COLOUR DRENCHING • The Bold Trend that is Taking Over Fashion and Interiors • it’s very talked about right now but colour drenching is an age old decorating technique and like everything it’s important to know where, why and how to use it.

What is Colour Drenching?
Colour drenching is the art of using a single colour, or related palette of colours, across a space to create a bold, immersive experience. Unlike colour blocking, which uses contrasting shades, this trend leans into one dominant hue, saturating the entire room with its intensity. The result? A striking, cohesive aesthetic that demands attention.

Why is it Popular?
Colour drenching creates an impactful visual statement. By using different tones and textures within the same colour family, it adds depth and dimension, making any design feel modern and deliberate.

Pro Tip:
The key to mastering colour drenching is in texture play. Pair matte and glossy finishes to prevent the look from becoming flat.

Where to Use It in Interiors:
From walls to furniture, layering shades of a single colour in a room creates a harmonious, yet dramatic environment. Ideal for those who want to make a bold statement in their living spaces.

FEATURED • what a great way to start September’s rentrée seeing this press coverage from the last few weeks. Thank you for including me in this list alongside such respected and talented designers @houseandgardenuk @thelistbyhouseandgarden

Thank you @housebeautifuluk for this wonderful feature on our Fulham project. Projects like this take a huge amount of careful planning and a long time to complete so when you see a beautiful feature like this it really does give an enormous boost. Thank you too @idealhomeuk for asking me to give my tuppence worth on bathroom flooring for a couple of articles. I love designing bathrooms and feel they are often overlooked. They are where you start and end each day and so can have a huge impact on setting your mood, it’s important that they should be as carefully considered as any other room
