What’s our approach when designing bathrooms? As bathrooms were not an original feature of a Georgian property, we aim to create spaces that feel worthy of the character and status of the house.

We specify quality brassware and sanitaryware to deliver durability and longevity, and combine these with beautiful tiling and wallcoverings to create bathrooms that are far from homogenous and reflect the detailing that goes into adjacent bedrooms.

Individually designed and custom-made vanity units, which read as pieces of furniture in their own right, are often topped with ornate framed mirrors and combined with wall lights to ensure that the character and ambience are right for any moment. Overly contemporary touches are kept to a minimum, but tiled in alcoves, underfloor heating and LED lighting within a shower can subtly enhance the whole experience.

High-quality brassware is essential - there are some beautiful ranges in classical styles that absolutely don’t compromise on functionality from brands like Samuel Heath, who make all of their brassware in a factory in Birmingham.

In Georgian design, the relationship between house and garden was never accidental. The architecture, views, proportions and landscape were intended to work together as one carefully composed whole.

For owners of period properties, this means looking beyond planting alone. The most successful gardens respond to the architecture of the house: its scale, symmetry, materials and the way the principal rooms look out onto the landscape.

Terraces, paths, lawns and borders should feel properly proportioned. Views from sash windows and garden doors should be considered as part of the interior experience. Materials should sit comfortably with the period of the building and the transition from house to garden should feel graceful rather than abrupt.

As with interiors, the key is balance: enough order to respect the Georgian architecture, softened with planting that brings life, movement and seasonal beauty.

An interior designer isn’t just there to make things look beautiful at the end of a project.

The real value lies much earlier, in anticipating problems, refining decisions, and creating clarity before work begins on site. Most renovations involve far more decisions than expected, often under pressure. Our role is to remove that pressure entirely by planning everything in advance, from layout to lighting to the smallest detail.

Because when design is considered early, the result is always more cohesive, more efficient, and more refined.

A recent visit to Scotland and the historic St Andrews golf course (St Andrews Links) led us to reflect on the origins of the game during the Georgian era, a time when golf was evolving from informal play on coastal links into something more structured, social, and enduring.

From the first recorded rules in Edinburgh in 1744, to the formation of the Society of St Andrews Golfers just a decade later, this was a period that helped shape the game as we know it today. Played with handcrafted clubs and feather-stuffed balls, golf was as much about culture and society as it was sport.

That legacy still lives on in St Andrews - and continues to inspire us at Etons of Bath. We don’t simply design for Georgian properties; we’re drawn to the spirit of the period, and the way its ideas, craftsmanship, and traditions still shape how we live today.

Hidden behind bespoke flame mahogany wardrobes on the first floor of this Georgian Rectory, sits this characterful bathroom decorated with a mural depicting Indian landscapes, wildlife and architecture.

The custom-made vanity unit is designed as a piece of furniture in its own right with his and hers marble basins, oval framed mirrors and classic wall lights completing the enchanting aesthetic. In the shower, the bold Emporada marble continues the sepia tones found in the wallcovering. This bathroom is one of our absolute favourites, it has a wonderfully transporting quality - a real-life Narnia.

Our projects, which are always driven by our clients’ ambitions, include anything from hotels to houses and country estates to luxury apartments.

Our approach is inspired by left-brain/right-brain thinking. Our team is structured to achieve all the elements a project needs from brief to detailed design, construction, procurement, project management and final installation.

Our design team is the right - an experienced creative force that interprets the clients’ brief with flair and inspiration. Our FF&E and project management team is the left - accuracy, technical ability, foresight and organisation that ensures every project runs smoothly. The combination of these teams and talents is rare, but we believe it is essential in delivering projects that feel personal, whilst ensuring the process is enjoyable, efficient and inspiring.

John Nash was one of the great architects of the Regency era, helping to shape both London and the wider architectural mood of the period. Working closely with the Prince Regent, later George IV, he was responsible for some of Britain’s most recognisable landmarks, including Regent Street, Regent’s Park, the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, Marble Arch and the remodelling of Buckingham Palace. His work moved confidently between refined classical planning and the more theatrical picturesque style that defined Regency taste.

A rather wonderful detail from his private life is that Nash designed his own home, East Cowes Castle on the Isle of Wight - a romantic Gothic fantasy where he entertained notable guests including the Prince Regent and J. M. W. Turner.

Have you ever spotted John Nash’s architecture in London or elsewhere?

Step inside this elegant Georgian townhouse that epitomises our classic contemporary design style.

The owners of this home in the heart of Clifton were moving to the next chapter of their lives from the country house that had been their family home.

Through our Stylefinder process, we established a desire for interiors that felt more contemporary than those they had previously lived with, while still reflecting the house’s architecture. Alteration works were already underway when we were appointed, creating a compressed design programme that required swift and carefully coordinated decisions. The arrival of the pandemic briefly paused on-site work, allowing a little more time to work through the scheme.

The entrance hall sets the tone, with our bespoke marble floor design featuring an inlaid border, classic lanterns and contemporary wall lights chosen to sit beautifully alongside the original fanlight above the front door.

In the drawing room on the principal, first floor, we added moulding details to the walls to create a panelled design to achieve a careful balance between the classic and contemporary elements. The drawing room is open through a square arch into a kitchen diner and a light-filled breakfast room beyond. With Crittall-style doors at the entry to the breakfast room and French doors with an original ironwork balcony overlooking the garden, the transition through these spaces becomes progressively lighter and more modern while retaining a clear sense of continuity throughout.

The second floor was reconfigured to create individually tailored ‘his and hers’ suites, connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom and complemented by two dressing rooms. Each bedroom was given its own distinct character through specialist feature wallcoverings and a personalised colour palette, whilst both favouring contemporary forms in furniture and lighting.

This dressing room was designed to feel both highly practical and quietly luxurious, with warm oak bringing depth, richness and character that immediately gives the space a sense of permanence.

The joinery has a strong architectural presence, with panelling, arch details and carefully scaled cornicing helping it feel rooted in the language of the house rather than simply fitted into it. Brass inlays and hardware add a refined layer of detail, catching the light beautifully and sharpening the overall composition without tipping into excess.

Open storage allows favourite pieces, shoes and accessories to be easily seen and enjoyed, while still feeling orderly and elegant, and the central island introduces another layer of generous storage beneath a marble top that is perfect for laying out clothes and accessories.

The integrated bench is both practical and inviting, making the island feel like a true piece of furniture rather than pure utility, while the lighting - both ambient and integrated - ensures the room feels warm, flattering and easy to use at every time of day.
