is, to English taste, always paramount, and showy vulgarity is
to be abhorred and avoided above all.
But real luxury is not about excess; it describes the
apogee of comfort and style. Uncompromising quality and
extravagance.
In fact, despite this commendable national restraint, many
British names epitomise luxury and style.
Luxury and adornment are not anathema to British taste.
What is really important in any design, whether minimalist
or extravagantly opulent, is how well it is done.
You only have to look at the great historic country houses
of England and Ireland. The great land-owners wanted
luxury, beauty and of course, status, and were prepared to
pay for it. The rich baroque gilt-wood carving, the imported

and perfect proportion, and raised their gloriously
embellished interiors to sublime levels.

increasingly knowledgeable customers have come to expect

In the design world, colour is already popping up

e’re living in an age of supersize,
where everything in our homes,
from our sofas to our cookers to our
showers, is growing. This enlarging of
everyday objects helps to create wow
factor and gives a little bit of drama to
our daily rituals. The trend extends all
the way to the bedroom, where, thanks
have grown to extraordinary proportions, both horizontally -
and vertically.
It’s no surprise to learn that Kingsize beds now outsell
standard doubles and that people are going even larger still,
stretching out comfortably into Superking and Emperor size
versions. Yes, big beds are now the norm, but if you really
want to make a statement in the bedroom, it’s all about the
headboard, and, you guessed it, the bigger the better!
Supersized headboards are the latest bedroom trend. If the
room can support it, they should be at least the size of the
bed. In some cases they have grown to run the length of the
wall, creating a soft, pillowy backdrop against which you can
rest your weary head.
They look equally fabulous taken upwards but, again, it’s
about playing with scale. The vertical height of the board
bed reaching for the stars.
With such large proportions at play, choosing the right
design is vital. Think of the supersized headboard as a piece
of art that will dictate the style of a room. It needs to make
just the right amount of impact and it has to have longevity.
To recreate the warmth and softness of a luxury boudoir,
the fashion is for upholstered boards, and you can have a lot
of fun with these. Statement fabrics have taken over from the
statement wallpaper trend we saw ten years ago, so rich, bold
colours, stripes and geometric patterns are popular themes.
This type of board is not for the faint-hearted - it makes a big
impact, but done well, looks fabulous.
There is also a move towards neutral colours where the
emphasis is more on texture. Leather, suede, linen and velvet
are popular choices, adding a touchy-feely element to the
board - the adult version of a cuddly soft toy. These boards
have less drama than a highly patterned or coloured version,
but they do create a soft, cosy focal point nonetheless.
It’s the little design details on a board that really help
the perimeter give it a cool, urban vibe, while deep, plush
buttoning suggests the formal elegance of a country retreat.
Pleating, piping and beading all add character while the
room.
Bespoke options are available which means headboards can
there is a low ceiling or a beam to take into consideration.
They can even come with cut-out allowances for skirting
boards.
As bedrooms evolve into master suites and start to double
up as spaces for watching TV, reading or working on the
computer, an upholstered headboard makes a lot of sense.
They are big on comfort and big on style and give a room an
instant visual talking point.
Dream big and then dream even bigger and you’ll start to
get a feel for the proportions you should be aiming for!
Supersized headboards are big on style and big on comfort says Brent Cooper

aybe it’s the timeless all American
East Coast aesthetic of the
Hamptons, maybe it’s the architecture,
the colours, the tradition built on
superior craftsmanship, or it could be
the optimistic look of the New England
lifestyle that gives this trend global
appeal.
I am from Sweden, but the Hamptons
feels like home. In the past, there were many Swedish settlers
on the East Coast of America, so it’s also no wonder that this
look has elements of Scandinavian design. In the Hamptons,
beauty is often simple and uncomplicated but always features
an elegant fusion of nature’s colours and premium textures.
Visits to the east coast of the USA evoke strong feelings,
the white houses, the white picket fencing stretching along
the long sandy beaches, Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard,
Harvard and Yale. New England is more than a location, it
is a lifestyle. The style stands for something positive - light,
fresh and natural. It is classic with a fashion twist in hues of
blue, white, red and beige combined with stripes and checks.
This look is all about staying true to the American
tradition of superior craftsmanship, a trend that builds on
the understated elegance and inspiration from this part of
the world and so is timeless in design. There are people all
around the world, in all countries, that enjoy this style of
life. With the New England look the possibilities to combine
colours and styles, whether you live in the city or in the
countryside, are endless.
We all want to feel the heritage and seek things that last for
a longer time than before. The Hamptons is all about simple
These elements add to the global appeal of the Scandinavian
inspired New England style.
This area of the coast also invites wonderful seasons that
obviously translate to a variety of international climates.
Think crisp bedding, waking to the bright Spring light and
then taking a morning beach walk in the fresh air. Bursts of
colour combined with the lightweight textiles and patterns
that embody the Hamptons aesthetic.
Another of life’s simple pleasures is the joy of outdoor
dining at the weekend with family and friends in the Summer
time. Table linens in a charming mix of plaid, chambray and
stripes that give the gathering a warm feel, simple yet elegant
ceramics lets the focus be where it should - on the meal and
guests.

