"How do you make a drawing room smart enough for formal occasions, yet relaxed enough that a young family can bounce around the space too? That was the brief one of our clients recently gave us in her Georgian farmhouse. Keeping it light and airy was key to the project - and finding unusual pieces to cover the furniture with was important too. A couple of our larger sofas and a chair worked well in the space and made for relaxed seating (and bouncing), which we sourced an elegant Kilim to upholster a club fender that complemented the antique hessian we chose for an octagonal ottoman. One of the biggest joys in this project was working closely alongside the client to source the different upholstery materials, including an exquisite antique Turkish braid, that helped ensure the end result was just right."
