Interior Design Companies London,
Philip & Nicky's House
Catherine Wilman Interiors designed and project managed the renovation of this luxurious townhouse, including a part-excavated basement for the kitchen renovation. The clients, Philip and Nicky, were very hands-on in the design process. They were seeking interior design companies in London who could help them reflect their lifestyle and showcase their unique collections of antiques and artwork. Luckily for us, they liked our classic, urban contemporary interiors and commissioned us for the project.
The excavated basement contrasts with the traditional architecture and features of the original home. The polished concrete floor sets the tone for a modern style, with a white Boffi kitchen. The kitchen remodel includes as much storage as possible and makes use of all areas, such as intelligent solutions and pull-out cupboards under the stairs. When considering the interior architecture in the basement, we wanted to soften the aesthetic with bespoke reclaimed wood features, surrounding the minimalist fireplace and banquette seating.








TV Snug Area, Utility Room & WC
Another key design feature in the kitchen basement is the TV snug, including a fireplace and more storage using the reclaimed wood. There is also a new cloakroom that is in keeping with the modern minimalist feel of the kitchen but includes playful features such as the moulded concrete sink.



Made To Measure Bedroom Wardrobe Design
The master bedroom and dressing room have bespoke wardrobes designed specifically for the clients’ unique pieces and needs. Matching with the more classical aspects of the home the bespoke cabinetry has shaker-style door mouldings that continue onto a bay window seat with hidden storage. The wardrobe interiors are planned specifically to the clients’ clothing and shoe measurements and details such as drawer dividers and tie racks to ensure the best use of space.
The bathrooms have a classical luxury interior design with a mix of stunning marble surfaces balanced with softer painted cabinetry finishes. With the use of Drummonds detailed sanitaryware, each bathroom
– while in the traditional style – has its own feel and aesthetic. The lighter tones of the Carrara marble in the master bathroom pairs beautifully with the pale French greys to create a tranquil atmosphere. The darker and more dramatic tones of the guest shower room are exaggerated with the moody blacks and panelled walls.





















Drawing Room & Hidden Snug
The snug was an interesting room to design as the clients’ brief was to have as much seating as possible in the enclosed space - which is hidden at the end of the hallway. Catherine Wilman Interiors designed an oversized, luxurious banquette seating as the focal point. The rich burgundy velvet draws the eye in and offsets the darker warm tones of the wall. This room packs a punch with another amazing design feature in the smaller room - the hidden bookcase door. To make the most of a smaller room rather than minimising the amount of bookcase storage Catherine Wilman Interiors decided to incorporate the door into a clever storage solution. The secret door is accessed from the hallway entrance, hidden in the panelling.
The drawing-room was very specific to the client. The room is set apart from the rest of the house, in which it feels like walking into another world. The antique library features are designed to showcase collectables and unique antique pieces, from “Dorothy” shoes poking out between books and antique furniture every aspect of this room reflects the personality of the client which Catherine Wilman Interiors feels is so important when designing a home.
