CONTEMPORARY LIVING
The design brief was to create a fresh , contemporary style informed by the agricultural structures of the Kent countryside . The result is a striking new aesthetic based around a palette of cool muted greys where detail and proportion combine to deliver a sense of place .
" The bold lines of Lydden Hills within the picturesque village of Lydden are the work of Procters & Matthews Architects ."
With its close proximity to the French borders , the development oozes cosmopolitan glamour . Honky , the award-winning , multi-disciplinary architectural and interior design practice completed the interior design , drawing on Lydden Hills surroundings of both nature and sea .
Paul Dawson , Design Director , Honky says :
“ The stunning landscape of the North Downs and its tapestry of colours was the main inspiration for the design of the overall scheme , with the area ’ s natural tones of neutrals , golds , rusts and blues featured heavily throughout the homes . We wanted to evoke the reflection of the scenery into the design to create a warm , inviting and elegant home .’’
The colour scheme of gold , blues and dark woods create a luxurious feeling inspired by those of exclusive private beach clubs and the marble of the tables emulates the grey and silky nature of the pebbles on the beaches , and the artwork a reflection of the rugged white cliffs .’’
