From the beginning, my client was clear: she isn’t a beige person, says interior designer Kate Vale. She wanted something with depth, personality and a feeling of luxuriousness.
“Green was one of her favourite colours, so we used that as a foundation and built everything around it. When we discovered the paint colour Dulux Bronze Icon, it was an easy decision. It has a richness to it that changes throughout the day, giving the rooms a moody, cocooning feel without ever feeling heavy.”
Across the two bathrooms, marble became the hero. Rather than using it sparingly, they leaned right in—wrapping walls, vanities and details to create a sense of continuity and calm. The movement in the stone adds just enough variation to keep the spaces feeling elevated, while still allowing the overall palette to feel restrained and resolved.
“To balance the softness of the marble, we introduced more structured elements through the darker joinery, reeded glass and aged metal finishes,” Kate adds. “These layers give the spaces definition and stop them from feeling overly polished or predictable. It’s that contrast, between soft and structured, light and dark, that makes the rooms feel complete.”
The laundry carries the same language through, proving that functional spaces don’t need to be treated as an afterthought. By continuing the palette and detailing, it becomes part of the overall experience rather than a separate, secondary room.
“The end result is a series of spaces that feel cohesive, confident and highly personal.”
