, antique accents, such as the paintings and cupboard, have been allowed to shine against a white backdrop. The classic shapes of the modern furniture means they don't impose.

Modern living room
The modern shape of a sleek corner sofa, along with the vibrant turquoise and moss green colours, brings a fresh look to this living room. Floral print cushions complement the natural colours, but with a black backdrop, they add a contemporary aspect.
The sofa is from B&B Italia and is upholstered in fabrics from Designers Guild.

Stainless steel kitchen
Stainless-steel units, brick-shaped tiles, industrial lighting and white-washed floorboards combine to create an urban feel in the kitchen.
IKEA have similar stainless-steel kitchens, and the lights are from Designers Guild.


Monochrome bedroom
Four-poster beds are often seen as traditional objects. In this case however, a reworking of the classic shape with clean lines in matt silver and matched with monochrome accessories, means it's been transformed into a contemporary piece.
MDF Italia sells this bed, and similar ornate side tables can be found at Appley Hoare Antiques.

Turquoise hallway
Marrying antique gold furniture with a modern sea blue colour works surprisingly well in this hallway. Painting the entire space in such a strong colour is a sure-fire way to grab the attention of guests.

Marble bathroom
For an injection of luxury into a bathroom, marble tiles are perfect. A freestanding bath placed in the centre of the room completes the look.

Exotic bathroom
Bringing exotic style to this bathroom is the large painting and vivid blue cupboard. These strong colours evoke the mood of the Far East, while also lifting an all-white scheme.
