Home to a family of 6, or 12 if we’re counting the dogs and cats!!, this place is huge but its interior is all about coming together and hanging out. The interior designer Maddalena Minerva<\/a> was keen to add home comforts; vintage rugs, squishy leather chairs, and rich woods. The warmth of the beams was brought down into the kitchen with rustic oak tops, deVOL Bum Stools and Chairs and a stylish Peg Leg Table made from solid oak. This deVOL design features an unusual \u2018split\u2019 leg joint which is incredibly strong and means the table can be assembled without the need for glue.<\/p>\n

A deliciously deep green was chosen for the cupboards, this hue pairs so well with aged brass hardware and has a way of making furniture feel instantly classic. I love the decision to also opt for dark floors, big limestone tiles from our sister company, Floors of Stone. Their slightly worn appearance makes it look like they’ve been here for years and years.<\/p>\n

An awkward nook provided the perfect spot for a little walk-in pantry, which meant the rest of the kitchen could be kept quite simple with no need for bulky storage. Instead, extra space was cleverly concealed in the lift-up bench seat and impressive island that measured almost 3 and a half metres end to end. Keeping one side open was an important choice here, not only creating a spot to pull up a stool but also preventing such a substantial piece from looking really bulky.<\/p>\n
