Understandably, few developers will welcome suggestions of changes to the fabric of a building, so opportunities to create a completely bespoke space are limited. It’s for this reason that Nina decided to focus as much as possible on comfort – both visual and physical.
By using schemes that comprise her own designs in a range of soft colours, the rooms have a coherent feel.

The magnificent brass fireplace is based on a design by Sir John Soane that is available at Jamb. On either side of it, a pair of magnificent panels were commissioned from Natural Curiosities in California.
