Tranquil Simplicity
Keen to make the most of a converted garage space and new extension this Young Family embraced the design journey from the offset. They wanted to incorporate a larger Kitchen Family Room, but not lose the separate dining room as they loved to entertain.
The former car space was to become an elegant Sitting Room so A T E L I E R | id suggested adding double doors, a focal fireplace, window seat and radiator joinery to take the garage from a rectangular box to a real 'room' - with its own character, symmetry and proportion. The dining room doors were also made double and moved to allow a grander more accessible entrance off the hallway.
The decorating scheme throughout was a calming palette of neutrals with textural interest and honest natural materials
such as linen and oak. We also played with scale and made features of lighting, as well as the fireplace.
The final touch was to install lots of wall panelling throughout to continue the honest natural theme with subtle detail and gentle colour.

" Katie immediately understood our taste and brought her individuality to the suggested designs and importantly gave us lots of new ideas for our space that we hadn’t even considered or thought of ourselves.
Atelier managed the entire process for us from design to finished rooms and took away all the stress associated with doing a project yourself, this meant we had a wonderful customer journey and enjoyable experience. I’ve recommended Katie and team to a number of people and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. We are so incredibly pleased with our finished rooms."
