Kate Malone Interiors project
Victorian villa complete refurbishment
This Victorian property had been untouched since the 1970s. Thoughtful and imaginative space planning was central to our design solution. We completed an extensive build and refurbishment, creating space for an indoor swimming pool, 2 bedrooms and bathrooms in a loft conversion, a fabulous kitchen in a rear extension and a large basement excavation with subterranean gym, office and guest accommodation. We carried out a full internal refurb and worked with a talented landscape architect to bring flow and harmony through the house and garden.

In this gorgeous room we combined bespoke furniture, some fabulous lights from Porta Romana and inherited antiques. We used the same base colour palette throughout the house, giving it some depth in this room to give it more of a cocooning feel as an evening adult space

We extended to the rear and side of this Victorian property and created an L shape kitchen, dining room, living space which is configurable for the client's preference for large scale entertaining - particularly in the summer when the entire back wall can be pushed aside to create a huge indoor / outdoor social space. Yet, on a day to day basis, it is a great space for family living.

We continued a bespoke parquet floor into this cute little downstairs loo. The client had this rather lovely antique gilded mirror and we chose an interesting piece of stone, keeping the basin and wall hung vanity very simple yet stylish.

This master suite is the pinnacle of elegant. With a rich velvet pile carpet, a couple of stunning pieces of antique furniture, silk fabrics and wallpaper from Zoffany it's a very comfortable, grown up bedroom. We chose a very elegant bath for the master en suite, had curved alcove basin vanity units made to mirror the sinuous nature of the bath and had hand blown glass pendants made for both bedroom and bathroom.

Who knew a piece of music could be a brief for a fun kids room. We squeezed in 2 bunk beds, 1 additional pull-out truckle bed, ample storage for clothes, a special store for stuffed toys, climbing wall, play platform and access to a secret 'fairy woodland' in the loft space up a hidden ladder. Hats off to the carpenter with whom we developed this idea as he really brought the client's vision to life!
