The brief
To transform this impressive Northamptonshire house into a truly beautiful and comfortable family home. Our client’s wish was to keep the existing period features and enhance them with new modern additions, beautifully curated schemes, artwork and furniture. We obtained a detailed brief from our client in terms of look and feel. Once the vision was established we orchestrated each room’s concept, sourced all of the furniture and fittings and carried out the installation.
Realisation
We have worked closely with our clients since 2020. We have made use of mood boards and floor plans to show our client our ideas and inspiration which helped to agree the design and build scheme. The renovations have been extensive and have required the entire interior to be stripped before work could begin.
We carefully selected artwork, accessories, furniture, furnishings and paint colours to ensure a seamless transition between rooms. We have created 4 stunning bathrooms, a living room, study, dining room, hallway, kitchen & pantry space through a phased programme to fit in around our client’s family life so as to cause as little disruption as possible.
What is your favourite aspect of your renovated home?
We are utterly delighted with all of our new spaces, and are so pleased that we had the services of Grace & Favour Interiors to help us with the design and build. We will certainly be using their service for other spaces in our home! We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
Why did you choose Grace & Favour interiors?
On presenting the initial concepts, it was clear that Grace & Favour had understood us and our brief perfectly. They came up with a stunning design and room layout that was faithful to the age and original features of the house, but that also pulled it smartly into the 21st century, we were then able to look at these plans together and adjust and tweak accordingly. They were able to find items to fit our budget from many sources. On top of this, their design packs provide absolute clarity meaning that all tradespeople coming into our home have been working towards the same end goal avoiding costly mistakes!
What did you enjoy about working with Grace & Favour interiors?
Grace and Favour have designed, delivered and project managed several spaces in our home. Through their hard work, commitment, creativity and vision together we have achieved something amazing and personal to us. I have to say without the usual stress that can be involved when undertaking renovation projects. Grace & Favour enthusiasm, professionalism, knowledge and design skills are exceptional and they have helped to create elements in our home which are functional and harmonious. Nothing has been too much trouble.
What was the management of your project like?
We were living in the house while the projects were being undertaken, they were extremely sensitive, respectful, courteous and mindful of this. The site was always left clean, tidy and secure at the end of each day. This was very reassuring and made the whole process very easy. Communication was excellent throughout keeping us updated of the day’s events and progress. They have gone above and beyond to ensure we have spaces that we love and have always been responsive to our needs.
