> Colliss & Quinton; design for grown up dining room

Having already designed and implemented most of the design for the ground floor of a beautiful Norfolk farmhouse with our sister company, Colliss & Quinton (interior design for grown ups), here is the scheme for the new dining room.



We wanted to create an enveloping, luxurious room for entertaining with a dramatic colour palette and statement wallcovering. The walls are to be painted a rich, glossy, bitter chocolate (Farrow & Ball's Mahogany) with Blackened on all ceilings and woodwork. Our "Serenity" wallcovering is going on the focal wall - you won't see this until you are fully in the room, but on viewing, it will set a grand, exotic tone. Antique chairs upholstered with our new "Our Lady" fabric sit around a huge Saarinen Tulip dining table with Jaime Hayon Josephine T golden pendants suspended low. Gilt pictures and Rococo mirrors hang on the wall, mahogany cabinets flank the chimney breast glittering with crystal decanters and a Sebastian Wrong white Spun floor lamp stands sentinel in a corner. Ornate gilt candelabra and flickering candles will dazzle and bounce soft, gentle light off the chocolate walls.

Works have already started and will be completed in time for Christmas.
