Sofa, Jasper Morrison for Vitra. Vintage chair in Kvadrat fabric. Peter Hvidt Boomerang chairs in Cove fabric by Fermoie. 1970s French travertine coffee table, Vinterior. Lamp, Au Bespoke

DINING AREA

'I was desperate to avoid the apartment looking like a show home, so vintage pieces were important to counteract that,' says owner Helen. 'The way my designer put them together, by creating little vignettes all around the apartment, is genius.'

Punt dining table, SCP. Chairs, mid-century Niels Moller Model 62. On table: candlesticks, Home Barn (Little Marlow). Vase, Abigail Ahern. Bowl, John Lewis & Partners. European oak engineered wood flooring, Kahrs

KITCHEN

'To break up the wall of units, I chose one as a display area which draws the eye and makes for a softer look,' says Helen.

Walls in matt vinyl emulsion, Dulux. Vardo sheer curtains, Villa Nova. Lacquered units and Quarella Alabastro composite stone worktop, by Barget Kitchens. On worktop: vintage scales, Rag & Bone, (Bristol); try Pamono for similar

KITCHEN

'The apartment was a clinical canvas but now it's an individual space full of personality and warmth,' says Helen. 

Art, commissioned by Dawn Brimicombe. Lamp, LCT Home. Brass side table, Abigail Ahern
