Rather than returning it pedantically to the sixteenth century, the interior was imagined to have evolved gradually, with freestanding furnishings and storage that shared the building\u2019s handmade irregularities, selected from across centuries. Taking cues from William Morris, textiles play a leading role, providing ornament, color, softness and warmth within the traditional materials.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Country Home In The City<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/inspirations\/#filter=.category-dining-rooms?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=article-image&amp;utm_content=covethouseblog-topids22&amp;utm_campaign=topID&amp;utm_term=mmachado1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-88262\" src=\"https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city.jpg\" alt=\"Retrouvius: More Than Projects, Solid Relationships With Clients\" width=\"850\" height=\"561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city-768x507.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city-640x422.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city-450x297.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city-225x149.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.covethouse.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/country-home-in-the-city-20x13.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>From the inside, it\u2019s hard to believe this is a central London townhouse.
