The Living Room: Luxury Living Room Design in Our Surrey Mansion

In this Surrey manor house, the living room is a hub for relaxation and socialising. We aimed to create a space that feels welcoming and warm, yet sophisticated. Pale wall tones form a soothing backdrop, set off by deep blue velvet sofas and orange accents for a vibrant yet harmonious palette. The room design was centred around the oversized fireplace and wood burner to create a focal point. Butterfly-patterned occasional chairs add a whimsical twist, while a custom Italian media unit provides a contemporary solution to display both the TV and the family’s collection of photographs.

This blend of contemporary convenience and traditional flair underlines our commitment to luxury interior design, Surrey residents can truly enjoy.

Grand Entrance: A Majestic Welcome to Countryside Living

As the gateway to this luxury manor house, the entrance hall offers an immediate sense of drama and warmth. It sets the tone for countryside living that is both grand and characterful.

The homeowner’s cherished grand piano sits on new antique-crafted wooden floors, infusing timeless character into the space. The prominent wooden staircase showcases a custom-designed runner in vivid colours, echoing the bright aesthetic of the entrance hall, and glass hanging pendants to reflect the light from the large window and the colours of the hall and landing. Emma is a colour specialist, so this was a large part of the brief.

A creative tree-shaped console injects personality and links with the extensive grounds, while a convex mirror amplifies natural light and offers a sweeping view of the foyer.

The Library: A Sanctuary of Knowledge in Our Luxury Manor House

Formerly a snug, this space has evolved into a stylish library that doubles as a cosy retreat – a thoughtful addition to any luxury manor house.

Bespoke cabinetry accommodates books, decorative items, and media equipment, keeping everything neatly organised. The original panelling has been painted to serve as a counterpoint to the pervasive oak throughout the house and underscores how a countryside house can elegantly balance heritage with fresh design. Soft yellows and pinks provide a gentle pop of colour that complements the overall scheme.

The Study: Designed for Productivity in a Countryside Manor

With busy family and professional lives, the homeowners needed a dedicated workspace. Tucked into this Surrey manor house, the study provides an environment where countryside living meets functional design.

A bespoke desk accommodates technology, and hidden cupboards ensure the area remains clutter-free. Ensconcing deep wall tones, combined with layered lighting, brass highlights and textural interest from the rug and old leather chairs, foster concentration and comfort. The study stands as a testament to the luxury interior design Surrey professionals appreciate, graceful yet entirely functional.
