Take a tour around a Victorian terrace in London

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.

Find a similar chair designs at Twentytwentyone, and visit After Noah for a cupboard like this.

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 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.

Creating a focal point in this kitchen is the reclaimed butcher’s block, which combines traditional wooden craftsmanship and luxurious marble, giving a look that’s both modern and timeless.

Try Salvo for a similar butcher’s block.

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.

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.

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.
