THE<br />
GRANGE<br />
ABOUT THE PROJECT<br />
We were recommended to a couple from overseas who had purchased The Grange. This beautiful, secluded property<br />
had been recently renovated and extended, but the work wasn’t up to the standard required by the new owners, and the<br />
interior design lacked flair and that certain special ‘something’.<br />
THE CHALLENGE<br />
With the client being based abroad, this project required<br />
the full time involvement of two key members of our team.<br />
The brief was to update and modernise the shabby interior<br />
of the property using the knowledge gained from previous<br />
Mcintosh DBR projects such as Babington House and<br />
other high-end refurbishments.<br />
The client had some great ideas that just needed realising,<br />
so together we formulated a room-by-room plan of how<br />
we would approach the works to be undertaken on this<br />
charming house. We also had to ensure confidentiality<br />
at all times, as requested by the client – a frequent<br />
contractual condition that we’re very used to and always<br />
happy to meet.<br />
THE SOLUTION<br />
We spent a great deal of time perfecting the client’s vision<br />
on paper before work started. We then began by preordering<br />
the tailor-made and individual items required,<br />
using our local contacts and regular subcontractors<br />
to apply all the personalised touches requested. Once<br />
underway, we kept the client informed and up to date<br />
via email and Skype, and a regular flow of information<br />
enabled both us and them to make minor adjustments to<br />
the works without any time delays or hiccups.<br />
The end result is a stylish and utterly bespoke interior,<br />
featuring beautiful bathrooms and a wonderfully homely<br />
kitchen space, all designed and restored to the full<br />
satisfaction of the client.<br />
