Four Bedrooms, West Wight Thatched Cottage

This characterful old thatched cottage needed a completely new decoration scheme as it had become slightly tatty. The clients wanted the whole house interior brightened up but still remaining sensitive to the buildings' period features. Colourful pastel shades of mint, jade and rose were chosen to give each of the bedrooms their own character.
