There’s something about the first cooler evenings that makes us notice our homes again. Rooms that felt perfectly fine during summer can suddenly seem a little bare, cold or unfinished. Autumn doesn’t have to mean completely redecorating. Changing the lighting, introducing warmer colours and texture, rearranging furniture or finally dealing with that awkward room can make an enormous difference. This is also the ideal time to start planning any rooms you’d love completed bef

When people tell me their living room feels a bit flat, more often than not, it’s the styling that’s missing. Cushions might seem like a small detail, but they’re one of the hardest-working pieces in a room. They soften sharp lines, add warmth and texture and help a space feel finished rather than simply furnished and help link the colours together. I often leave choosing them until towards the end of a project because that’s when I know exactly what the room needs. Sometime

Behind every calm, beautiful finished space is a group of people who turn up when they say they will, work hard, and care about the details just as much as I do.
