Maybell Cottage, London (1103 sq ft)
This characterful three-bedroom cottage is a masterclass in stripped back elegance. Wooden floorboards, traditional interior doors and quirky accents all lend themselves to its understated charm: the rustic but always refined design gives plenty of nods to country life.
We transformed what was once a small, dark kitchen into a bright open space with a generous dining area thanks to a modern glass extension that pushes out into a walled garden landscaped with lavender and beautiful paving.
Upstairs, we created a master bathroom that is playful while still retaining graceful accents and a sense of space including twin basins and a full walk-in shower as well as roll top bath.
