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. Salon Her by FOLK STUDIO.











The days are packed, the children are piled on docks and rafts. The clarity of the sky and the water feel endless and pure. Sunkissed kids crash on sofas, exhausted at the end of the day – there is a feeling of health and joy that we know we’ll need for long winter months ahead. This is not your home, this is not a zen spa, this is a summer cabin. Pairings: clementines, sunscreen, popsicles.
Another inspiring project by Prospect Refuge. This one is more modern but with lots of plain-sawn white oak paneling, it has woodsy cabin vibes but it light and bright and perfect for enjoying the warmer months. Photos: Matthew Williams.

















This cosy outbuilding will serve as a games room and a space to enjoy outdoor living come rain or shine. Our clients wanted The Den to be used by all generations as a place to escape, relax and have fun; away from day-to-day life. The bar area with hatch windows that swing open on to a decking area complete with a hot tub and outdoor shower and the mezzanine floor hammocks allow for that playful touch. We transformed this one bed annexe into an open plan living space complete with a kitchenette, bar area, living space, bathroom and a mezzanine. We chose a marriage of natural materials, vivid colour and carefully curated vintage furniture in our design for this very special space. A particular love of ours is how the powdery blue, aubergine, and buttery yellow stand out in equal measure on this little kitchen area.
Such a unique colour palette that gives a vitality to this secondary space and beckons guests over from the main house. Another really fun project by Vaughan Design & Development.












Completely refurbished to accommodate the clients’ family, this typical 1980s home has been modernized to showcase the various vintage pieces amidst a space filled with character, just like its owners. With a strong presence of wood, marble and touches of color, the ambience of each room reflects the Blanc Marine signature as well as the clients’ love of art and antiques, contributing in every way to the unique atmosphere that emanates from this home.
Charlotte-Denys residence designed again by Blanc Marine. I would have never EVER guessed this was a typical boring 1980s home. Lots of dark elements for drama, gold toned woods for some warmth, a sense of calm and old world vibes…I love every element and every inch of this.

This charming period property in Midhurst was in urgent need of an overhaul after being a rental for many years. The ground floor felt very cramped and had an awkward layout, whilst upstairs was riddled with damp issues. We completed a full design and build on this property, with a good sized ground floor extension and a total refurbishment. This allowed for an inviting kitchen and dining area which was perfect for our clients’ to entertain and spend time with their family. Carefully considered colour was injected into all the rooms, together with playful fabrics and unique vintage furniture.
This home is now brimming with personality thanks to the kaleidoscope of colour used throughout. It is tantalizing right from the entryway and invites you inside with open arms. By Vaughan Design & Development.
