Gleaming
A client, of British interior designer Harriet Anstruther, once said this about her work:
She knows the importance of the quality of small things; a handle on a door, a switch on a wall.

School Room Convert
The entire top floor (elephantine proportions) of a classic Victorian school - formerly the gym and assembly hall. One of many unique locations in England filled with one-of-a-kind props, available for film and still shoots...
