Colorful Rooms in a Family Home in London

In the Wood Green Common conservation area in London stands this beautiful Edwardian house that has been decorated with plenty of color. The 1,400 square feet home has recently been renovated by its current owner, an interior designer.

The historic London home has an open plan living and dining space, a spacious kitchen, and three bedrooms upstairs. Every room in the house has a color accent, from colorful wallpaper in the hallway to bold mint green walls in the kitchen and colorful bedrooms.

What also sets this house apart from other London house lies outside. The house lies next to a private woodland area full of bluebells, accessed only by the avenue’s fellow residents, meaning it has a beautiful green outlook unusual for London.

On the ground floor is an open plan living and dining room. The color scheme in this room is pretty neutral with its light gray walls and wooden floorboards. At the front of the room, a bay window floods the room with natural light.

Colors from the wallpaper have been used as inspiration for the other walls and trims in the hallway which are painted pink and green.
