LUCY POWLESFOUNDED BY LUCY POWLES, COCOVARA PROVIDES AN ALL-ENCOMPASSING DESIGN SERVICE, EMBRACING ELEGANCE AND UNCOMPROMISING ATTENTION TO DETAIL. HAVING SECURED A NUMBER OF WORLD-CLASS PROJECTS IT CONTINUES TO BE AT THE FOREFRONT OF LUXURY DESIGN.

WE TALK TO LUCY ABOUT HER RECENT KNIGHTSBRIDGE PROJECT AND HER TOP FIVE INSIDER TIPS WHEN IT COMES TO INTERIOR DESIGN.

MEET THE DESIGNER

designer egos, therefore I’m quite flexible and I let my client express themselves in the project. Usually the outcome is great as you combine my knowledge and their taste. I love building relationships with my client, getting to know them on a personal level and I think this is really important, as designing their home is a very personal thing. It requires a full understanding of their interests, passions, restaurants they like and where they holiday etc.

WHAT WAS THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND YOUR CAREER IN INTERIORS?

I have always loved interiors since an early age. My mother was an interior designer and has been a great inspiration.

WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO CLIENTS?

I like giving directions and guiding my client to make the right choices with their properties. I don’t like big


DESIGNERLUCY POWLES FROM COCOVARA


WHO DO YOU ADMIRE WHEN IT COMES TO DESIGN?

I have always loved Christian Liaigre.

WHAT WAS THE BRIEF BEHIND YOUR RECENT PROJECT IN THE PENTHOUSE IN KNIGHTSBRIDGE?

The brief was to create a contemporary slick environment with its own personality. This apartment has large windows with amazing views across the capital and getting the right balance between natural light and functional light was essential. It was also important to make the apartment feel warm and welcoming, as there was so much glass in the property prior to renovation. It felt cold and more commercial than a home. The client also wished to display personal treasures as they collect antique accessories so we worked pieces into the contemporary scheme which created character and individuality.

WHAT DID YOU FIND MOST CHALLENGING AND REWARDING WITH THE FINAL DESIGN?

The most rewarding thing at the end of each project is seeing your vision come to life and the client’s reaction to the final product.


COCOVARAHYDE PARK


WHAT WAS THE BEST ADVICE YOU RECEIVED WHEN IT COMES TO INTERIOR DESIGN?

Beautiful designs are those that work well in a functional and ergonomic way and are not just about the look. But also, ‘keep it simple’. When things start getting complicated and your scheme is not working, just keep it simple. You can interpret that however you like.

WHAT ARE YOUR TOP FIVE INSIDER TIPS WHEN PLANNING TO DECORATE A ROOM?

1. Create a mood. By looking at images that inspire you put together a collection of mood

concepts, furniture, lights, things that catch your eye. Lay them out on a board and select your favorites. You’ll end up with a design concept.

2. Space planning. Organize the space by zone and assign to each zone a function.

3. Furniture layout. To ensure that the pieces you have selected fit well in the space.

4. Think about lighting. Mood lighting versus task lighting and natural lighting. How

you control these 3 elements to make the most of them. Window treatments are an important part of the design as they establish the amount of natural light coming in a room. Also, recessed spots vs table lights/floor lights. Concealed lighting is becoming more popular so perhaps look at LED too.

5.Accessories. Dress the room with your favorite objects and cushions.

P A T R I C K T Y B E R G H E I N


Paris in the mid-80's working on exclusive private residences for Alberto Pinto, but eager to widen my horizons, I migrated to London, working over a decade in the luxury hospitality industry across the globe during which, I refined my skills on large and prestigious projects. So when the opportunity came in the late part of the 90s, I decided to make the big step and formed CarterTyberghein with the aim to share my passion and vision for interiors.

Today, CarterTyberghein creates luxury interiors in the UK and abroad and is dedicated

WHEN AND WHY DID YOU START CARTERTYBERGHEIN?

CarterTyberghein was formed in 1997.

Why did I start my own practice? Well, it was a natural progression, I suppose.

It was always in the back of my mind. My uncle, who was an accomplished architect and artist, had without a doubt influenced me from an early age as I completely loved everything about his work and the atmosphere of his studio and this gave me some kind of direction in life.

Having started my career in

to designing ‘homes’, whether they are private, for ‘show’ or for ‘short stay’.

WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH WHEN CREATING UNIQUE LUXURY INTERIORS?

Every client’s requirement is specific to them, every building’s shape, size, style makes it distinctive in its own way and it is the combination of each client’s personality, and ultimately the pertinence of the design solution that makes every project unique.

