OXFORDSHIRE FAMILY HOME

As this family’s three children grew up, the use of some of the rooms of the house needed to change. This large family house in South Oxfordshire was already well-appointed, but there was a new need for a fabulous teen space and for a newly configured guest bedroom suite at the top of the house.

Charlotte worked closely with the family to understand their dreams for the aesthetics of the rooms.

This deep blue velvet corner sofa is large enough to seat 6 comfortably and 8 squished! Placing the wall lights in a symmetrical position either side of the round mirror which reflects the wallpapered ceiling, creates a peaceful vista and adds inter
The sitting room/ TV room/ snug in this Oxfordshire family home is now well-used by the 3 teenagers as well as their parents. It is cosy, warm and comfortable and is practical - offering a space to relax, to socialise and to watch TV and play games.
