Turning our dream home into reality: here’s our 9 month home renovation journey. The real hard work came from our amazing team of builders, carpenters, electricians, plumbers, tilers – thankyou guys, we would’ve been lost without you 💪🏼 !
We were adamant about knocking down walls from the get-go to create an open plan living space but midway Darren, our builder gave us the idea of knocking right through to the garage and opening the entire floor plan up… so that’s what we did!
We threw in some arches, popped in new windows and ensured sustainable material choices were at the top of our agenda.
We were after rustic-modern countryside feel. The limewash technique brought a natural element indoors and the colour was specially curated by the eco friendly yet super luxurious @kalklitir – a beautiful family run business in France which prides itself on sustainability. The art, from my favourite @maddoxgallery gave the room a real burst of life – Jay and his team are the BEST!! Then we finished it off with the warmth of rich @v4woodflooring which elevated the whole room.
The first six months was spent sitting on boxes and making dens on the floor whilst we waited for the furniture to be made, but eventually we got the goods! We fell in love with the effortless chic of @coxandcox linen sofas and everything else lead on from there. Our dream home is now a reality. 🏡✨ * Do you ever stop tweaking your home though? We’re obsessed 😬
Biggest project of my life this has been hahaha. I left my parents’ place at 19 and moved to New York City and lived with a guy from Texas. A kid from Stevenage. From there I went to Brooklyn and onto Los Angeles. Eventually, I made it back across the ocean..From countless apartments with poetry written on the walls and freaky neighbors to mansions in the hills. Nothing felt like home. This does. @iamamyjackson it’s an honor and pleasure. Your eye is incredible. I’ll be sharing more, I hope that’s ok…We designed the whole home ourselves with wonderful help from some amazing people such as those @kalklitir and @v4woodflooring
