Above: In the cosy sitting room, Hannah opened up the original fireplace and sourced a reclaimed surround, installing a new wood burner Hannah Benton has been busy. Since deciding to leave her London life and relocate with her partner Jack to the pretty coastal town of Deal, she’s joined forces with her mother Belinda and formed interiors company Studio Benton, and renovated her new house. In the middle of this – and not long after Studio Benton was born – so was son Jasper. “I was in London working in an interior design company,” says Hannah, and, as for so many people around that time, Covid inspired a ‘what next’ question. “There was always going to be a move to the country, but I guess this accelerated the process. Jack and I made the decision to relocate to Deal and that precipitated the business move. Geographically it made sense – it was hard to square with me being in London, so it was an obvious solution, and an ideal opportunity.” Studio Benton (which started off as Evernden Interiors in Cranbrook) have moved to Deal – to a beautiful period studio and showroom. The studio is just a short 20 minute walk away at the other end of the high street, a civilised step back for Hannah from the bustling pavements of West London. Hannah and Jack moved to their Georgian terraced town house between lockdowns starting work straight away. “The house hadn’t been lived in for a number of years. It was very dated, but luckily no structural work needed to be done. However, it needed completely new plumbing, heating and electrics. We had to totally strip it out and bring it up to date.” Layouts in old houses are not always ideal for modern living, but Hannah and Jack have managed to reorganise the ground floor and put a bathroom in upstairs. “Lots of Deal houses that are listed Georgian buildings have a single storey extension at the back,” she explains. “We also re-sized the opening between reception rooms, making it more spacious.” 27 priceless-magazines.com
