Housebuilder Harron Homes has opened new showhomes at Shipley Lakeside in Shipley near Heanor.
The two showhomes were designed by Midlands based interior designers, Open Door Interiors. Managing Director Tracy Baker described the elegant style of the two showhomes: "We genuinely love working with Harron Homes because its product has that 'hotel' feel and bespoke finish," she said. "This provides a beautiful template for us to decorate the tasteful and refined interiors we pride ourselves on.
"The larger of the two showhomes is the three-bedroom Warkworth. It's a build ideally suited to families looking for a tasteful, elegant design. The colour palette is selected with that audience in mind. Delicate tones of beige meet lighter ivory shades, balanced finely against French blue for a subtle contrast. It’s perfect for that tasteful hotel feel.
"The smaller four-bedroom Windsor is ideal for families looking for a bright, spacious design with a work-from-home appeal. Our base colour palette of white, silver grey and mauve helps compose suave, comfortable spaces with a clear, open and peaceful feel to them.
"The high-specification kitchen is the focal point of this home. Harron Homes incorporates glass in its homes, which gives a natural feeling of light and spaciousness. The use of a bay window lends a wonderful brightness to the kitchen that’s perfect for the upcoming spring and summer seasons. We were then able to supplement this with beautiful wood-panelling, balancing the boutique finish of the overall style with a touch of the traditional."
