MODERN ELEGANCE, PERIOD AND URBAN CHIC

Architecture is about proportions. If you live or work in one of the many Soho streets with period property such as Berwick Street, Dean Street, Brewer Street, Rupert Street, Wardour Street, Greek Street or Meard Street (pictured above) embrace the colours of the Georgian era; yellow pink green and blue with lighter skirtings.

Covent Garden apartments and loft spaces with swathes of natural light and brightness, find the white that is reflective of exterior landscape and weather, found in the fabric of your building, the stonework, rooftops and pavements.

By late 19th century architects were able to select from a colourful palette of stone, greys and reds from Scotland and Cornwall, white yellow and green sandstones from The Pennines, yellow and cream limestones from Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire.

A loft space in Covent Garden or an apartment in Soho, your ceiling height, woodwork, moderate to generous scaling, all lend themselves and point to which sympathetic colours to be chosen by you with help from RiminiB.

Contemporary developments, mid to late 20th century property and ex local authority property around Soho in areas such as Wardour Street, Marshall Street, Soho Square, Broadwick Street (pictured below), Great Marlborough and not forgetting Convert Garden are often smaller in proportion and generally flats or apartment dwellings.

Modern Urban Chic is often perceived as less quirky and lacking personality but benefit from the use of modern materials and textiles, keeping the tradition of red brick and white windows and casings, and using metals and lighter woods. These developments tend to be in the more shaded streets with different propositions the higher one is in the building, new or old.

A single colour used throughout these smaller spaces creates a flow and loses the ‘boxed in’ feeling. In the lower floor embrace the lack of natural light and use a darker tone of your choice of white, not the immediate reaction everywhere must be painted in bright white, this just generates the sense of a flat boring space.

Whatever age, scale, shape, use or location of your property colour adds an extra dimension and physicality. Decoration should be organised round natural light using daylight to dictate the layout of your property. Colour is reflective and memorable so have your stories ready, that summer evening on the balcony gazing over the urban rooftops of London.

Lighting can be used to mellow the contours of rooms and colour to create different moods for different rooms.

We advise from a colour palette selected by you influenced by your furnishings flooring and fabrics, wallpapers.

SPRING WHITES AND SEASONAL BRIGHTS

Warm whites with seasonal yellows and dusky pinks reflected in the bright light of early spring, the trees still bare waking up with earlier dawns and enjoying later sunsets

Spring is the perfect time of year to choose your whites before our trees show the first sign on their leaves and mask the harshness of daylight.

Use different depths of the same colour to create a new dimension in your rooms or the one colour everywhere to elude to a more generous space.

Inspiration while running in the park, beautiful yellow wagtails suddenly flew out of a tree, wow! pale greys complimented with yellow, now that’s a colour palette, yellow is hope of things to come, brightness, the beautiful fluffy yellow of mimosa trees, with their delicate perfume evocative of warmth and the promise of summer, lemons the glorious sent when gently grated, colour is full of memories.

Share your story with us and we will help you create your perfect space, without the stress.
