A new blank canvas is challenging, where do you start? Carolyn and Tom's new family holiday home in the Isle of Wight had plenty of family and friends lined up for holiday visits so they needed to create a relaxed coastal vibe quickly to take advantage of the summer. Carolyn immediately loved the simple colour palette of pastels and neutrals combined with wood textures, e.g. white shiplap and panelling. We started on the open plan living/dining area and kitchen, 4 bedrooms with terrace or balconies, 2 en-suites and bathrooms.