and a great book.
And decorating your home is a real seasonal pleasure where
everyone can join in. The table is set, candles are lit as close
friends and family arrive with excitement.
New England is a design style that is an emotional, seasonal,
international and personal way of life, for everyone.

recent years is declining as buyers look
for furniture that will stand the test
of time. The decrease is in the wake
of homeowners looking to invest in
timeless quality that will last rather than
spending on fashion led pieces which are
not always as robust.
A bespoke sofa or chair will guarantee exacting preference
or standards, ensuring that the customer will be able to enjoy

Sofas are much more than just furniture – they are an
expression of a customer’s individuality. A sofa is an essential
piece of furniture that should be an investment purchase –
over the years we spend hundreds of hours sitting on them –
so choosing a good quality frame is imperative.
years to come. In some cases we’ve had customers that have
revisited us just to re-upholster their sofa – simply because
they loved the shape and size and thought it unnecessary to
throw away a perfectly good frame.
Savvy interior shoppers and interior designers are craving
variation and excitement when they shop for furniture for the
shopper looking for statement pieces that will create a ‘wow’
factor in a room.
Oversized footstools, occasional chairs and chaise longues
are proving extremely popular – especially with interior
designers – who are looking for something that will add
excitement to a scheme that they have designed for a client.
Multi-functional furniture is on-trend, for example, extra-
accessorised with dramatic gilded trays – very Parisian Chic.
Occasional chairs upholstered in fabulous statement prints
are being selected to complement larger sofas – whether to
add a pattern pop or to expertly clash with an alternative
classic shapes with contemporary fabrics is one way that
homeowners are ensuring a sofa will carry them through the
years without looking dated.
We recently built a traditionally shaped occasional chair
and upholstered it in a modern, limited edition Christian
tartan.
Smaller statement chairs are often added to a scheme to
add a focal point into a room. They are also being used
to dress hallways, landings and larger bedrooms - chaise
longues work well and are particularly striking in the
bedroom, at the base of the bed, or placed in a large bay
window.
British credentials and sourcing materials responsibly is a
factor that more shoppers are looking for when purchasing

The constraints of the formal living room is a thing of the past says Bea Pila
s an interior designer, there is
nothing more unfortunate than a
beautiful room left unused. Yet, many
of us have at least one abandoned space
within our homes.
Traditional design called for parlours
or other formal settings in which to
entertain guests. They would have tea
Sounds divine, but the lifestyles of today are much more
demanding. There is work, family, and all other daily duties
in between. Who has time to polish the silver?
While our lifestyles have evolved, our homes haven’t
quite yet caught on. Why are we still using up precious
square footage on parlours as if we’ll revisit those days of
ceremonious socialisation? A few simple design changes can
lure activity back to these spaces.
There is nothing like a bar to capture people’s attention. If
space or budget constraints excludes a custom built-in, there
are beautiful armoire-like pieces that open up. Even a simple
bar cart or arranging a console with various tray accessories
can do the trick. If you’re not a drinker, opt for a set-up of
Room set-up is also a crucial factor. With a classic sofa, it’s
hard for us to engage because we’re facing front, not each
a chair. A favourite layout of mine is four club chairs with
auxiliary seating - poufs, garden stools, and other smaller
tables, I prefer party-height tables of 27 inches for access
to hors d’oeuvres without feeling hunched over or banging
limbs.
While luxurious fabrics and delicate detailing are stunning
to look at, fancy furnishings can be intimidating.
Thus, aesthetic should be matched with durability and a
sense of ease - we want to feel comfortable enough to sit back
and relax. Some of my favorite pieces incorporate acrylic,
and hair-on-hide for a rustic, glamour factor; exotic woods
to bring warmth; and chrome for a chic and shiny touch.
Combined together, they create an upscale look, yet maintain
a functionality.
Games are a great way to engage and build upon family
time. The trick here is to keep them out and on display, make
gaming a central theme with card tables and other playful
vignettes. There are beautiful vintage editions of classics to
maintain a level of sophistication and smaller pieces, such
as dominos, mahjong tiles, and decks of cards can be kept in
accessory bowls or vases.
Music is also a wonderful atmosphere setter. Instruments
are pieces of art in and of themselves and should be front
who aren’t musically gifted, you can still set the tone with
surround sound systems that reach key entertaining rooms.
No matter what theme you use to entice socialisation,
lighting is essential. We can’t relax in a space that’s too
bright. My number one rule is to have a dimmer. If the space
can handle it, combine with table lamps and candles to cast
softer, soothing glows.
that inspire you. If you can’t be drawn in, then how can you
expect others to want to be there? So, so long traditional
design notions.... it’s time to really start living in our living
rooms.■B

