Great to see the interiors at Rose Gardens in St Dogmaels coming together.  One of the joys of working on domestic projects is that it really is a truly collaborative process.  After months of me thrashing out important but practical issues such as drainage, services and waterproofing it is great to see the original vision we developed at the outset coming back to life as the house fills up with colour, possessions and personality.  Jane is an experienced builder having more or less hand built an entire eco lodge from scratch in Morocco and she is fashioning a wonderfully eclectic and rich set of rooms from a beautiful mix of antique furniture, found objects and re-purposed items.  The kitchen and much of the built in furniture has been assembled from a large second hand kitchen bought online and creatively divided up between rooms.  Elsewhere Moroccan rugs and traditional Welsh fabrics sit together on modern sofas and antique dressers.  Made from straw bale panels this is a highly sustainable, low energy house but I love that it does not feel like a new build when you step inside.  While each space has been meticulously set out to maximise light, circulation and views the interiors feel wonderfully natural and lived in even though painting and decorating is still being finished off.  Looking forward to seeing it completed soon.  The back door includes a passive certified cat flap so even the cat can be carbon neutral!
