5 ROOM WITH A VIEW

With a bit of planning, you can create something gorgeous as well as practical. Here, bespoke storage includes a windowseat, which has been painted in a bold colour that distinguishes the space from the rest of the room. Colour is a great way to create zones and this yellow is a real mood-booster.
