Fiona Duke, an interior designer, relocated from London to Essex, drawn by the community vibe. After years of desire, she acquired a detached Edwardian home by befriending the owner. Duke faced initial renovation challenges, having to live with poor plumbing for six years. Once renovations began, the family moved out, and Duke was actively involved in the gutting and refitting process. The upgrade transitioned the house from an outdated condition to a lively and colorful space, showcasing her design flair, influenced by carefully selected furnishings and an adaptable design approach.
Duke and her husband first purchased a Victorian terrace in Essex but aimed to obtain a detached Edwardian house nearby, eventually succeeding after years of persistence.
Fiona Duke carefully modernized her new home after years of living with plumbing issues, resulting in a transformation from drab to a vibrant, inspiring space.
Duke's keen sense of design was showcased through her careful selection of home furnishings, with a rug from Etsy influencing the color palette of her living area.
Living in a difficult environment taught Duke to embrace her home's imperfections, which ultimately led to a transformative renovation that genuinely reflected her design vision.
