The bedroom next door felt dark and cramped, with beige carpet, dark wood doors and two big, hefty wardrobes. On the top floor of the Victorian conversion, the bathroom was a teeny space in the eaves, accessed from the hallway. When I first visited the property, the bedroom and bathroom were two separate spaces. I’ll be revealing the rest of the space shortly, but for now it’s time to take a peek inside the master bedroom and ensuite. It needed gutting – replacing rotten windows, installing new internal doors and handles, ripping up the carpet for wooden flooring, repainting and so on. The property had been used as a rental and hadn’t been decorated in decades while the owners had been living abroad. This was one of my first big projects as a solo designer – a complete renovation of a three bedroom Victorian maisonette in south west London, including a new kitchen and two new bathrooms.

So I’m thrilled these homeowners let me come back and take some snaps for my site! I hope you like this project as much as I do… Today I’m so excited to reveal a minimalist monochrome bedroom and ensuite that I designed recently for a client! This is the first project of mine that I’ve ever featured on the blog beyond my own home – some clients, quite understandably, don’t want their home published to the world, while others opt for one or two consultations for advice on much smaller re-style projects.
