I spent some time and enjoyed a coffee with the team at Bicknell Interiors recently. it was good to catch up to see some of the current work that is in the design stages at the studio. The team is really busy working on some very interesting architectural and interior design projects - it amazes me how they have the ability to work in both contemporary and classical styles, and always with great results. Nicola Humphrey, who is the chief architect, explained: “The architectural design phase is critical to arrive at the best design solution. We always over deliver as we want to explore the various options to ensure a client is comfortable with the end result and our 3D drawings are always a very good indication of how the project will eventually look.” Certainly, the array of different ideas look just stunning. Andrea Palmer, who heads up interior design, is working on a number of style boards for one particular client: bedrooms, bathrooms, dressing rooms, kitchen and living space. She says: “I am really excited about these schemes. The client wants a luxurious feel to the bedrooms and bathrooms and a contemporary minimal feel for the kitchen. I work very closely with our clients and architects to bring co-ordination and a cohesive scheme to the house.” As always, I love the work the team create, which is refreshing and incredibly stylish. Bicknell Interiors has been helping homeowners create amazing spaces for over 10 years, and now has a number of strings to its bow, giving clients like you complete flexibility whether you are looking at the potential of a property you’re buying, or you want to revamp the home you have.
Based in an airy, welcoming design studio, the minute you walk into Bicknell Interiors, you know you’re dealing with experts. The front part of the studio contains room layouts, complete with furniture, lighting and soft furnishings. Mood boards cover the walls, and you get a glimpse of stacks of wallpaper and fabric sample books. Meanwhile, the buzz at the rear of the studio tells you that this is a busy consultancy that has plenty of ambition.
