Cheville Versailles and Broderie smoked and finished in a metallic oil. The metallic finish reflects the light, so you see different tones at different times of the day, or depending on how the light is hitting it. By finishing traditional parquet designs in vibrant metallic finishes, Cheville have created a floor which blends old with new. It fits wonderfully into this 19th Century Villa This multi-award winning property is the most publicized project Cheville has ever worked on. Each block is hand finished in a hard wax oil. Compatible with under floor heating. Blocks are engineered, tongue and grooved on all 4 sides, supplied pre-finished.

If there was an inspiration point for this powder room, it was the brass sink. The 'flowered wall' at the end of the room is actually a mirrored tile design surrounded by antiqued mirror tile rectangles. The fun dragon faucet compliments the owners art from Bali.

The family bathroom is quite traditional in style, with Lefroy Brooks fitments, polished marble counters, and oak parquet flooring. Although small in area, mirrored panelling behind the bath, a backlit medicine cabinet, and a decorative niche help increase the illusion of space. Photography: Bruce Hemming
