Nature Nurture

A broad brief to refresh the interiors of this tranquil, mountain retreat was met with an earthy palette of natural tones inspired by the spectacular landscape. We were tasked to pull together the existing art and furniture and create a comfortable, cohesive interior.

The interiors were softened with sympathetic new pieces – furniture, soft furnishings, wallpaper, paint and lighting throughout the house. The result is testament to the transformative power of interior decorating.

The success of these interiors lies in the way existing pieces are gently drawn together within the overall scheme. Every room feels warm and inviting – just like the people who live here.

We believe it’s not necessary to replace every item. In some instances, we re-covered existing pieces that were comfortable and had good scale. In others, we made treasured heirlooms the hero.
