A kitchen designed around the details đź’«

A little look behind the scenes at the kitchen design for one of our latest interior projects in Cornwall.

The vision? A timeless, beautifully considered kitchen that balances traditional craftsmanship with understated luxury.

Warm oak cabinetry sits alongside soft porcelain tones, while beautifully veined quartz, patinated brass fittings and carefully considered lighting bring warmth, texture and character to the space.

But great kitchen design is about so much more than beautiful finishes.

From the gentle curve of the pantry doors to the internal drawer detailing, integrated lighting and the flow between the kitchen, pantry and laundry, every element has been considered to make everyday living feel effortless.

We love mixing materials, textures and finishes to create interiors that feel layered, inviting and quietly luxurious — spaces that will look just as beautiful in ten years as they do today.

Because the most successful interiors aren’t just about how they look, but how they make you feel and how beautifully they work.

A project we’re really looking forward to seeing come to life.

Sometimes, the location is just as important as the house itself. Perhaps even more so.

Our current interior design and refurbishment project is situated in this beautiful part of Looe, Cornwall, with breathtaking coastal views and a setting that’s pretty hard to beat.

And it got me thinking about how much a property’s location influences its appeal, its character and ultimately the way we experience living in it.

But living by the coast doesn’t necessarily mean wanting a coastal-inspired interior.

One of the things I love about interior design is that every home, and every client, is different. Whilst the setting is undoubtedly special, the interiors should first and foremost reflect the personalities, lifestyles and individual tastes of the people who live there.

For this project, we’re creating a warm, timeless and beautifully considered home, rather than following a particular coastal aesthetic.

It’s about making the most of the property’s wonderful position whilst creating interiors that feel personal, comfortable and entirely right for our clients.

Because a beautiful location might be what draws you to a property, but it’s how the home makes you feel that makes you want to stay.

One of the most important parts of interior design isn’t choosing beautiful finishes individually — it’s knowing how to bring them together to create something that feels effortlessly harmonious.

A little glimpse into the finishes for my latest interior design project, where every colour, texture and material has been carefully considered.

The warmth of smoked oak, the softness of natural stone, the subtle elegance of porcelain cabinetry and the timeless character of antique brass.

Each finish has its own personality, but the real skill lies in understanding how they complement one another — balancing warm and cool tones, introducing contrast, layering textures and creating a sense of flow from one space to the next.

It’s about looking beyond individual samples and seeing the bigger picture. How materials respond to natural light, how colours change throughout the day, and how each element contributes to the overall feeling of a home.

Because good interior design isn’t about everything matching. It’s about everything belonging.

And for me, that’s where the magic happens.

A little more to share as this lovely project comes together.

It’s often the smallest decisions that make an interior feel truly considered.

The exact tone of timber. The warmth of the grain. How it sits alongside the flooring, cabinetry, paint colours and fabrics. Whether one finish feels just a little too yellow, too grey, too polished or simply not quite right.

These details can seem tiny when you’re looking at them individually, but together they’re what create a room that feels cohesive, warm and effortless.

Interior design isn’t just about choosing beautiful things. It’s about making hundreds of small decisions and ensuring they all speak the same language.

Because when the details are right, you may not always notice why a space feels good.

You just know that it does. 🤎

There’s always a moment in a renovation project when things look a little less beautiful before they begin to come back to life.

The scaffolding is going up at our Looe project, and with it comes the start of a much bigger transformation.

I’ve always loved the idea that sometimes things have to be deconstructed to make space for something new. Walls opened, old layers stripped away, structures strengthened and spaces reconsidered — not to erase what was there before, but to give the building the chance to become what it could be.

There will be dust, disruption and plenty of moments when it feels like we’re taking several steps backwards. But beneath all of that, a new home is slowly beginning to emerge.

And with a view like this as the backdrop, it’s going to be rather special. 🤍

Why Organic Mediterranean Interiors Are Trending

There’s a reason Organic Mediterranean interiors are having such a moment.

Rooted in simplicity, craftsmanship and a deep connection to nature, this style feels warm, relaxed and quietly luxurious — a welcome move away from spaces that feel overly polished or overly designed.

Think limewashed walls, softly textured plaster, aged timber, natural stone, linen, woven fibres and handcrafted ceramics. The palette is sun-washed and earthy: chalky whites, warm sand, terracotta, olive, to***co and muted coastal blues.

What makes the look feel so inviting is its imperfection. Organic Mediterranean design celebrates uneven surfaces, natural patina and materials that become more beautiful with time. Rather than filling a room, the emphasis is on carefully chosen pieces with sculptural form, texture and soul.

Curved architecture, oversized pottery, relaxed linen upholstery and rustic timber create softness, while strong natural materials keep the space grounded. And instead of decoration for decoration’s sake, artwork becomes an important part of the atmosphere — bringing colour, emotion and individuality into an otherwise restrained interior.

Perhaps its growing appeal is also about how we want our homes to feel.

Calmer. Warmer. More connected to nature. Less concerned with perfection.

Organic Mediterranean style captures the feeling of slow summer days, coastal landscapes and homes designed to be lived in — making it particularly beautiful for modern coastal interiors.

It isn’t simply a trend. It’s a return to natural materials, thoughtful craftsmanship and spaces that feel timeless, soulful and deeply personal.

There are interiors where art is added at the end — and then there are rooms like this, where the artwork becomes the starting point.

Here, the large-scale abstract piece that is unquestionably the centrepiece. Its layers of deep ocean blue, turquoise and luminous aqua immediately draw the eye, creating a focal point that gives the entire room its sense of identity.

Set against the dark charcoal stone wall, the colours feel even more vivid. The contrast gives the painting space to breathe while allowing its movement, texture and light to take centre stage.

What makes the room feel so beautifully considered is the way the interior quietly responds to the artwork rather than competing with it. Navy armchairs and blue-patterned cushions echo the deeper tones within the painting, while the cream sofa, natural timber and woven textures soften the palette and bring warmth to the space.

Beyond the windows, the ocean becomes part of the composition too. The blues of the artwork appear to continue naturally towards the sea, creating a connection between the interior and the landscape outside.

This is the power of choosing art as the centrepiece of a room. A significant painting does more than fill a wall. It can establish the colour palette, influence the materials and textures around it, create atmosphere and ultimately give a space its soul.

In a beautifully designed coastal home, art doesn’t have to be the finishing touch.

Sometimes, it should be where the whole story begins.
