“IN KIDS’ ROOMS, YOUshould BE CREATING
A FERTILE SPACE IN WHICH THE CHILD CAN PLACE
their own THINGS”~ LAURENCE LLEWELYN-BOWEN, JUDGE
MAIN BEDROOM This room is a study in Hamptons style,
according to the judging panel. “It was a lot more formal than the
rules asked for, but I really liked it,” says judge Wendy Moore.
Laurence was also a fan. “I really liked that the furniture still had
that very traditional, almost Georgian, Hamptons detailing,” he says.KIDS’ ROOM The fun, circus-style kids’ room (above and left),
with blue-and-white wallpaper from Wallpaper Brokers, was a hit with
the judges. “I loved these wonderful kind of Beetlejuice stripes,” says
Laurence. Wendy also praised the space. “It was just a perfect room
for young kids,” she says. “They did such a great job of making it feel
packed with fun, but not cluttered. And there were so many storage
options you could see it would be a super easy room to clean up.”BATHROOM Dark navy cabinetry in the main bathroom (above and
opposite) is offset by the use of soft, brushed brass tapware and handles
from Highgrove Bathrooms. “Brushed brass has been a real innovation
this season,” says judge Laurence. “One of the problems with bathrooms
is there are so many cold surfaces, so having brushed brass is a wonderful
way of bringing a kind of soft, slightly voluptuous sparkle in there.”WALLPAPER