However, at CarterTyberghein we give great importance


"In essence, we aspire to create simplicity and clarity, resulting in timeless sophistication and elegance."


to initial space planning to enhance or create the flow throughout the property, which is in our view, quintessential.

Being aware of the context and surrounding, ‘listening to’ the architecture of the building whether traditional or contemporary, then establishing some correlation with the interior space is our initial approach to designing unique interiors.

In essence, we aspire to create simplicity and clarity, resulting in timeless sophistication and elegance. This is our pursuit, our quest… punctuating design schemes with handpicked object d’art and oddities from our worldwide travels, bespoke individual pieces of furniture and fixtures, and last but not least, fabric, furniture handpicked material and finishes chosen from our continually evolving library.

As far as creating ‘luxury’, technology and ‘toys’ are also an obvious part of it, i.e. home automation, lighting control system, cinema room, swimming pool, wine cellar, and so on, all of which emanate a distinct sense of luxury.

WHAT INSPIRES YOUR VISION FOR A ROOM?

A wide range of influences tend to fuel our vision, whether it is the client’s need, the architecture of the building, its character, whether natural light

is in abundance or not - the way it can be optimized or the manner it interacts with the rest of the house. We always try to approach from a different angle to channel our vision.

However, for a better coherence, we are always very keen to avoid working rooms in isolation. Having considered all parameters, we are able to create innovative schemes combining colours, textures, accents and contrasted notes whatever the palette, harmonizing and bringing the room to life.

BY BEING AN ARCHITECTURALLY LED CONSULTANCY WHAT CAN CLIENTS EXPECT FROM CARTERTYBERGHEIN?

As CarterTyberghein is an architecturally-led practice we have a clear understanding from the outset of the design process and management required, which enables us to collaborate efficiently with clients architect partners, and offer realistic design solutions, either by taking a leading role or being part of a design team.

Also combining architecture and design enables our team to plan, develop and be pro-active in ensuring the smooth running of all aspects of the scheme and project in hand, down to details such as artwork and accessories - one vision, all under one roof.

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR MOST REWARDING PROJECT?

Every CarterTyberghein

project large or small has been rewarding - setting them in motion with abstract ideas that gradually become reality, guiding clients right through the design process, ensuring they remain involved and updated throughout the project. We are in partnership and the result has to be gratifying on both parts. Repeat commissions are our most powerful testimonial.

Nevertheless to name one amongst many, we are very proud of the refurbishment of a Grade-II listed building in Belgravia. Starting with very tired and garish decoration, we were assigned to recreate a comfortable, elegant home incorporating contemporary touches with lived-in quality. This was achieved by extensively sourcing the finest fabrics and materials, working with top cabinetmakers and artisans on special commissions, designing bespoke crystal chandeliers with gold dust finish and having them manufactured in Murano and so on.

On the architectural side of things, one of the main challenges was dealing with the introduction of air-conditioning throughout the property. As a result, this had considerable impact on the internal fabric of the building and its decorative features some of which we had to re-design to harmonise with the mid-19th century home. Special furniture was designed to incorporate and disguise the fan coil units, which were not to be seen! … but when there is a challenge, there is reward.

A few minutes’ walk from Kongens Nytorv and The Royal Danish Theatre in Copenhagen live the beautiful couple Trine (26) and Torben (31), who are both musicians. In a stunning late 19th Century tiled building stands their 83 square metre apartment.

Trine and Torben are both part of the musical project Jørck and

are currently working on their third record. As soon as you enter the apartment, it is hard not to notice that music plays a huge role in the couple’s life. From the bright living room with double doors you can see straight into the music room with its wall full of guitars. There are instruments and amplifiers scattered around the apartment.

From the kitchen sink you can spot the lush green backyard. By the old wooden table, Trine loves spending her time composing song lyrics, reading the newspapers and drinking coffee. The couple are inspired by popular culture in all its form such as books, music and odd creative personalities. Torben is particularly inspired by 60’s pop art and mod culture, both in the way he dresses and decorates. Beside the kitchen lies the bedroom. The couple have chosen to place the bed directly on the floor to get an airy and modest feel to the bedroom. On a clothes hanger from IKEA hangs a mixture of leather jackets, shirts and sequin tops. The display of garments of punky boots and suede shoes standing beneath makes it easy to grab an outfit when they are in a hurry. A large basket works as a perfect storing place for scarves and bags. In the ceiling hangs a white lamp from the Danish brand Le Klint, designed by Poul Christiansen. In the spacious window Trine has picked out her favorite perfumes that form a tasteful still life. The basis of the decor in the apartment is pure and simple

