This project consisted of a farmhouse with two large barns: a “party” barn for the adults and a kids’ barn. A complete refurbishment was undertaken, including a large kitchen/snug extension built on to the Farmhouse. As the Farmhouse had to be completely furnished from top to bottom, our client wanted help with making the place feel like everything had evolved over time. They also wanted “colour” introduced into all the rooms.
The colours and patterns used here by design firm Compton Smith Interiors exude a soft, welcoming charm that feels both timeless and gently whimsical. The vibe is rooted in rustic tradition but it’s lifted and lightened by a palette of blues, greens, yellows and reds that jive so well together.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Cucina Regina by Tom Mark Henry.

Kirsten Blazek of A1000XBetter transformed this Spanish-style Ojai home into a soulful retreat grounded in sustainability and warmth. Sun-washed walls, earthy tones, and a thoughtful blend of vintage and contemporary elements create a whimsical yet grounded atmosphere. A former garage was reimagined as a tranquil one-bedroom apartment, completing a design that is both practical and reflective of the clients.

Set within a crescent of grand Victorian villas, this five-bedroom London home has been in the same family for generations. Sims Hilditch transformed the interiors for a young family, introducing colour, pattern, and softness while preserving its historic charm. Existing furniture was refreshed, original joinery restored, and new architectural flow created. Highlights include a rhubarb-red kitchen island, reupholstered heirloom pieces, layered patterns, and a reconfigured principal suite. Throughout, playful yet elegant touches bring warmth and character, blending tradition with a relaxed, modern sensibility.
