Hidden storage.
Secret spaces.
A whole pantry behind a door. A bar waiting to be opened. A mirror with more to it than meets the eye.
These are some of Lisa’s favourite details to design. Explore the real spaces, inside and out, and see how much a room can quietly hold.
03 / Bathrooms with something extra
Behind a mirror.
Beside the bath.
In this earlier studio Wellness Suite, a full-height mirror opens onto illuminated shelves. A drawer concealed in the bath surround keeps towels close by. Both are easier to appreciate with the doors open.
Another reveal: the hidden basin-side cupboard at Ash House
A slim timber panel slides aside beside the basin, giving everyday toiletries a discreet home.
05 / Living rooms with another side
The screen can disappear, too.
At Conifer, the television is concealed beside the fireplace. Opening the cabinet reveals the screen; the lower drawers provide everyday storage. The whole wall is considered as furniture, lighting and display together.

A long-standing
love of secret spaces.
Our earlier stories, Secret Storage and Secret Spaces, return to an idea that still guides us: plan what the room needs to hold at the beginning.
Internal drawers, door racks, pull-out fittings and hidden rooms all start with the things you use. The aim is storage that feels natural to live with, and a little delight when you open it.
