At the heart of the brief was the desire to unify the space and enhance functionality without sacrificing style. The clients had recently installed a sleek media wall featuring an electric fireplace and integrated TV, which became a focal point. However, the surrounding environment, stark white walls, a dated kitchen, and a bulky utility cupboard, disrupted flow and cohesion. Inside Studio addressed this by removing the dividing wall and introducing a stunning wine display wall, beautifully framed by oversized glazing and doors that visually opened the space while celebrating the clients’ love of fine wines.
Lighting played a crucial role in the transformation. Inside Studio replaced all existing fittings with a dynamic scheme, including Orluna 2700K downlights, discreet uplighters, and a Lutron lighting control system for effortless ambiance. Layered lighting, featuring reading lights, wall sconces, and integrated LED strips, brought warmth and depth to every corner, elevating both aesthetic and function.
Spatial reconfiguration allowed for a larger kitchen island and the integration of bespoke elements such as a bar, breakfast pantry, and stainless steel fridge/freezer bank. These carefully considered additions, paired with luxurious finishes like Travertine polished plaster and bespoke shelving, resulted in a unified space that’s equally suited to relaxed family evenings and elegant entertaining.
Through thoughtful planning, curated materials, and innovative lighting, Inside Studio has delivered a space that feels effortlessly elegant, deeply personal, and truly transformative.
