‘Us, 15 years ago, pre-kids, is how we imagined the perfect inhabitants for this space,” says interior designer Edwina Boase. She and her interior architect husband, Marc Boase, bought the tiny, top-floor rental flat, in one of Brighton’s graceful Regency buildings, specifically to have a bit of fun with it.
With sole access to the loft, the couple embarked on an adventurous redesign, boosting the unloved and long-neglected flat’s footprint from 40 to 55 square metres, and turning it into a two-bedroom maisonette, now bursting with colour, pattern and small-space design hacks aplenty.
