Inside Stories: Designer Case Studies (Part 1)
BIID members are invited to attend the latest in our Inside Stories: Designer Case Studies series.
Members will be treated to two inspiring case studies presented by BIID Registered Interior Designers, Bee Osborn and Clare Pascoe. This event is a fantastic opportunity for BIID members to gain insight from two fellow practising designers into real life projects.
With our BIID award-winning speakers providing honest ‘behind the scenes’ stories, guests will obtain knowledge of the practicalities of delivering a successful project, what challenges our speakers encountered, how they dealt with them, and what they were most excited about during their projects. As the speakers share some top tips for working on various design projects, you can be sure to leave this webinar informed and inspired as you look forward to your own upcoming projects.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Over the 90-minute webinar, the designers will introduce their projects and will be available for a short Q&A each following their presentation.
Story 1 - Bee Osborn, Studio Osborn
- Project Name – The Old Post Office
- Project Size – 200 sq. metres
- Completion Date – 30th October 2020
BIID Interior Design Awards 22 – Winner, Midlands and East Anglia
The Old Post Office is a Grade II Listed Cotswold stone thatched cottage dating to the 1540s. The two-up, two-down property included a large barn at the rear. By completely renovating the barn, a new kitchen and dining space was created, and an extension provided a utility room and enlarged master suite.
Studio Osborn’s brief was to maintain and highlight the historical features such as the original stone walls, low-beamed ceilings, and inglenook fireplaces whilst using sympathetic design and materials throughout the renovation.
The project won due to Studio Osborn’s imaginative redesign of this period building, which creatively connects the old with the new. The judges said, ‘it far exceeded… expectations with good use of textures and reclaimed materials.' The judges felt that the layout was well-thought out and that the refurbishment and remodelling of the rooms, plus repurposing the old barn into a kitchen/eating area, has made the cottage into a ‘fully functioning dwelling, eminently suitable for our times.’
Multi award-winning, internationally acclaimed designer Bee Osborn is renowned for creating beautiful spaces in which to live and relax. She brings a personal approach to each client and over the past two decades has designed a vast array of residential and commercial properties, both in the UK and overseas.Inchbald trained, Bee and her professional team provide expertise, attention to detail and exceptional creativity to every project they undertake, whether it is a home or a boutique hotel. Bee draws inspiration from classical design and proportion, but always likes to infuse her work with a modern, up-to-date energy. Together, with her talented team, they produce balanced, harmonious interiors that are both practical and visionary.
Story 2 - Clare Pascoe, Pascoe Interiors
- Project Name - Vernon House
- Project Size – 1,800 sq. metres
- Completion Date – 1st August 2020
BIID Interior Design Awards 22 – Winner, Central London
The designer’s brief was to re-design Vernon House from dated student nurses’ accommodation to highly-desirable, boutique accommodation that embraces its’ enviable central location and welcomes guests to ‘live like a local’ within the community.
The design needed to represent the cosmopolitan character of Primrose Hill; materials were to be visually high specification, yet low maintenance, and physically the designs were to maximise every millimetre, so that the limited space available was no compromise on the facilities provided.
This innovative project won this category for its truly outstanding transformation which showed real creativity. The judges said the end result is a ‘stylish and appealing space,’ and they were impressed with Pascoe Interiors’ response to a challenging brief and for showing great examples of collaboration between different disciplines.
