THE BOWER HOUSE - GS MAGAZINE - 2017
“As a listed building , the original walls, floors, ceilings and plasterwork had, of course, to be retained. The owner’s brief to interior designer and curator Liana Braune was to celebrate rather than work against this, and the result is a series of distinctive, evocative and beautiful rooms. Braune, previously curator at The Museum of Everything, sourced artwork from “artists I know and admire, and dealers and fairs up and down the country”. One room is heavily hung with eclectic oils, prints and sketches, with bottle green banquettes and bentwood chairs. Another room is kingfisher blue with mid-century bridge chairs, another is a deep, Georgian red with vintage copper-topped tables.”

“The design process has been centred upon sensitivity to heritage. Upstairs in the grill room, a lighter colour palette provides the backdrop to antiqued green leather seats and thick oak tables. Elegant glass fittings and art celebrating the site’s history finish the room, including classic river scenes, vintage maps and a portrait of Samuel Pepys. These design elements, overseen by Liana Braune are continued to the third floor, the ultimate spot for private dining or standing parties.”
