Kopal successfully paired two tile patterns by sticking with florals and using colours from the same palette. ‘Don’t get nervous and move away from your vision halfway through – a scheme like this doesn’t make sense until everything is in place,’ she advises
STEP INSIDE...
WHO LIVES HERE? I’m Kopal Jaitly, 36, and I’m a fashion influencer (@petite_and_curvy), interior photographer and stylist (@pink londonhome). I live here with my husband, Manav Jaitly, 39, the director of revenue at a luxury hotel in London. We bought our four-bedroom, 1930s house in October 2019.
WHAT WAS UPDATED? We didn’t keep anything from the old kitchen except the hatch opening that connects with the dining room.
WHY THE CHANGE? There were only cupboards and a worktop down one side, the fridge-freezer was in the way of the door and the hob was too close to the sink.
HOW LONG DID IT TAKE? About 10 weeks to rip out the old kitchen and install the new one.
TOTAL COST £14,890
A spacious 1930s house was exactly what Kopal Jaitly and her husband, Manav, were looking for. They wanted to stay in their area, but needed somewhere with more room to accommodate visiting family from India.
