This luxury family home living room in Hertfordshire was designed as part of a full-home renovation and full-service residential interior design project by By Two Studio. The space combines bespoke cabinetry, integrated shelving and a modern recessed fireplace to create a calm, elegant focal point tailored to modern family living. A soft neutral palette, layered lighting and carefully curated styling introduce warmth and quiet sophistication, while the symmetrical joinery design enhances balance and visual continuity throughout the interior. Integrated LED lighting, bespoke storage solutions and open-plan flow ensure the room feels both highly functional and effortlessly refined. Designed to support everyday family life while maintaining a timeless aesthetic, the result is a modern luxury living room that balances practicality with understated elegance within a cohesive luxury family home.

The living room is light-filled and welcoming, with a soft, natural palette that ties seamlessly into the kitchen and garden beyond. The bespoke oriel window is a standout feature—projecting outward to create a cosy window seat and drawing in light and views from the courtyard garden. Carefully chosen furnishings and finishes give the space warmth and texture, making it feel both contemporary and comfortable.

Der 80qm große Wohnraum ist in zwei Bereiche untergliedert: Esszimmer und Wohnbereich. Der 3m lang Holztisch wurde aus 300 Jahre alten Eichendielen nach meinem Entwurf angefertigt. Die 10 Stühle, die den Esstisch flankieren, haben wir nach Wünschen der Bauherren konfektionieren lassen. Das Design der großen Wohnwand entstammt auch meiner Feder und wurde von einem Schreiner maß gefertigt. Die integrierten tiefen Schubladen fassen Unmengen Spielzeug des jüngsten Hausbewohners. Bewusst haben wir uns für ein modulares Sofa entschieden, dass je nach Bedarf immer verändert werden kann. Auf dem anthrazit Bezugsstoff des Sofas sieht man die Haare der Katzen und es Hundes kaum. Wir haben uns für einen Pflegeleichten Stoff entschieden. Als Raumteiler fungiert eine wunderschöne Konsole aus Holz.

Project Battersea was all about creating a muted colour scheme but embracing bold accents to create tranquil Scandi design. The clients wanted to incorporate storage but still allow the apartment to feel bright and airy, we created a stunning bespoke TV unit for the clients for all of their book and another bespoke wardrobe in the guest bedroom. We created a space that was inviting and calming to be in.

Une maison de ville comme on les aime : généreuse et conviviale. Elle étonne le visiteur par sa force de caractère, vite adoucie par quelques touches de pastel qui ponctuent l’espace. Le parquet a été entièrement restauré et certaines portions de type versaillais ont retrouvé leur éclat d’antan. Des rangements malins se logent ici et là tandis que le carrelage graphique des salles d’eau garantit un réveil revigorant.