white walls, polished wooden floors and plentiful natural light, combined with warm wooden materials and Danish design furniture. Trines favorite piece of furniture is an office chair, designed by Danish Arne Jacobsen, that used to stand in her grandfather’s office in Nyborg. She also loves her Spanish chair in old worn cognac coloured leather, designed by Danish Børge Mogensen, which she inherited from her aunt. In the center of the living room stands Torben’s favorite piece of furniture, a round dark wooden dining table. “It is important to us that the objects that surround us carry a history that makes the room feel stimulating and alive. We’re both passionate about the idea of a home filled with pictures, books, vinyls and strange paraphernalia that inspire reflection. Right now our home is still a bit too minimalistic, but we’re looking forward to collecting some more books, records and pictures that will create the personal feel that we are after” says Trine. One of the couple’s future plans is to finish the music room. They want to build a low bench under the guitars and move the sofa to the

hangs a huge black-and-white poster of the artist Patti Smith and the bookshelves are filled with music literature. “Patti Smith is an artist who inspires me greatly, both as a person and visual artist. She is like a sacred icon to us" comments Trine.

Trine and Torben started creating their new home about a year ago. Prior to that, they used to live in a studio flat that was meant to contain all the functions of a compact living space. Now that they have a few more rooms they really enjoy having the opportunity to create a different character in each room. Torben prefers their home to have a bit of a Rock´n´Roll vibe, while Trine has a fondness for feminine and French bohemian details. On top of that, Torben likes contrasting colours, pop art and the artist Roy Lichtenstein, whilst Trine finds beauty in bright and delicate nuances.

“So it is no secret that is has been a bit of a challenge finding a mutual stylistic agreement, but most of the time it has been a fun journey together” Trine recalls with a smile.

Trine’s favorite spot in the apartment is the kitchen, where a shimmering light shines in through the windows. From

living room. They also dream of filling a wall with books and records and placing a great reading chair below it. Moreover, they are trying to figure out a solution to the arrangement of the stereo that is currently placed on the floor. They dream of a revamped bathroom, but that will probably have to wait. In the block surrounding the apartment you can find several cozy cafes and decor shops. One of the spots that Trine highly recommends you visit when you are in the neighborhood is Beau Marché, a shop filled with vintage furniture that also has a beautiful secret backyard where you can get served a glass of wine.

On her way home, Trine frequently visits the local florist.

“I love fresh flowers and try to stop by the shop as often as I can. I can’t get enough of it! The irony is that Torben is a bit allergic to fresh flowers, so he keeps moving them around to avoid them… I’m thinking


I should probably start buying potted plants instead. They don’t produce as much pollen, and they are much cheaper in the long run” Trine adds with a little laugh.

We can experience 13 bouts of stress every day, it has emerged.

A study into the stress levels of 2000 adults found the first flash hits early, in the middle of the night, in fact, with over two thirds of people waking in the night due to stress.

In the morning, not being able to find things like keys causes high levels of stress, before you even leave your home. Whilst feeling unhappy with our weight and self-image proved another reason to worry.

Work and finances were the

biggest source of anxiety in the average person’s life, while general day to day activities surprisingly proved the second biggest problem.

The research, commissioned by IKEA as part of its Life at Home report, found that parts of the UK, in particular Northern Ireland have a “powering through” attitude when it comes to stress, more so than when compared with the rest of the UK.

When further probed on how they handle stress, getting on with it and exercise were of the

RISE AND SHINE?

MODERN LIFE MEANS STRESS CAN HIT BEFORE YOU EVEN LEAVE THE BEDROOM.


most popular responses, and even the simplest of actions like hugging, often helped. However, shouldn’t the reasons behind stress be tackled instead of having to ‘power through’ and deal with it?

Myriam Ruffo, head of bedroom and bathroom at IKEA said: “With more and more people using mobiles and tablets in the bedroom and bathroom, these rooms are no longer safe havens where people can go to relax and revitalise.

Technology is encroaching on the bedroom and bathroom,

which will give them a better and more stress-free start to the day.”

Morning stress is most likely to be driven by overtiredness, being late and feeling overweight; linking back to the number of correspondents who were woken in the night due to stress, with 47 per cent admitting it made them feel tired all the time, and over a third saying it put them in a bad mood.

The workplace then prompts further flurries of negative feeling – heavy workloads,

limiting their healing powers; and this severely compromises people’s ability to cope with everyday stresses and strains.

It’s vital that people create a space where they can completely escape and find ways to organise their lives to combat stress before it has even begun.

