Having built a long-standing relationship with the client whilst designing the interiors of her home throughout the years, Hill House Interiors was thrilled to be instructed to work on the latest space in this incredible Hertfordshire family residence.

The new phase is centred on a brand-new extension in which an area that had previously been an external courtyard, was enveloped into the build to join two parts of the home, creating a sensational space to accommodate an open plan kitchen, family and dining super-room.

The brief to the Hill House Interiors studio was to create a sleek, stylish, and multi-functional space that would seamlessly provide a central hub suited for both everyday family life and activities as well as an impressive space to entertain guests with a touch of theatrical flair.

The previous layout was small and restrictive, and with limited natural light, it was dark and underwhelming. Therefore, a key element within the vision of the project was to transform the new space into one that the client would be proud to enjoy as both a family and as a party host.

A top-of-the-line kitchen with plenty of high-quality appliances was imperative to enable the client to embrace his unwavering love and passion for cooking, and the newly created would now accommodate a truly magnificent and expansive kitchen with a cohesive family zone that they had longed for.

The new extension, with a striking wall of large floor-to-ceiling windows, now floods the space with light and reveals unobstructed views of the home’s remarkable views of their grounds. With such beautiful nature quite literally on the doorstep, the brief for the furniture and furnishings was very much inspired by bringing the outside in.
