Embracing the imperfect

Posted on Mon, 10 Jul 2023 by KiM

Essex, London based designer Fiona Duke believes great interior design really can the way you feel and ultimately make you happier. Using a mix of modern and vintage styles to create an eclectic yet elegant relaxed ‘effortless’ aesthetic. we believe that designing with a mic of styles creates a far more authentic way of living and helps to embrace the beauty of the ‘imperfect” into every design.
The lively colours and casual vibe, personality and overall cheerfulness of these spaces designed by Fiona are giving me all the feels.

A colourful London Loft

“An eclectic apartment based around a client’s wonderful collection of art and objets. We embraced the industrial elements of this former tannery and chose a vibrant palette which extended to the bespoke kitchen which was handmade to make the most of the unusual space.”

Two colourful London homes today. I couldn’t think of anything better. As for that green kitchen? YES!!! Loft Apartment by Howark Design.

“A mid-century house in the West London neighbourhood of Holland Park, that had been the client’s childhood home. Lonika was tasked with making the house more comfortable, more contemporary and more functional, breathing new life into the house whilst still preserving its history. Alongside the structural changes, Lonika focused on bringing in colour. Each room is now filled with colour and decorative objects that have meaning and family connection.”

A kaleidoscope of colour layered with playful textures and pattern. Fun, fabulous and fresh. Holland Park residence by Lonika Chande.

Pretty in pink

A designer’s own home is always chock-a-block with inspiration. Now imagine it’s the home of two interior designers. This Southwest London 3-bedroom flat is home to sisters Sarah and Caroline Stemp of Sascal Studio. Think palest pink, checkerboard and stripes and a custom work desk for two.

Applied colour

With its post war modernist bones it would be easy to reproduce a retro 50’s decor or worse demo and create a bare modern interior. Instead Warsaw-based interior design firm Colombe celebrated the building painting everything white then appling pops of colour framed like works of art and filling it with a mix of midcentury and contemporary pieces. Fun, fabulous and fresh, a liveable, loveable family home.
