Strong Statement

Thanks to Nicola and Adam Harvey’s dynamic design ideas, their once dated Victorian home is now unrecognisable

- Jane Crittenden

Nicola and Adam Harvey are design aficionados, enthused by their respective jobs in interior design and property investment. When the couple, who have two daughters, Mia, nine, and Summer, six, found a run-down Victorian home, Nicola began sketching out ideas, pushing the boundaries of conventional renovation to find ways to create visual impact. Then a hidden gem revealed itself in the roof.

‘We had a huge attic, which would have been a waste not to use,’ says Nicola. ‘But instead of converting the loft, the height sparked the idea to have a mezzanine dressing room in our bedroom, and a playroom above Summer’s room.’
