Introduction to Interior Design

Interior design is the art and science of creating a beautiful and functional living space. It involves combining elements such as colour, texture, furniture, and lighting to create a space that reflects your unique style and personality. Interior design is an important part of creating a home that is comfortable, stylish, and inviting.

Types of Interior Design

There are many different types of interior design, including traditional, contemporary, modern, and eclectic. Each type of design has its own unique style, aesthetic and purpose. 
Traditional interior design is focused on creating a warm and inviting space with classic elements, perfect for living in. While modern interior design has a more minimalist and contemporary feel, ideal if you plan to rent your property.  Eclectic interior design combines elements of different styles to create a unique and personal look for whatever you plan to do with your home.

Mavericks Wave Situated in Trevaunance Cove a com Mavericks Wave

Situated in Trevaunance Cove a complete refurbishment to update this tired apartment was undertaken. Designed and managed by Studio Far West and built by @warvena_construction.

We began by transforming the layout maximising the offering by creating 4 bedrooms with one master ensuite, kitchen, pantry, family bathroom and large sea view lounge.

Planning permission was obtained to create a Seaview window in the lounge and for installation of an air source heat pump updating with a modern heating system. Kitted out with underfloor heating and finished to a high specification.

Kids room - bespoke cabin beds built in to maximise space in this small room, this would comfortably sleep kids and adults alike!
