This is a beautiful home with elegant proportions enjoyed by a fun and busy family. I was asked to design a large bookcase to house TV, audio, books and treasures that would suit the scale of the room. I also redesigned the fire surround; removing previous embellishments and building it back up again with appropriate profiles and proportions. We also added colour and pattern with custom ottoman, chair, lampshade and cushions. The cricket table is an original KDID design made in oak and stained to complement client's other furniture. In the adjoining dining room we designed a customised window seat to suit the skirtings and architectural profiles comprising two filing drawers and an internal cupboard. The squab, covered in high performance fabric completes the very comfortable sunny nook.
