The refurbishment of a traditional Buckinghamshire cottage, retaining its English country character while introducing a more eclectic approach to the interiors.

The living room draws its colour palette from the surrounding woodland, connecting the interior to its setting. The original open fireplace was replaced with an inset wood-burning stove and traditional surround, improving heating efficiency while retaining the character of the room.

In the principal bedroom, the layout was reconfigured and the original brick fireplace exposed, revealing a previously concealed architectural feature. New timber flooring and layered lighting complete the transformation.
