Formal Reception Room
Wow Factor Lighting
The brief for this job was very specific regarding the colour palette – dusky pinks and purples – and my client had a clear idea of the look they wanted to achieve. We chose the curtain and blind fabric as a starting point, mauve with a leading edge in dusky pink. We also selected a bespoke sofa and an ottoman in mauve giraffe pattern velvet to add some quirkiness to the scheme, as well as a large dining table with upholstered dining chairs.
As I had recently finished another project for this client, I knew she appreciated how much the right lighting can give a room the wow factor. After seeing their products at a design show in Paris, I recommended a huge chain light from Italian company Terzani to take centre stage over the huge dining table. It was so heavy we had to reinforce the ceiling, but it was totally worth the effort as it looked AMAZING!
