scandi mid century living room, harrowbarrow, cornwall

harrowbarrow, 2020

 

We were briefed from a client who had recently moved into a 1960’s bungalow in Harrowbarrow, Cornwall, who wanted to address the poor layout of their new living room whilst updating it from its 90’s decor to have a more calming scandi feel.

what we did

Boaz Studio visited the clients home in order to understand the space and talk to the client about their requirements. We then went away to design layout options, create concept boards and following these created a furniture, fitting and equipment pack (FF&E) for the client to fully develop the space.

brief

To sensitively update the living room in a 1960’s bungalow using a Scandi aesthetic.

process

We worked with the client to create a layout that suited their lifestyle and was sensitive to the age of the property, maximising the rooms key features, such as the fireplace and views to the Tamar Valley.

The client had some key sentimental pieces of furniture for us to work with and wanted to ensure that the room could have privacy when required. The Scandi aesthetic was achieved through the use of natural and textured materials, white walls and soft linen curtains, bringing texture and warmth to the room.

results

The results were a calm adaptable space where our client could be as happy entertaining guests as curling up on the sofa to admire the view or read a good book.

"We used Boaz Studio as we needed some help reimagining our lounge after moving in just before having our first child. Our house wasn't working for us and our toddler. Stephen is so approachable and friendly and really listens. He's keen to understand what your needs and wants are as a client and then has an amazing way of turning that into something beautiful, practical, and personal. I am so impressed and would highly recommend Boaz Studio. On top of that, they're really professional, and communication is easy."

5/ 5 Stars

"Stephen and Alice worked with us to produce a design for the interior of our coffee house - their ability to bring together all of our different needs and ideas into one unified concept was fantastic - they have knack for drawing out the most efficient use of whatever space they're working with. First class."

5/ 5 Stars

"Boaz provided layouts and concept interior designs for our new home, and the results were fantastic: they managed to somehow provide us with something completely unexpected that was completely our style and what we wanted. We feel so much more confident managing the building work and decorating now, and can't wait to see it finished. Highly recommended."

5/ 5 Stars

"We worked with Boaz Studio to plan our two-storey extension and associated alterations to our house. We couldn't have done it without them, they were brilliant! Their thoughtful designs really made the most of the spaces, not only in terms of furnishings and decor but also really useful advice about positioning for doors and windows. Stephen and Alice are both fabulous at what they do and really lovely to work with. Highly recommended!"

"Boaz Studio came in to advise on the complete refurbishment of the communal space here at Sunley Orford House, a purpose-built block of quality retirement housing in the centre of Truro. Having listened thoroughly to the design brief he provided well thought out advice on materials, colours and decoration with options that not only bring a more contemporary feel but will revitalise the space for the future. His thought and attention to detail was appreciated by all involved."

"Stephen managed to build a true understanding of what we wanted and embed that in his conceptual designs. When we first saw those designs for a fresh and contemporary take on the heritage library, we knew that we would be creating something special."
