The brief
A ceramicist and her partner bought a cold, grey townhouse and wanted it to feel like the inside of a kiln: warm, earthy and quiet.
What we changed
We delivered the whole house as an e-design package. Clay plaster on the bedroom walls, terracotta tiles in the hall and kitchen, and pale ash furniture they sourced themselves from our shopping list.
