Atelier Transformations

The project was coordinated by Lisa Trainer, our industry friend, all round ray of sunshine and the talented designer behind Red Door Interiors. Working closely with our team and coordinating a skilled array of local tradesmen - each masters of their own respective craft - within the space of a few short weeks and all at socially acceptable proximity, our haven was transformed with serene and sassy results.

Combining a sequence of clever storage solutions peppered with neutral furnishings to compliment Iona's signature quirky treasures and artefacts, the three main rooms, now known as The Salon, Sample Library and Design Studio, are intentionally diverse yet harmonious in their unity.

Our dark and decadent new entrance hall, a definite statement statement space, showcases of our new Perceptions collection through the pairing of a dreamy Forest Whispers wall mural and interchangeable Beauty and Reflections drapery. The brand's signature whimsicality and charm connect each room alongside the dramatic colour palette. Period features within the townhouse Atelier have been dealt a contemporary hand which encourage the eye to wander from cornice to cascade of fabric and from statement artwork to custom upholstery.

Embracing of our limitless love of design, intriguing projects and afternoon tea (always) the Atelier remains open for carefully curated appointments. Be it creative inspiration, project scheming and sampling or simply a change of scenery from your home office, we are here to assist and inspire. Looking ahead to 2021, we visualise popping corks and christening the our new Atelier in true IC style very soon, with treasured friends and clients galore!