OUTDOOR DESIGN | Wilson McWilliam
myself as a spaceaholic, I
love designing big gardens, I have
found myself suddenly faced with
a clamour for all things small:
designing small gardens, writing
about small gardens and speaking
about them.
Although we might think about
small gardens as a local phenomenon in our own city
or town, they are in fact a global issue for all urban
dwellers.
Our gardens are getting smaller year by year as
population density in major cities increases. For some
city dwellers their only outdoor space is now a balcony
and with the average UK garden now only 90m², it’s
easy to see how some gardens must be really tiny.
A host of issues come with spatially challenged
plots. High density living compromises privacy, with
neighbours close and sometimes looking in from above.
The more we try to enclose our gardens or create arbors
or pergolas to screen from prying eyes, the more we
contribute to the sense of enclosure and to shade.
Most boundary and screening structures cast shadows into the
garden, sometimes restricting use and always restricting planting
options. We need to plant for prevailing conditions, choosing
shade tolerant species rather than roses or colourful perennials
that need the sun.
Planting will soften and screen boundaries but it needs to be big
and bold; no shrinking violets in small gardens. This will help to
disguise physical boundaries and create a more characterful space.
Think about plants with height too as they will link the garden
with the sky.
I recently visited Singapore and Seattle – the former to prepare
for the Singapore Garden Festival later in the year (August
16th
-24th
); the latter to speak at a symposium on small gardens.
Common themes were evident such as the increase in urban
density, larger developments at the expense of garden space and
the use of planting on buildings to create a more sustainable
balance in the urban infrastructure. Gardens hold the key to
healthier cities – the spaces may be small but together they create a
critical planting mass that the city desperately needs for clean air,
sustainable drainage and psychological well being.
For Singapore the incredible humidity means that gardens are
often viewed from temperature controlled interiors whereas in
London we try to open up our interiors to the garden space. Both
approaches need strong planting in order to deliver a punch and a
sense of therapeutic nature.
In Seattle, the concept of shared space as opposed to separate
Streissguth have gardened a plot in Seattle for most of their
married life before handing over 95% to the city authorities and
the wider community. Anyone can come and go, relax in the
garden or help with the gardening. This prevented threatened
development of the site and has become a local treasure.
of small gardens in which we retain space for private use but
green spaces. The garden squares of London did exactly that and
are now considered a great London assets. What goes around
comes around perhaps; what do we have to lose?

DESIGN NEWS | lighting project
ohnny Grey had a surprising and unusual request
which turned into a challenging and exciting concept,
when he was approached by a client with a indoor
swimming pool project.
Johnny dislikes indoor swimming pool’s slabs of
ceramic tiles and often monochrome paint work, but the
architectural aspect of this project was unusual – it needed
to match a collection of Japanese inspired wooden houses
imported from California.
Constructed in Oregon pine, mostly rough hewn, with
bark stripped tree trunks, it had a positively graspable
nature’ response.
He has created a sumptuous space that is dramatic and
beautiful by both day and night.
Mixing traditional stone and huge wooden beams with
contemporary glass and lighting, this swimming pool area
includes a spa, relaxed seating and bespoke changing areas
and all with a view into the gardens outside.
Bold and unique features add a splash of colour to the
changing areas, including a fuschia themed room and
wooden dividers with colourful glass sections. The piece
de resistance is a bespoke bench and shelf, made from a
combination of dark wood and crisp, white Corian.
He worked closely with Rebecca Weir, Design Director
of Light IQ to create a lighting scheme to compliment and
enhance the space. The exterior lighting had to be subtle
enough to sit quietly within the forest setting.
The sculptural qualities of the build are accentuated with

storage options. The sharp lines of the open-style shelving units continue the perfect
symmetry and allow for injections of soft muted colour.

he Reschio Estate in Umbria, Italy,
is home to the idyllic Spinaltermine,
designed with Count Benedikt Bolza.
The villa is one of nine intensely private
properties on this 3,000 acre estate, and perhaps
the most secluded.
At the end of its own three kilometers private
drive, this beautiful retreat was a complete ruin
when I embarked on the project.
This land is steeped in history, with
Spinaltermine commanding views down the
beyond. With acres of vineyards, olive groves,
lakes and gardens it’s hard to imagine anything closer to paradise than the
Reschio Estate.
Back in 1994, Count Antonio Bolza, head of the Bolza family purchased
the estate and along with his son, architect and designer Benedikt Bolza,
the crumbling buildings and surrounding acres of land

have been given a new life with their pureblood Andalusian stud at its
heart.Spinaltermine’s simple stone wall exterior was to set the tone for
this interior. Using pale timber beams, brickwork lintels and a carefully
curated collection of bespoke furniture I was able to create a tranquil
living environment.
Using a warm and neutral palette, with considered attention to
textures, this rural home with its high ceilings and beautiful vistas through
the bespoke window frames allows the surrounding landscape to glow
through the windows. With some noble treasures used throughout the
property, each space features some exceptional pieces of design.
Although the building was a complete ruin, we were able to retain the
original feel by maintaining some of the existing stonework which is so
striking, particularly in the dining room.
Due to such extensive building work, we were also able to incorporate
all the key standard requirements that come with such a stunning
property, such as state of the art appliances and lighting technologies.
The pool area offers an alternative alfresco dining area, with a hideaway during the intense sunlight in the summer months. The outdoor upholstery fabric
is by Summit. A perfect outdoor spot early evening. With a terrace to the side of the kitchen, it’s a perfect spot to enjoy the morning light with a coffee
