Absolute Project Management project

3 bedroom Victorian end of Terrace Renovation in Hove

See Absolute Project Management profile

 We created a welcoming house with updated layout and redecoration throughout .

Extensive damp & water penetration problems were successfully addressed with roof repairs, damp coursing and improved ventilation. Glazing & insulation were upgraded to improve energy efficiency and comfort, and reduce noise.

A colour palette of rich jewel tones is complemented with luxurious biophilic detail, including bold floral wallpaper, oak joinery and light fittings in brass, wood and opal glass.

We are looking forward to helping the clients with renovating the rest of their home.

We identified and overcame problem areas including a cramped loft space, and badly positioned existing stairs (which had building regulation implications including fire safety and head heights). We co-ordinated a team of experts to make sure the final design overcame these as well as significantly improving the space.

The resulting home is a much larger and more comfortable three bed, and now suits the clients’ lifestyle. It includes a home office, spacious main bedroom, luxurious bathroom, and flexible guest room with folding bed.

We improved insulation, ventilation and sound-proofing and overhauled the exterior, including fitting of a green roof.

The clients love bold colour, so it was a key design consideration. Natural darkness on the ground floor was embraced, using rich jewel tones to add cosiness and luxury. The colour palette then transitions to a clean, light palette as we move up to the top of the house where it is naturally brighter.

Using bold colours has the potential to look eclectic, but careful planning was given throughout to avoid this. Repeated finishes throughout connect the scheme (including parquet flooring, bold florals and reeded glass). Lighting was carefully considered, and the signature plywood staircase now acts as the heart of the house, connecting all elements of the home.

Project Date: 2021 - 2024

  • Teal matchstick tiles add a beautiful feature to this bathroom, paired with a very complimentary bold orange for the walls. Brass fittings add a luxe element, creating a space that is warm and lovely to be in.

  • House of Hackney's Majorelle print in Petrol works beautifully as a feature wallpaper here, as well as velvet interior curtains to help retain heat in the living area. Parquet wood flooring, complimentary blue wall paint and accessories help finish the space.

  • Soft greens and blush combine in this calming bedroom. A blue tie-dye bedspread adds a touch of pattern, though the room remains relaxing and welcoming. Bespoke walnut wardrobe handles + robe hooks add an organic touch.

  • Ply and oak combine at the staircase to bring an organic touch. Reeded glass for the balustrade is practical and adds a touch of luxe and interest.

  • Aqua gloss tiles, yellow walls and a touch of darker blue combine to reflect the nearby coastal tones, while black Samuel Heath tapware fittings add a contemporary touch.

  • The combined bright blue and softer aqua walls add a strong sense of fun to this cosy welcoming living space, reflecting colours of the nearby seaside. The wood burner adds comfort and a peek of the feature entryway adding warmth.
