Whilst we're recovering from our Christmas party last night, I wanted to share this beauty of a design with you. In particular the coving detail to me is just perfection. This gallery space was designed by the talented @thomaspheasant, it's just one of the many designs that has blown me away in his stunning book 'Simply Serene' in which he details and illustrates his signature design philosophy that "Simplicity is not simple, it is the process of fulfilling an idea using only that which is essential"⁠
⁠
One of the things I enjoy most about being part of this industry is that there's an opportunity to learn from someone else's experience with every new project, and every new challenge. I'm so pleased to be adding this book to our design library and using it as a tool in our ongoing projects. #booksimreading⁠

We have recently been appointed to work on the architectural interiors of a new-build 9000 sq ft home in Wimbledon Village, which is being designed by the incredibly talented team @andrewharperarchitects (it's not the one pictured here but will be equally beautiful!). Ever since moving to Wimbledon I have admired Andrew's amazing talent at designing classical new-build homes with the most perfectly accurate period details, so perfect in fact that you'd be hard-pressed to recognize they're a new build. Swipe left and you'll see just what I mean! Such an exciting team to be part of and we can't wait to share the design development with you in 2020! #projectswan ⁠

We're very excited that our Belgravia project, which you may have been following in our stories, has been selected for a key editorial feature in January so unfortunately the images have been embargoed from being published until that time. So for now, I can just show you this pretty snap from @marywadsworth1 to wet your appetite (see what I did there? 🤭) showing a detail in one of the 3 bathrooms combining lovely rich materials with a waterproof plaster on the walls, satin gold taps and a deep military green basin. January is a long wait but I promise it'll be worth it! #gunterandcopublished

We're hosting our first raclette of the season tonight, it'll be a bit of a shock to the system after our lovely time in Mauritius, but may as well dive right into the season's spirit. Our best friends are even sacrificing their datenight for this cheesefest - so we're going to pull out all the stops to set a festive tone. I couldn't conjure up a more appropriate image if I tried: Our design for The Nest @tomfaulknerfurniture really sets the tone for the season where spending time together is really what it's all about. Have you been to visit yet? ⁠

It's been a lovely time away, recharging with my two main guys, and such a nice homecoming to London in full festive cheer! Can't believe we'll be in full Christmas mode this time next week 🎄🎅🎁 My favourite scene sofar has to be the stunning window display at @fortnums revealing a window per day captured by the very talented 📷 @bei.bei.wei

We had a great time last week at the @chelseadesignquarter x @glassdoorlondon charity event. The event itself has helped raise over £6500 which will translate to 280 people getting access to shelter, food and essential services they need to help them get back on their feet. A well worthy cause we think you'll all agree!
A big thank you goes to all those who gifted prizes and to @tomfaulknerfurniture for helping us to create the gorgeous vision that is THE NEST! If you haven't yet managed to pop down and see it at the lovely showroom of @tomfaulknerfurniture we'd recommend you do so!

@tomfaulknerfurniture asked us to design a space in their showroom as part of Chelsea Design Quarter’s charity event in aid of Glass Door. Inspired by the work this charity does for men and women affected by homelessness, Irene’s design reflects on the concept of what it means to feel at home, to feel safe and at ease.

Irene’s fresh approach to design – that “𝘢 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘳 𝘪𝘴 𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥, 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘦𝘺𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦” – combined with her exquisite use of natural textures and elements of intrigue, goes hand in hand with Tom’s expertise in the field of distinctive silhouettes, simplicity and beautiful materials.

The Nest is an installation that is intended to feel cosy and lived-in; it is an exploration of different textures and patterns within a dining-living area, using materials and other elements that have been kindly donated by members of Chelsea Design Quarter and our friends within the interiors industry.
It’s an illustration that beautifully made furnishings aren’t just for show homes and magazine shoots, but for real life, with soft corners for toddler’s heads, rugs for reading books on the floor and not fussing over wine spilled on a beautiful table. .
Good design is the science of comfort

What are you upto this weekend? I love the view from this top floor pyjama's room in our Wimbledon Village project. It looks positively Californian and is doing wonders to kick me into gear to make the most of these precious days with the family. Even on rainy days like these, I love spending time outside but just struggle to convince my boys to come with me! I think they'd probably prefer to stay put in a pyjama's room, and to be honest, anyone who has a room like this between their bedrooms, will probably agree with them and get the lego and puzzles out whilst I wait by the door with my umbrella 🙈☔#gunterandfam⁠

