NEW HARD WOOD FRONT DOOR VICTORIAN STYLE

I finally have got round to getting rid of the White UPVC front door that was on the house when I bought it. I personally think they are the biggest crime to design and in Yorkshire we have all these beautiful victorian stone built houses with horrible white UPVC doors on. The door furniture is by Willow and Stone and the colour is Stone Blue exterior gloss Farrow and Ball .

FURNITURE USED IN NEW INTERIORS - BY LEE BROOM AND TOM DIXON

I have sold quite a few items over the years to Hotels, Bars, Restaurants etc and truthfully I never get to see them in situation. But very nice to see two influential Designers using my items in two new exciting places in London. https://www.morganshotelgroup.com/mondrian/mondrian-london and http://oldtomandenglish.com. Old Tom English is designed by Lee Broom.. go here for article on this http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/nov/15/homes-lee-broom-design-project-old-tom-and-english and for an article on Tom dixons Mondrian Hotel sea containers london. http://www.dezeen.com/2014/09/30/tom-dixon-design-research-studio-mondrian-hotel-london-sea-containers/.

THINGS IN MY HOME - NEW RUNNER - photos of house featuring in Style at Home magazine Oct

I finally got a runner for my stairs, I went to a reputable carpet shop locally and found a carpet that was the same colour as the landing carpet, but a different texture and got it whipped on the edges in a green to match the floor tiles. I love it and it makes such a difference to the stairs. Also here is some pics from my home being feature in a magazine in Nov.

RIP - WILLIAM PLUNKETT

Was yet again sad to hear the passing of William Plunkett, who is a best of British Design hero in my eyes. Glad to see a fitting Obituary for him in the Guardian. If you would like to read it hear it is and there is some previous Blog posts I have done on him in my list.
