Still on the agenda is a loft conversion and the rejuvenation of the garden.

Gemma’s Southampton new build is the epitome of bohemian chic. Her bubbly and charming personality is perfectly materialised in her home. From hanging macramé that she has knotted herself to posters of locations around the world that are important to her, there are elements of Gemma and her husband, Kyle in every area of the house. Every room has a its own scent and a lit candle that makes you not want to leave – until you get to the next room and you don’t want to leave there. Gemma, a veterinary nurse, describes her home as a mix of boho and scandi style.

Everything was different in the 50’s and 60’s, furniture was built to last, it was strong and stylish and for us, that has never gone out of style.
