Some of the furniture, such as the leather sofas and armchairs in the living room, dining table and sideboard, already belonged to the client. ‘The clients existing furniture was added to by dining chairs from The Sofa & Chair Company and soft furnishings, with beautiful textured and patterned fabrics from Rubelli, Donghia, Dedar and Osborne and Little,’ says Kacher.
One of the most immediately impressive areas of the house is the new double height, glass-fronted entrance hall. ‘This needed to have an immediate impact as one entered the house so I used a Porta Romana gold-based console table with a black lacquered top to complement the new French-polished ebonised balustrade together with a oversized mirror by Christopher Guy and wall lights, also by Christopher Guy. The clients then found the amazing bronze-patinised dog sculpture, which really sets off the look in the hallway.’
According to Kacher, it was the sense of collaboration that makes this interior a success: ‘there was a great level of collaboration with the clients and whole team involved in the project,’ says Kacher. ‘And having clients that are as receptive and open as these ones were always helps.’
