Lovely to see the windows in-situe today with the sunlight streaming through them.
The doors lead to two girls' bedrooms - the elder daughter was born in October and the younger daughter has a May birthday - hence the Autumn/Spring theme.
We discussed various options for the subject matter and in the end Lisa chose a couple of my existing designs which would be worked into full size panels.
I wanted the windows to look a bit like picture book illustrations (both girls had already chosen Quentin Blake fabric for their curtains) and the colours tie-in with those in the rooms.
You can just about see how amazing the views from the bedrooms are - across the rolling fields and out to sea. While I was there today, the colour of the sea flitted from turquoise to green to grey to indigo as the weather changed from sunshine to storms. Stunning.
Less is very much more here - the single panels look absolutely lovely in the plain white doors. Channeling admiration and envy...
