Making an entrance. Hallway interior design.

The entrance hall gives visitors the first impression of an interior, so in redesigning a villa that was over a 100 years old, the hallway was very important in setting a tone that welcomed and enticed with a hint of luxury and sophistication. We used limestone on the floor, created white-painted panels and added that crucial touch of glam by combining stunning Nobilis wallpaper with a console table, wall lights and mirror by the fabulous Porta Romana.

Timeless and luxurious design

For this bespoke, newly built house in Cambridge, we wanted to create a space that was elegant, chic and most importantly practical. We wanted to reflect our clients' love for timeless and luxurious design. The colour palette for this house was kept simple at gold and navy blue to create a sophisticated look with pop up patterns, texture and a quirky accessories. The house is flooded with heaps of natural light thanks to the large windows and bi-fold doors. Sand coloured velvet curtains create a cosy yet classy atmosphere. The statement piece fireplace visually divides the kitchen and dining area from the living room, still keeping the feel of the open plan and spacious living. Overall, this house is welcoming, has a unique character and shows the owners sophisticated taste and personality.

Luxury Master Bedroom with En Suite Bathroom​

The soft natural tones used in the refurbishment of the master bedroom set the right balance between simplicity and luxury. Our brief was to re-style the bedroom with new furnishings and fabrics to make it feel younger and fresher. We were also asked to completely redesign the en suite bathroom. The bedroom colour scheme was carried through to the bathroom to create a unified space. We also
included interesting textures and fabrics to enhance the sense of luxury.

Light and Bright House in Cambridge

When this home was first purchased, the house was in desperate need of a contemporary face-lift. The layout was not maximising the space and the natural light was minimal. To solve this, we installed a massive skylight on the second floor landing flooding the stairwell and main hallway with light. We also drafted new space plans to maximise space and furnished the home with modern, neutral furniture. As our client was creative, we included pops of colour with accessories to reflect their taste and personality.
The paintings displayed throughout the home were also purchased through AZ Interiors, created by artist and design director Alicia

Formerly conventional house transformed intolavish, earthy, and functional home

This Cambridgeshire home underwent quite the transformation. We transformed what was previously a plain and bare house into a warm, elegant, and functional living space. By using natural materials such as marble and wood we created an earthy atmosphere for the client. Bright chalk-white walls surround each room, inviting in the warm English sunshine and creating a feeling of open-ness, at times almost dissolving the walls. Creating a functional interior, along with ample space, was a key focus. To accommodate this, we created a multi-tasking study/bedroom and incorporated an abundance of storage including a new
closet in the study/bedroom and numerous storage compartments in the living room and kitchen.

Warm and cosy one bedroom apartment

For this project, our client was interested in giving their apartment a face-lift but wanted to keep existing furniture pieces. As a whole, they wanted to add more light and a bigger “wow” factor, while at the same time creating a cosy atmosphere. Throughout the apartment, we chose neutral colours complimented with colourful accents to add warmth and character to the space. We also took a similar approach by selecting accessories, and created various focal points through artwork and lighting. All paintings displayed throughout the home were created by the owner of AZ Interiors, Alicia Zimnickas.

Cambridgeshire family living room to have fun and enjoy

When it comes to interior decoration most clients fear pattern and colour. That's a shame especially when the results can be so effective and stylish. Our Cambridgeshire client wanted to turn his family living room into something more individual and fun to enjoy. We created a nice snug area next wood burner – a cosy place to read a book or chill and keep yourself warm in cold winter evenings. Roman blinds with Oriental-style flowers pattern connects inside with in outside garden.
