Our house started life as two small farm workers cottages. The previous owners extended it in the 80\u2019s so it\u2019s a little bit of a mish mash but as my husband is a builder, we are slowly making improvements to it. It\u2019s a typical Sussex tile hung exterior, low ceilings and small windows but it\u2019s cute and cosy. However, our ultimate dream is to add a lovey glassy extension at the back.<\/p>\n\n<h3>How would you describe your unique style?<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m a maximalist at heart and love beautiful things, so my home is a riot of patterned textiles, artworks, and objects I\u2019ve collected. My colour palette is bold and saturated, so it delivers plenty of punch! I\u2019ve found that through sticking with my palette of core bright colours, all the eclectic elements in my home sit together harmoniously.<\/p>\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_3894\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3894\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3894 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162.jpg 800w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-450x675.jpg 450w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-225x338.jpg 225w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-20x30.jpg 20w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_007_0162-64x96.jpg 64w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3894\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Sophie Robinson at home \u2013 kids bedroom room with<a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/collection\/wool\/margo-selby-stripe\/margo-selby-stripe-frolic\/pegwell.html\"> Alternative\u2019s Margo Selby Stripe Frolic Pegwell<\/a> Carpet.

This will then direct me to the type of colours, furnishings, furniture and styling I will put together that supports this feeling. I think we get too focused on how we think a room should look, which is of course important but never the place to start.<\/p>\n\n<h3>What advice would you give when choosing a colourful and\/or patterned carpet?<\/h3>\n<p>First, I\u2019d congratulate them. Going for a bold colour and pattern on the floor can be a wonderful way to make a strong statement in a room, and too often the floor is overlooked. Signature patterns usually work well in a room where you want to create impact. Busy patterns will create energy and intrigue. A smart stripe will draw the eye, up the stairs for example, for a striking effect, or help a small room look longer. Geometric patterns go particularly well with floral wallpapers, I love the juxtaposition of something flowing and organic next to a tight respective pattern, it creates great friction.<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3896 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290.jpg 800w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-225x150.jpg 225w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_110_0290-144x96.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Sophie Robinson at home \u2013 the landing with Alternative\u2019s Seagrass Herringbone Carpet.

I absolutely hated it when we bought the house. It\u2019s UVPC plastic and has been used as my husband\u2019s tool shed for the past 5 years. But we gave it a makeover before Christmas, and I just cannot believe the transformation. After emptying it of tools and bikes we simply painted it and wow what a transformation. We hosted Christmas dinner in there and I had a girls get together last weekend. It\u2019s a wonderful entertaining space.<\/p>\n\n<h3>What is the next project for your home?<\/h3>\n\n<p>The garden. We have a big space and it\u2019s felt overwhelming to tackle so we just do a bit at a time. Tom built a great tree house for Arthur in lockdown, which is magical. However, I want to create some terraced areas around the outside of the house. We have the most beautiful view and I\u2019d love to have a seating area where we can sit back and enjoy it.<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3898 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259.jpg 800w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-450x675.jpg 450w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-225x338.jpg 225w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-20x30.jpg 20w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AlunCallenderPhoto_SophieRobinson_014_0259-64x96.jpg 64w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Sophie Robinson at home \u2013 the office with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/collection\/quirky_b\/quirky_b__margo_selby_collection\/margo-selby-ribbon\">Alternative\u2019s Margo Selby Ribbon<\/a> in Magenta Rug.
