A Georgian house in Islington that combines old-fashioned English style with contemporary bite
['Emma Becque', 'Mark Roper', 'Rose Washbourn']
House & Garden
This spirit is particularly in evidence in the first floor sitting room, painted a duck egg blue from Papers & Paints with ruffled chartreuse blinds in glossy a moiré jacquard taffeta from Turnell and Gigon. In both the downstairs loo and main bathroom Christabel used classic Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler wallpaper designs - the smaller scale ‘Wendle Forest’ in aqua downstairs, and larger scale ‘Squiggle’ in lemon yellow upstairs - balancing the old fashioned feeling of the design with glossy tongue-and-groove panelling and flashes of red. The antique Chanel cabinet on the wall of the main bathroom is ‘Harry in a nutshell,’ Christabel laughs.
