A completely bespoke home in London

Posted on Fri, 17 Oct 2025 by KiM

This home required a full refurbishment from top to bottom where the existing space was gutted, and the layout was completely reimagined. The brief was to create something impactful, unique and fun that suited both the adults, and their three children. The space needed to be practical, with plenty of storage and room for the children to grow and have their independence whilst also giving the adults their own oasis of calm in the formal living room and master suite. The client trusted us to create bold and playful schemes in every room which completely transformed the house from a traditional property, to something truly unique. So many of the design decisions in this property are bespoke, and everything about it is personal to the client, resulting in a one-of-a-kind home.
The drama and whimsy, attention to detail in every space, the impactful colours used make this home really unique and full of personality. Designed by Mia Karlsson. Photos: Ben Sage.

A. Naber Design transformed this dated 1980s house into a Modern Spanish retreat through a full interior and exterior renovation. The project balances functionality with refined detail, blending everyday comfort with a sense of craftsmanship and character. Arched ceilings, richly toned walls, and handmade tile infuse warmth and texture, while thoughtful updates create a seamless flow. The result is a timeless, inviting home that captures the essence of contemporary California living.

Previously an uninhabitable 19th-century relic left untouched, tucked away on a rural property in Regional Victoria, the owners requested Greg Natale perform a complete restoration, including the rebuild of the façade to include a tiled porch and front garden. Now a charming one-bedroom homestay for friends and family, Barwon Cottage is a fusion of colourful upholstery and contemporary eclecticism in an English Country house style. Inside, a cosy living room features sink-in seating stacked with cushions, stationed around a Federation-era marble hearth. From the floral rug to checked Roman blinds, this room is thoughtfully layered with intricate prints and chintz textiles in muted heritage colours, true to the English Country house aesthetic. Throughout the home, exposed wood on the floors and ceilings connects with the rural setting with a rustic touch and a subtle nod to the home’s history. In the bedroom, the earthy green striped wallpaper, teal-checked carpet and opulent blue upholstery impart richness and warmth, while olive-green joinery and botanical wallpaper from Ralph Lauren keep the kitchen bright and cheery. Each room is complete with brass details and elegant swathes of marble, along with animal print and fringe trims for some good old-fashioned fun.
Greg Natale does it again, and is after my own heart. I have been loving English country style as of late but he of course takes it to a level of chic that I absolutely love.

Nefariousd Design has transformed a tired two-storey terrace in central London into a warm, characterful home full of personality. Clever spatial reworking and sensitive restoration introduced light, flow, and modern comfort while retaining its original charm. Inside, the client’s eclectic style shines through—velvet sofas, marble counters, and brass details sit alongside vintage finds and modern art. Warm oak floors, bespoke joinery, and layered textures create a relaxed, inviting atmosphere. The result is a spirited, contemporary London home that feels both timeless and deeply personal.
