Why I like to incorporate antique pieces into a scheme
Incorporating antique pieces is a wonderful way to add personality and depth to a room. It gives a sense that the space has evolved over time and feels layered and considered.
I have been passionate about antiques for decades, sourcing for myself over many years and now also for clients who appreciate the craft, materials and styles that are hard to achieve with modern pieces and certainly at the same price point.
I source from local dealers, on-line shops, auctions and trade fairs. Here’s a selection of some of the pieces I’ve incorporated into my designs for clients.
Upcycling and repurposing are also really interesting ways to re-use pre-loved pieces of furniture in a sustainable and often more budget friendly way. Here are some of the ways I’ve introduced these purchases into my designs.
