The drawing room originally felt unhomely
and cold due to the enormous scale of the
sliding doors, so we introduced heavily
interlined satin curtains with textured
pelmets, accessorised with stunning
bespoke crystal tiebacks to provide a
touch of glamour. Individual threads were
selected for the tiebacks to provide a
perfect match to the rest of the scheme,
and enabled us to personalise the length to
suit to extraordinary height of the window.
Formal Living area
We introduced smoky blue and silver
accents to lift the sumptuous, buttoned,
deep blue velvet sofas and further create
a sophisticated and luxurious scheme.
The rich, silk effect rug edged in a soft
taupe border, provided a plush texture
underfoot, but also allowed the room to
be zoned between the sociable seating
area around the coffee table and the
reading area in front of the bookshelf. We
designed high back reading chairs in front
of the bookshelf and upholstered them in
a statement geometric patterned velvet
fabric, carrying the smoky blues into this
area of the room.
