1. “Go for the unexpected, like a green fireplace”
‘Through a process of trial and error we’ve ended up with a group of core neutral backdrop colours throughout the house, and then another small palette of pink, yellow and green for accents. In the living room, we’ve added flashes of colour with the painted fireplace and bright accessories. The contemporary elements, such as the artwork and the lightning mirror, make me smile alongside the vintage fringed floor lamp. This room is perfect for lazy Sunday afternoons watching a film, with the woodburning stove lit and a Bloody Mary on the go.’

2. “Co-ordinate books to add visual interest”
‘The shelves were here when we moved in and I painted them a deep grey as a backdrop to my colourful books and cushions. Go with your instinct and don’t be constrained by traditional schemes.’
