To Grey or Not To Grey?

So grey is in. Really? You had NO idea? Well I have to say I’m quite surprised. You can’t look in a restaurant, hair salon, barber shop, dentist, grocery store, butcher, lighting store, homewares store, deli, bakery or bar that’s been renovated in the last 7 years and not see it, in all its worn concrete look glory. Just as the early noughties we were utterly obsessed with every version of beige you could imagine (do you remember ‘Hogs Bristle’ being the colour of the decade), our obsession with everything grey has almost hit its peak. That’s not to say that it’s not still going...

(Not) Keeping up with the Jones’

Do a quick Google search on interior styles and trends and your brain will be instantly flooded quicker than you can say mid-century modern meets minimalism.

Timber, Sap & Leaf stains

Recently we decided to turn our dried up, tired excuse for a lawn into an inviting travertine paved courtyard area to enjoy summer barbeques, winter chestnut roasting, and a place where our toddler can ride his bike or throw pegs at a wall.
