How to make the most of a property without spending too much? This home makeover is a great example of a transformation with no structural work involved. The brief was to create a unique, family-friendly scheme with a fun twist.The sitting room needed to be practical, cosy, and comfortable — a space that works for both children and adults. I also re-styled the dated kitchen by updating the floor tiles, worktop, and splash-back, repainting the units in Little Greene Royal Navy, and adding long decorative shelving to create extra storage and display space. Three bedrooms were revamped, introducing playful and bold details such as butterfly wallpaper, bright blue walls in one room, and flamingo cushions, giving each space its own personality while keeping the overall scheme harmonious and cosy.
