Quintessentially English

Posted: 04 Nov 2021 05:00 AM PDT

What do you think of when you think quintessentially English interiors? My mind fills with images of wallpaper and chintz, over stuffed armchairs and family antiques, lamps with pleated shades on tables, entry hallways leading the eye to stairs with runners, country style kitchens and roll top baths. Its pattern on pattern and passementerie. Heaven forbid a curtain isn’t trimmed or a cushion doesn’t have a fringe. It’s attention to the little details but most importantly it’s about a welcoming, cosy home. It’s this Townhouse in London’s SE24 by Laura Stephens.

Sophisticated rustic

“Complete rehabilitation project of a house in the mythical town of Pedraza. Maintaining the amazing aesthetic of the place, a large staircase makes its presence at the entrance, becoming the main character of the house. From there, structural elements and rustic furniture, transform the rural house to a place with an industrial touch.”

Sophisticated living in a rustic shell. Gilt and linen, stone and velvet. Contemporary pieces sit with country antiques. The scene is set by Madrid-based Belén Ferrándiz for an elegant country town sojourn.

If things like maximalism, layered patterns upon patterns, archways and colour are up your alley then may I present to you some pretty extraordinary spaces by Dallas designer Michelle Nussbaumer (of Ceylon et Cie), including the epic blue and white tiled kitchen in her home in San Miguel de Allende. This woman is in a league of her own and I cannot get enough.
