The Workroom Cottage

This project is close to our hearts as we transformed a 100-year-old cottage into the Workroom Hub, a charming showcase for our business. The renovation created distinct areas for interior design, floristry, hardware retail, and bedding, all while preserving the cottage's historic character.
The process began with careful planning and structural repairs, blending modern functionality with timeless charm. The final result features a vibrant showroom, a delightful florist section, an organised hardware space, and a serene bedding display. Now open to the public, this beautifully designed space invites customers to explore our full range of products and services.
