HOUSE BEAUTIFUL

---

'WE WANTED OUR BATHROOM TO LOOK BIGGER' A mirrored wall and a painted ceiling are just two of the decorating tricks that have been used to create an illusion of space in this compact room

STYLISHLY SIMPLE: A tonal palette in shades of grey gives this home a layered monochrome feel, softened with a wealth of textiles and personal touches

INTO THE WOODS: Childhood memories were the inspiration behind the building of this cosy but unconventional home - and the start of a new business venture

STYLE FOR SIZE: A colour scheme of mustard yellow and dark grey runs throughout this Victorian property, uniting the rooms and creating a feeling of space

'PINTEREST WAS THE INSPIRATION FOR MY NEW LOOK BATHROOM' Dramatic colours, vivid patterned tiles and a trove of vintage treasures turned a dated family bathroom into an indulgent space 

TOUGH LOVE: Natural materials, contemporary finishes and a monochrome palette give this city terrace an industrial-chic feel 

SEASIDE ESCAPE: A tranquil coastal colour scheme reflects the peaceful setting of this harbourside cottage

NATURAL APPROACH: Wood and metal blend beautifully to create a simple layered look in keeping with the architecture of this home 

DREAMING OF THE SEA: First time renovators have transformed a rundown 1930s flat in Sussex into a sophisticated home
