Room Reinvention
SPECIALISTS IN BESPOKE INTERIORS, DESIGN INTERVENTION TURNS THE ORDINARY POWDER ROOM INTO A STYLISH SHOWCASE OF THE STUDIO’S DESIGN DEXTERITY
When it comes to crafting bespoke interior spaces, Design Intervention has garnered international repute for its daring and distinct style that balances an exquisite mix of the classic and the modern, as well as the understated and the flamboyant. Paying attention to the smallest details, the company which is helmed by business partners Andrea Savage and Nikki Hunt has crafted striking design statements in the most unexpected of places. Through a punctuation of vivid colours, and the use of dramatic wallpaper and pronounced textures, Design Intervention turns even the smallest of spaces into a showcase of its imaginative flair for vivaciously decorated interiors.
OUTLETS OF CREATIVITY
Despite its humble size, the powder room has become the interior design firm’s outlet for creative concepts across multiple projects. “As the powder room is in such a limited area, we can afford to indulge in more expensive finishes. And as it is a space that is only used fleetingly, we can experiment with styles that might feel overpowering in a more well-used room,” says Nikki Hunt, principal of Design Intervention. Call it the team’s “playground” if you will, for it is within these often small spaces that imagination reigns supreme. Undeterred by the size limitations, Design Intervention views every powder room as an opportunity to explore design ideas that could look too daring or overwhelming in any other space.
BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL
Each Design Intervention-created powder room is like no other, reflecting the individualistic approach the studio adopts with every project it undertakes. For the studio’s own powder room, the creative team explored diverse styles such as the bold and funky to whimsical and decadent, to bring out the personality of this pint-sized area. The use of wallpaper with bold patterns is a recurring element favoured by the design team, as it elevates each space to new heights. Mirror-clad vanity counters and ornate cabinet doors can also add a regal touch to even the smallest of powder rooms. What pulls it all together is the carefully coordinated range of colours—these unify the design of each space in its carefully curated spectrum.