Luckily, there are lots of small changes that people can make within the home, from getting their clothes ready the night before to keeping a pen and paper next to their bed to write down any nighttime worries,


computer malfunctions and a lack of time were the likeliest contributors.

And there’s no let-up back home with 22 per cent confessing their thoughts are often dominated by what they need to do for work the next day.

Getting to bed late, being contacted out of work hours and a worry that they weren’t taking care of themselves also prompted jolts of stress.

Interestingly, almost half of those questioned in the survey

“But as tiredness and losing our essential items were two key sources of frustration, ensuring you’re well-rested and organised can definitely reduce the stress of your day-to-day routine.

said they didn’t think it was normal or healthy for stress to be part of life, while over a third of Londoners think stress is normal if you want to be successful/financially comfortable.

And the build up of stress is taking a toll on home life – a third said keeping the house clean was a genuine contributor.

Myriam Ruffo added: “Certain stress triggers such as technology malfunctions and family issues can be somewhat out of our control.

1. Eliminate noise and learn how to relax before bed. Sudden loud noises disrupt sleep. Invest in

double-glazing or foam ear plugs to muffle annoying noise. Steady, low sounds are soothing and also help block out other noises. Some people may find special ‘white noise’ tapes help them

sleep better.

2. Run yourself a warm foamy bath an hour before bedtime – this raises your temperature and the

sleep mechanism is triggered by the core body temperature cooling down.

3. Prepare a milky drink or herbal tea for your late night cuppa – avoid caffeine such as tea, coffee

or chocolate.

4. Many sleep tips involve the use of lavender/lavender oil as a relaxant, while this does work it should NEVER EVER be used in pregnancy (like many other oils – check with a health care

professional (GP/midwife/pharmacist).

5. Don’t use alcohol as a sleep aid – it plays havoc with sleep patterns. It may help you fall asleep

initially, but will interrupt your sleep later on in the night. You will wake dehydrated.

6. Regular, moderate exercise such as swimming or walking can help relieve the day’s stresses and

strains. But not too close to bedtime or it may keep you awake!

7. Deal with worries or a heavy workload by making lists of things to be tackled the next day.

8. Resolve any arguments before bed. Ongoing conflicts are not conducive to putting you in the

right frame of mind for sleep!

9. When you get into bed, try to relax by reading a book, listening to some soothing music or even

do some yoga - all help to relax both the mind and body.

10. A dark room is most conducive for sleep as light tells your body it’s time to wake up. In darkness,

your body releases a hormone called melatonin that relaxes your body helping you to drift off. Light suppresses melatonin. Invest in lamp or dimmer light if you want to read in bed. Blue light

also inhibits the night-time secretion of melatonin so turn off computers, mobile phones etc.

ARTIST WILLIAM OXER


LOVE ART

William Oxer has painted for as long as he can remember. He spent his early career working in historic interiors, as assistant to Alec Cobbe at Hatchlands Park, and on projects at Harewood House, Goodwood and Buckingham Palace.

He now draws his focus back to traditional artwork, undertaking portrait commissions and building a following of collectors as far afield as the USA and Dubai.

William talks about his personal relationship with painting, his inspiration and his aspirations as an artist.

The Blossom, 2014Acrylic on Canvas

Size: 30 x 46 cmPrice: £1400


WHAT IS YOUR FIRST MEMORY AS AN ARTIST?

For my sixth birthday my parents bought me lots of beautiful coloured inks and a proper old-fashioned drawing pen. My family had a caravan at the bottom of the garden. There was a lovely old table in there, and I used to sit against these felt-filled cushion backs, happily on my own, drawing.

WHAT DREW YOU TO FOCUS ON A CAREER IN PAINTING?

I’d been in various jobs that I hated, and I’d been through a divorce, and I remember thinking, ‘What is it that I’m

IS THERE AN ARTIST YOU PARTICULARLY ADMIRE?

There have been so many who’ve inspired me at different stages. When I was 17 it was Augustus John, because of his painterly technique and drawing skill, but also his free spirit. There’s also Edvard Munch. As a youth I was quite a melancholy romanticist and I was fascinated by his life. I remember watching a fantastic three-and-a-half-hour Norwegian biopic that my brother recorded for me. It was amazing. I fell in love with the female lead.

actually good at?’ It all came back to painting. I feel it’s an innate thing that I’ve been given. It’s something that just comes through me. I find myself zoning out completely from the outside world when I’m painting.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR ARTWORKS?

In the last few years I’ve been focusing on classical portraiture and nudes. I like things with traditional beauty. As in architecture, which I love, my subjects represent form, design, colour and grace. What do they represent to me? Happiness. Peace of mind.

