Two show homes have been designed by Clayton & Company – this one is ‘The Banbury’ which has four bedrooms, open-plan kitchen/diner/family room, separate living room and a separate study. Ian Jupp, the designer’s head of sales and marketing, takes us through it.
Living room
We were delighted to be given the opportunity to design the interiors for these exceptional homes and our brief was to create a luxurious, contemporary but timeless design which reflected the brand and the essence of the development.
The living room is a grown-up space – chic and comfortable and totally on-trend with a background palette of soft green. The black, bronze and gold metals, pops of strong earthy reds and fun animal print come together to create a memorable space. The room was a joy to create.
Kitchen/diner/family room
This light-filled open-plan space features strong blues, natural textures and warm earthy tones. The navy-blue kitchen cabinets feature brass handles and taps. The outside is brought right in with foliage and statement house plants, and the acrylic-framed artwork and wish bone chairs give it a modern, contemporary feel. It is perfect for entertaining and relaxing as a family.
The study
From design board to reality the study is bold and creative and designed to stimulate the imagination, but also a place to escape with a good book. Generous storage is provided by the bespoke display cabinet, designed and built by Clayton & Company. The large Crittall mirror reflects the view from the window and the bold botanical wallpaper continues the theme of the blues and greens.
Master bedroom
Luxurious and calming – the blues and greens are carried through to this fabulous room with its feature headboard made in-house at Clayton & Company, oversized bedside cabinets and statement lamps.
Bedroom two
A sophisticated guest room designed to be elegant and classy with a boutique hotel feel. The accent colours are rich and warm and the bed sits against a backdrop of framed Chinoiserie panels.
Bedroom three
Fabulous Mughal-inspired wallpaper of dancing elephants, another of our fabulous headboards and a palette of salmon pinks, corals and creams creates a shell-like cosiness for the teenage girl in the family.
Bedroom four
For the youngest member of the family we designed a room to inspire an interest in the natural world carrying through the themes of texture and colour and making a comfortable, practical room with loads of storage space.
