Above: The master suite. The bed is from Selfridges. A corsetshaped
lightshade by Sera of London sits atop a 70s base made
with real ostrich eggs Below left: Saucy touches include a framed
copy of Playboy with Kate Moss on the cover
a feature wall covered in pink toile wallpaper bedecked
with zebras, flamingos and giraffes. Above the bed hangs
an unusual metal music light adorned with fat yellow and
pink bulbs. Built-in storage units fit neatly along one wall
under the window. The girliness is toughened up with
a Perspex dressing table set on industrial style legs.
Second daughter, ten-year-old Tippi Rose, has a
room which is a bit Alice in Wonderland meets a zoo.
Birdcage toile curtains juxtapose against a green and
white harlequin wallpapered feature wall. The animal
theme is resplendent in a feathered fake swan head,
a rabbit lamp sitting atop a tiger table and a stuffed
wolf peeping down from the top of a wardrobe.
The elegantly rumpled pale pink bed linen on the
twin upholstered French beds looks vintage but came
from M&S. Both rooms seem so age perfect for the
girls that it’s a surprise to learn they only recently
swapped bedrooms having each preferred the other’s.
But it’s when we get into the master suite that the
wow factor really kicks in. This is a Kent bedroom
masquerading as the VIP suite in a 1930s ocean liner.
There’s a huge white upholstered bed bought from
