A practical home with a real wow factor
This detached house set in a quiet cul-de-sac in Harpenden, Hertfordshire has been redesigned to create an open-plan interior perfect for modern living. Working with the architects and builders I extended the kitchen and family room to create a fantastic light-filled space that looks out onto the garden. This was then decorated in a contemporary, almost minimalist way to create a spacious area for the client to entertain. A green blue colour palette was introduced to work with the pale floor and walnut wood finish in the kitchen and to reinforce the link with the garden. Limestone flooring runs throughout the ground floor to create a practical choice for a house with children and dogs.
"The result is a fantastic home which is practical but has a real 'wow' factor. Even the kids friends love coming round to their cool snug, and our friends constantly remark on what a beautiful home we have. In fact we were so pleased with it that we employed Samantha to design our holiday house in Cornwall." Sally-Anne Gough
