CHISLEHURST
BRIEF: The client had a strong view of what she wanted to create based on Wabi-Sabi - imperfect perfection.
Wabi-sabi focuses on raw textures. Materials like wood, stone, leather, and metal are embraced for the way that they age and stain, rust and wear. How, even after the toll of time, they become more beautiful.
PROCESS: We have used limewash paints as they are a gorgeous way to add depth and texture to the walls. Beauwerk does them beautifully. Their paints forge a connection to nature on a fundamental level. They are completely natural - made from clay, minerals, and beautiful natural pigments.
Lighting is discreet but functional, with accessories kept to a minimum and simple but beautifully conceived furniture in natural materials, forms and finishes. The use of natural and live wood, raffia, metal, glass and wool features in the overall scheme.
RESULT: Putting the right team together to produce the work is essential for a successful interior design project. The Wabi-Sabi principles used, work in tandem to create a peaceful, authentic, and healthy home, which is exactly what the client wanted.
