Country House Hallway
The interior design for this project has completely transformed this hallway and staircase in this Sussex house. Elizabeth used a herringbone carpet, which she edged with a wide red binding to create continuity with the red carpet that run throughout the upper corridors of the house. The woodwork was painted in Farrow and Ball eggshell which lightened the woodwork and a textured wallpaper was used to soften the large areas of wall space.
Two matching antique lights were sourced from a London vintage shop and were renovated and installed by trades that work closely with Elizabeth. A new bespoke wood storage area was designed by Elizabeth and created from antique pine that she sourced for the client.
To complete the project, Elizabeth matched the original stone flooring as closely as possible with a new Japur Limestone floor which was laid over new underfloor heating.
Country House Striped Runner with Stair-rods
This second staircase in a property in West Sussex (at the bottom of the page) was completely transformed by Elizabeth, who changed the original staircase, which was a dated, orange-coloured pine by specifying the bannisters to be painted and the handrail sanded and stained to a dark colour to create a beautiful contemporary look. A Crucial Trading striped runner with beautiful brass stair-rods finished the staircase beautifully.
These are just two examples of the many beautiful staircases that Elizabeth has created for her clients in Sussex. She has access to many high-end brands such as Roger Oates and Crucial Trading and has an extensive knowledge of techniques to create these stunning interiors.
