Despite referring to herself as an aspiring minimalist, Katy is a magpie for a mid-Century bargain and has been collecting furniture and accessories from the 1950s/1960s since it was affordable. She has combined this with the architecture of the building and the interior features they’ve added such as an almost cinematic Art Deco-inspired bathroom and an understated kitchen to great effect. Individual items include Kay Bojesen monkey, Ercol Pebble tables, Norman Copenhagen pendant lampshade, Original BTC lights, G-Plan chest of drawers, reconditioned school lockers, Newgate clock, Ingmar Relling sofa / chairs, Ercol daybed, Kodak lights.
