The clients wanted a home that was not only aesthetically pleasing but would also support their well-being using biophilic design and colour psychology.

Aesthetically the clients requested a ‘contemporary-meets-traditional’ style for their inter-connected living and dining room, reusing some of their existing, brown furniture where it fitted into the scheme. They were looking for a calming space that felt bright and airy. To support this feeling, we suggested using a palette of greens, a restful colour indicative of balance and harmony, and light off-white colours. The dark wooden floor grounds the scheme, and a mix of natural materials add a connection to nature (biophilic design).