Ballet - Backstage, 2014Acrylic on CanvasSize: 40 x 25 cmPrice: £1600


The Dancer, 2014Acrylic on CanvasSize: 40 x 60 cmPrice: £2600


DO YOU ENVISAGE A SETTING FOR YOUR PAINTINGS TO HANG?

No I don’t. I make the picture and its frame as much of a thing of beauty as it can be, so it stands alone, and any setting will hopefully benefit from it. I use ornate frames with filigree slips, or hand water-gilded, hand-painted frames, which are made by my friend and framer Sallyanne Horley at Southgate Gallery in Exeter.

DO YOU HAVE A FAVOURITE PIECE?

Every painting I create invariably becomes my favourite, until the next one.

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR MOST CHALLENGING PIECE?

I recently completed a portrait commission of the current vice-president of Skype. That was a challenge given how many people will see it.

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE FUTURE?

I suspect that every hour that isn’t spent painting is possibly wasted, though there needs to be a routine that includes things like walking my dog. I’d love to be like Picasso who just painted and drew every single day. His output was extraordinary. For further information visit

this is based on.

It’s difficult for artists to feel that they have become a success simply because they have a recognised style. The whole importance of being an artist is that you can readily change and develop. Whilst your market can change, and the people who are following you may change, I think you can work in one style without having to stick to it. I’d like my work to be known not only for paintings of models and nudes, but other types of painting, landscapes and even abstracts. I just want to paint.

Located at 305 Portobello Road, Lisa's delivers a unique culinary experience coloured by owner Lisa Wallén's Swedish roots and childhood memories. Every dish is made with ingredients selected from Lisa's Scandinavian pantry and the menu is dictated by Sweden’s four distinct seasons of the year. The style is one of rustic

I remember seeing the restaurant owner sat at the end of the bar or at a little table in the corner with a cigar and a glass of wine or a whiskey, warmly shaking hands with each client who came over to him.

RESTAURANT REVIEW


OWNER LISA WALLÉNIMAGE BY MONIKA AGORELIUS

Witnessing the rise of chain restaurants during her international career, Lisa was determined to recreate that unique warm, welcoming atmosphere when she eventually opened her own establishment. With heart and soul invested and with her own name above the door, Lisa opened her first restaurant and bar in London during the summer of 2013 and as she explains, “I chose the name Lisa’s so people can always relate to the place with a ‘face’ as I’m always here.”

The majority of the food at Lisa’s is served tapas-style which has proved an excellent way of introducing Swedish cuisine to Notting Hill and clients are presented with traditional Swedish food with a modern twist, including different types of meat, fish and seafood depending on the seasons. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are available and Lisa’s is also able to offer gluten-free bread and desserts courtesy of Swedish gluten-free bakery Fria Gluten Free.

Lisa is keen to keep a local feel to her restaurant and as well as sourcing fish and seafood from the local fishmonger, George's Fisheries on Ladbroke Grove. Most of the chairs, tables and decorative items come from



the famous Portobello market. Fabrics are from the cloth shop across the street and paint, pens and paper come from the local art shop. Lisa’s graphics are courtesy of Anthony at the Graffik Gallery in Portobello Road and the chocolate in the desserts come from a local lady who is an artisan chocolate-maker.

“We’re creating a restaurant and bar where locals can have their say about menus, live bands and what art is on the walls. We’re also keen to host more events to help local artists and businesses as well as just having a lot of fun.”

" IRISH BEACH VINTAGE" SET THE TONE FOR THIS SPECTACULAR DAY


Ariane and Aidan's stunning wedding was set in the North cost of Co.Donegal, Ireland. A rugged traditional Irish countryside of vast beauty was the backdrop for their day.

The service took place in the stunning small wooden St Patricks Church in Meenacross. The doors where adorned on either side with large silver lanterns setting the tone for this vintage wedding.

Ariane wore a spectacular lace dress with a cut out back while the bridesmaids wore pale pink grecian styled dresses. The groom and groomsmen finished off the look in pale grey suits.

The reception was held in An Chuirt Gweedore, Co Donegal where the lace vintage theme was continued. Guests where shown to their table which had the table number displayed in a pearl picture frame. Tealights

inside glass jars decorated with lace and bells lit the room up. A decorted cream birdcage, candy table and scones with jam & cream all helped to create the vision for their day.

The cake was decorted in cream and pink icing showcasing a classic chic vintage design. While the first dance as husband and wife was to the romantic song "All of You" by John Legend.

The day itself was sunny and dry - a perfect day for photographs on the beach!
