Studio Concept Apartment
by Suzy Hoodless
Wide-plank oak floorboards
and geometric tiles create a division between the bedroom and a bathroom area
with a free-standing 'Vieques' bath from Agape. Brass strips edge the
fabric-fronted wardrobe wall. The bath-side scenario sketched out by these
three pieces certainly looks inviting, and acts as a simple reminder of how
interior design shapes people's lives, the way they spend their time and even
how they relate to one another.
A dramatic use of
geometric pattern teamed with modern furniture creates a playful yet
sophisticated effect in this Notting Hill town house.
The complements the
brass taps and reclaimed wash stand in the bathroom.
Graphic
curtains made with fabric from Madeline Weinrib add colour to the white walls
by the bed, while a Fifties Swedish chair upholstered in sheepskin sets the
tone.
'That chair was the first piece we sourced for the
project, and those initial purchases tend to set the tone,' says Suzy.
Talking through
her process of finding the contemporary/classic balance to give an interior
longevity, Suzy fastens on many details - the fabric-fronted wardrobes, the
Vittorio Introini shelving before deciding that her own favourite touch is a
relaxed scene in the bathroom area of the open-plan main bedroom. A Fifties
chair by Philip Arctander, which she found through a Swedish dealer, sits next
to Rose Unique 'Hoof side table’, arranged at a relaxed angle beside the
freestanding bath.
This open-plan
bedroom designed by Suzy Hoodless and architect Johnny Holland of Hackett
Holland, is the stuff of dreams.
