Amy Stoddart Studio: Creating a Fresh, Modern Aesthetic 9th December 2024 | IN RESIDENTIAL DESIGN | BY SBID

This stunning mews house, tucked away in the charming neighbourhood of Little Venice in West London, offered the perfect canvas for a full interior transformation from Amy Stoddart Studio.

Our clients entrusted us with reimagining every aspect of the space. We reconfigured the layout by relocating walls, repositioning bathrooms, adding custom walk-in wardrobes, and even redesigning the staircase to introduce a fresh, modern aesthetic.

Redesigning the staircase presented its own unique challenges. The tight turns connecting the first and second floors required us to enlist the expertise of a specialised handrail company, featuring master woodworkers skilled in creating and manipulating intricate curves. Their craftsmanship ensured that the transitions were seamless and elegant, transforming the staircase into a striking focal point that enhances both the functionality and aesthetic of the home.

Due to the property’s protected status, we faced restrictions on certain original features, such as the windows. This made it essential to use light-reflective materials that would amplify the natural light, enhancing the home’s airy, open feel while preserving its original charm.

One of our favourite elements is the custom-designed headboard in the main bedroom, which spans the entire width of the room. This longer, lower headboard emphasises horizontal lines, subtly drawing the eye across the space rather than up, creating a sense of openness that makes the ceiling feel higher and the room feel airier. We paired this centrepiece with striking Marc Wood pendants on either side of the bed, featuring his signature fluted glass—a motif we carried throughout the property to create a cohesive, sophisticated look.

The final look is effortlessly sophisticated, with a relaxed ambiance that highlights soft, neutral tones—striking a perfect balance between contemporary style and timeless elegance.
