OUT IN WHAT SEEMS A COUNTRY ESTATE LAYS A GEORGIAN INSPIRED RESIDENCE DESIGNED WITH FOUR BEDROOMS INCLUDING A LUXURY HOTEL STYLE MASTER SUITE, TWO DINING ROOMS, FORMAL AND INFORMAL LIVING ROOMS, A RETREAT ON THE SECOND LEVEL, A STUDY, STUDIO, LUXURIOUS BATHROOMS, POWDER ROOM AND LUSHES’ GARDENS WITH A FORMAL SUNKEN GARDEN AND WATER FEATURES.

RECENTLY RE-MODELLED CHRISTINE FOUND SOME EXISTING FEATURES WHERE JUST SO SUITED TO THE HOME THAT THEY WERE SPARED FROM BEING REPLACED. THE INFORMAL LIVING AREAS WERE TREATED TO NEW SUMPTUOUS SOFAS DESIGNED BY CHRISTINE WHO SAYS SHE IS OFTEN GUILTY OF DESIGNING MORE FOR VISUAL IMPACT BUT COMFORT ALWAYS FOLLOWS. THE INFORMAL DINING ROOM AND LIVING AREA HAVE A SENSE OF GLAMOUR NOT THAT IT WAS HER INTENTION BUT CHRISTINE EXPLAINS IT SEEMS SHE GRAVITATES TO LUSHES’ FABRICS AND SHINY PRECIOUS MATERIALS AND OBJECTS.

THE ACRYLIC DINING TABLE THAT WAS HAND CARVED IN ITALY IS EYE CATCHING AND SUCH WAS HER LOVE FOR THE PIECE SHE PAIRED IT WITH THE MATCHING COFFEE TABLE. THE CHROME PENDANT FILLED WITH HAND BLOWN GLASS SPHERES IS THE MOST TALKED ABOUT PIECE AND OMITS THE MOST TRANQUIL SOFT LIGHT WHEN LIT. TURNING HER ATTENTION TO THE FLOORING ON THE UPPER LEVEL CHRISTINE DECIDED IT WOULD BE ESSENTIAL TO FEATURE DIFFERENT PATTERNED CARPETS FOR EACH GUEST ROOM GIVING THEM THEIR OWN INDIVIDUALITY, THE CARPETS ALL CARRIED THE GEOMETRIC THEME WERE HAND TUFTED AND SCULPTED IN INDIA, THE WOOL AND THICKNESS OF THE PILE GAVE THE CARPETS THE MOST EXQUISITE LOOK AND FEEL.
