I recently shot a huge property which had been a long running project for London and Brighton based interior designer Clare Topham. The double fronted converted vicarage in the center of Brighton is a handsome Victorian property that once served the church that stood next door had been lavishly restored. This was no small task in a property with close to 20 rooms! In the main house this included a kitchen, breakfast room, dining room, snug, dance room, study, music room, living room, four bedrooms and three bathrooms. On the top floor there was also a self-contained apartment.
All the rooms were finished to a very high standard and had their own distinct feel, but one of my favourite spaces was the downstairs cloakroom with its shimmering gold wallpaper, it felt very decadent. The entrance hall featured bespoke chandeliers made from individual ceramic butterflies and the raw silk drum shades in the dining room sported a hot pink lining to tie in with the wallpaper, with the roman blinds in matching fabric.