At Gunter & Co we love a good staircase, and are so excited to share this cast concrete and bronze design with you #gunterandcodesigns. It forms the heart of our new-build Wimbledon Village home, and for us it's the highlight of the design. Between ourselves, the architect and metalworkers, there were many hours of brainstorming to get the detailing just right. Before we got involved in the project the balustrade was designed to be a set of plain stainless steel posts, so I'm so pleased we were able to make such an impact, working with a team open to ideas and collaborations. As designers, we're only ever as good as the team around us, and I think this project is a prime example. Pssst, don't miss the recessed LED lights washing a soft glow on the stairs at night, swipe left! 💡 Also, how epic are these stunning antique panels our client sourced? I love the contrast with the modern nature and the deep green paint colour behind, @littlegreenepaintcompany 's #ObsidianGreen ⁠

Another rainy day, another moody bathroom. This guest bathroom in our Marylebone project is small but perfectly formed with this adorable bespoke T&G vanity unit with leather pull handles, lilac (yep, that's right) taps by @watermonopoly and corian basin and top by @notonlywhite. When space it at a premium practical storage makes all the difference, and I just love this little ledge providing an additional surface below the mirror. #gunterandcodesigns⁠

Remember the recommendations we asked for a while ago for a November escape? It's decided, we're headed to Mauritius 🌴 It will be a short break after a work-filled summer, and we can't wait! When you run your own design studio it's never easy leaving work as we love our projects (and clients of course 😅) but after a long year without a break I think it's only fair to say we hope to come back feeling re-charged and excited to get stuck in. In the meantime, should you have any must-see recommendations in Mauritius please do share below, we'll be staying on the south coast #willtravelfordesign ⁠

Over the last few weeks we've been working to help celebrate the launch of the Designers Page on the CDQ website by creating a showcase in @tomfaulknerfurniture 's showroom.

We're always looking for interesting materials and couldn't be more pleased with how this classy bar turned out in our Knightsbridge project using a mid-tone oak veneer, hand-made bronze handles and a marble worktop and splashback (with the neatest pull-out worktop hidden in the marble top) in Arabescato Orobico.

What is your favourite go-to marble? We will be adding this one to our list of tried & trusted success stories #guntersonthehunt⁠

At Gunter&Co we love using colour, but sometimes it's not always a great idea to splash it around when you're trying to focus on other details. In this project in Hampstead, we opted to keep the overall palette fresh and neutral (please read Slate I @paintandpaperlibrary, a trusted golden oldie), with a calming white-washed oak by @element7flooring and some pretty spectacular track lighting. This gave us the opportunity to do something special with the doors as white full height flat doors just don't cut it in such a striking context. This dark green and black combination was the perfect missing ingedient to highlight the beautifully discrete flush skirtings and architraves, but also provide a practical surface for doors to look their very best for a long time to come. Are there any particular colour combinations you're struggling with at the moment? Please ask away! #guntersdesignsurgery⁠

Moody powder room in our recently completed Wimbledon Village project. Sometimes simple things are the most beautiful, and this stunning bespoke mirror against the contrasting black-grey walls is just so. It's so satisfying when designs come together but surprise you because of how they completely transform how a room makes you feel, and paint, the most modest and simple of finishes, can have such a tremendous impact #gunterandcodesigns 🖤🖤🖤⁠

One of the things I love most about our work is that every project is completely unique, with it's own challenges, blessings and surprises. Our first Wimbledon Village completed in October and it was the first time we were involved in designing the interiors for a new-build property with the very talented team of Hogarth Architects. We joined the design team on time to make some key changes to the layouts and make the finishes softer and overall fixtures and joinery designs practical with day to day living. The living room is my favourite space in the house; with glazing over 4m high we worried it would feel cold, but the amazing garden design by Sara Jane from London Garden Design makes it the perfect hideaway. The board-concrete ceiling and polished plaster walls add a lot of texture and the clients' love of deep colours works remarkably well in tying the space and artwork together. .

At Gunter & Co HQ we couldnt be happier with our clients' being more and more into our love of curves since they've been making a comeback recently (our builders not so keen when they eagerly see me arriving with a drawing with more curves than straight lines, for obvious reasons 🙈). This particular beauty is a kitchen designed Marco Constanzi for none other than Fendi (aka Fendi Cucine) in collaboration with SCICCucine in Italy. Those Italians, what can I say...Hats off - it's a real gem!⁠

This beauty is the most comfortable seating area in our recently completed Knightsbridge project - in the very generously proportioned master suite. The spirit of panelling is recreated with an ombre trim by one of our favourites @samuelandsons. In this modern architectural setting, adding just a hint towards a traditionally panelled room was just the right touch to evoque a sense of warmth and cosiness (somehow this word has gone out of fashion, but I think it's the key ingredient to feeling at home, and think it needs a serious revival). Building on this, I'm glad that the 'grey' era seems to be well and truely behind us, with this warm textured @phillipjeffries Japanese paper weave looking perfectly modern and sleek, yet restful and inviting. Obviously I won't actually care if navy blue ever goes out of fashion, to me it's a warm colour that makes my heart sing especially combined with this most perfect of compliments in this beautiful terracotta artwork by @cadogan_contemporary. ⁠
