The Brief
Part of a complete period property renovation, this room is to be a an occasional room to be used as an art gallery for private collections but also to house other artists work for exhibitions in the future.
About The Project
‘This private art gallery was a real pleasure to design and see my team bring to life. My clients had already selected a dark indigo colour for the walls as a background to their existing painting collection, so this room was always going to be dramatic, with or without the paintings.
So, we created a bespoke fireplace for a Planika Fireline bioethanol fire, with a black granite surround. Chairs and sofas can now be brought into the room whenever required and placed around the fire.
I chose a light golden solid oak flooring laid in the herringbone style to provide a wonderful contrast to the rich indigo tones on the walls. Our carpenters made all the wall panelling also painted in the indigo colour to frame the paintings.
The oversized crystal chandeliers are the feature lighting of the room and whilst they are really beautiful, they are hung in such a way that they do not detract from the paintings. All the lighting has dimmers to create different moods for the different occasions.
I was really delighted with how the finished room looks. It was so close to the actual design – well done to my team! It is a wonderful space to be in and I’m sure my clients will enjoying sharing it with all the artists chosen to exhibit their work'.
