Polly Ashman, a London-based interior designer with a background in building and project management, specialises in residential properties. Her West London home underwent a complete transformation, including top and bottom extensions and a full overhaul of electrics and plumbing. With many original features lost over time, she carefully reinstated them, creating a vibrant, characterful space filled with colour, rich textures, curated art and distinctive antique finds that reflect her creative vision.

This one is for all of you colour-lovers, fans of over-the-top maximalism. North Carolina designer Charlotte Lucas completely transformed this Georgian home in Raleigh, North Carolina with a dramatic and colourful blend of colours and patterns and shapes and textures and everything in between! There is a lot going on but it is perfect for the homeowners who were looking for something bold and dramatic. Charlotte definitely understood the assignment. Photos: Chris Edwards

This West London Edwardian home was sensitively renovated, which is evident as soon as you walk through the front door – that floor!!! It is top to bottom charming as h*ll, filled with bold colour choices and personal treasures for an eclectic mix. Character aplenty. Designed by Howark.

This generously proportioned home located in London’s Chelsea neighbourhood was designed as a joyful environment for the client to entertain friends, while also being equipped to cater to the practicalities of family life.

Each space is a feast for the eyes, layered with eclectic antiques and custom-made furniture that effortlessly reflect the client’s flair for fashion and design.
Designer Bryan O’Sullivan added tons of character, playfulness and some serious doses of colour and pattern to this home as requested by the homeowner for her and her three-year-old son in this pied-à-terre. It’s the perfect mix of adult sophistication and childlike whimsy. Photos: Helen Cathcart; Styling: Sara Mathers.

This cinema room by designers Owl reflects the studio’s ethos that well-considered design can enhance everyday life. Fusing function and form, Owl crafts interiors with natural materials, fresh colours and organic shapes that feel instinctively uplifting. For an underground linking room in a Grade II Mid-Century Modern house in Hertfordshire, the team created a joyful, dual-purpose playroom and cinema. Inspired by the client’s love of Wes Anderson and the children’s passion for trains, bespoke modular furniture enables seamless day-to-night transformation.
