Your Home – August 2019

REAL HOME

90 August 2019

‘I prefer quite a minimal colour palette, with the

exception of my daughters’ rooms, and tend to stick

to white, grey and pale blues throughout the house.’

A characterful cobbled patio, with an

adjoining decked area gives the family another

area for alfresco dining. For a similar furniture

set, try the teak circular folding table with four

chairs from Sustainable Furniture. The white

ceramic heart lantern is from Sainsbury’s and

the throw and mugs are from M&S

Lorraine and Paul love having their own top floor retreat

to escape to. They’ve made it an ultra-calm space with

white walls and an en suite shower room. The bed and

chest of drawers are from Barker & Stonehouse and the

Symi slim table lamp is from Baytree Interiors

‘The Farrow & Ball

Cornforth White wall

colour was inspired by

Instagrammer

Semi in Suburbia,’ says

Lorraine. Printsfr om

At the moment the garden room is a

great space for the children to spend time

with friends but eventually Lorraine hopes

to reclaim this space as a studio for her

interior design business, Willow & Maine.

The bamboo sun loungers by Vida XL make

the most of the decked area outside the

converted garage. The Banksy balloon girl

wall decal is from Vinyl Revolution
