Looking at the interior of this house is a pleasure. In each room there are so many subjects on which the gaze stops, that it will take more than one hour to study the whole object. So it was conceived by designer Roshin Lafferty. “I wanted to make an interior that would constantly surprise the owner,” says the designer. “So surprising and at the same time touches things dear to the heart that were once put in a large chest and now decided to take it apart.”

Roshin Lafferty has been in the profession for about ten years. The Kingston Lafferty Design bureau she created became successful quite quickly - from a nameless company, it became a laureate of design competitions and an authoritative author of private and public interiors. Roshin explains her success with subtle work with the client: she talks with her customers for a long time, meticulously figuring out their preferences. This time she communicated with the customer not one, but in the company of the co-author - designer Fiona Stone.

The hostess of a three-level mansion in the suburb of Dublin works in the legal sphere. She loves traveling, is fond of art and often spends time with friends. The task was to turn the typical for those places building into a house, reflecting the diverse interests of the hostess.

The building was generally well planned (the first and third floors did not undergo any constructive changes at all), and the red brick facades added charm to it typical of Victorian buildings. Still, there were some flaws. “The interiors were very boring,” recalls the designer. - I wanted to add bright colors here. And the layout of the second floor did not suit me. ”

The second level of the house was divided into tiny rooms. This state of affairs was contrary to the plans of the designer. They got rid of the partitions, and instead, the authors of the project organized a spacious master bedroom with a spacious wardrobe, a separate bathroom and even a small lounge area. In this zone (as in the whole house as a whole), the window openings were widened to let in more daylight: there is little hope in the sun in Ireland, but even its rare appearance will not go unnoticed. Yes, and the views from the windows were guaranteed to be good: the landscape design of the garden around the house was also thought out by the KLD Design bureau.

In his work, Rosin always seeks to emphasize the history of the object, if there is one. And here, though she changed the layout, she thought out the interiors so that they were combined with the appearance of the building. The brickwork in the master bedroom reminds that this is a house with a story: the designer decided not to glue a part of the wall with wallpaper, but leave a textured brick wall behind the headboard. But this was not the end.

Communication with the past (in the broad sense of the word) the designer realized in the decoration of the premises. In the setting of a lot of vintage items, while other objects, though modern, are inspired by the past. For example, the floors in all rooms are made to order and repeat the patterns of tiles and flooring patterns with which the palaces in Versailles are lined. They are arranged around the house so that when moving from room to room, one drawing will flow into another.

All rooms came out very bright, not leaving a single chance to get bored. “Your home is the most important place in your life,” Roshin Lafferty remarks. - Only he can instill confidence in you and inspire or adjust to a relaxed pastime. In any case, he should please you every day, and this house just pleases its owner. ”
