Herne Hill, hall

Herne Hill, hall Halls are tricky to get right. You want them to be welcoming and to set the tone for the rest of the house but because they touch each of the other rooms in the house they can end up very neutral. My clients faced with painting their hall cream again took the plunge and asked me to help. We chose a lovely soft Liberty wallpaper in one of their classic peacock prints and a lilac to tone in with it. Mission accomplished. Client review: “When we decided to redecorate, we asked Zoe to help ensure that we didn’t end up with another cream hallway. Zoe helped us choose a wallpaper and suggested a soft lilac to work in with the paper we picked. We wouldn’t have thought of this combination ourselves. But it works really well to add interest to our hall and co-ordinates well with our existing decor. Rather gratifyingly, lots of visitors have in fact commented on how nice it looks."
