Tour an English Duplex Updated With Rich Color and Personality
When the homeowners of this split-level Victorian home first contacted interior designer Amy Hunt, they were struggling to know how to make their new place feel like home. They needed improved storage and comfortable furnishings and decor that would create a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. “There were no wardrobes, no cupboards and just lots of hooks, so it really did need rethinking,” Hunt says. Aside from addressing the couple’s practical needs, Hunt, who uses Houzz Pro business software, introduced dark color and texture, both to warm up the home and to make the narrow spaces look bigger.

Fantastic use of space and looks so cosy and inviting too
Thank you so much featuring my interior design project! Really loved working on this project.
These small spaces are demanding and the designer accomplished a lot. I liked the laundry in the upper hall closet, the wallpaper on the back of the book shelves, the uncluttered powder room, and just about everything. I’m always happy to see a floor plan included in the article. It’s fun to see the range of where people live, from small to average to huge homes in Houzz articles.
Could you share details on the kitchen countertops? Materials? Manufacturer? Thank you
Really like the idea of bringing the outside colors in to blend the exterior with the interior as one cohesive space. It's subtle yet effective. The extension and continuity actually make the place feel bigger. Lovely.
