Estelle Manor

The decoration of multiple spaces across Estelle Manor, a hotel and private members’ club set in a Grade-II listed landmark house on an Oxfordshire estate.

For the Brasserie and Orangery, our brief was to create what might have already been - for the decoration to feel 'found', as though part of the historic fabric of the building. Layers of distressed plaster sit under panels created through shaded lines, working with and echoing the original architecture of the room. Faded foliage spreads across each panel, sometimes lost to the textural walls behind. The world is not too delicate or pretty; brambles and deadly nightshade weave through sprawling ground ivy. The atmosphere of the adjoining rooms feels fresh and inviting in the morning, yet romantic and atmospheric in the evening. 

At the Eynsham Baths & Tea Lounge, nestled in Estelle Manor’s woodland, this Roman inspired sanctuary is rooted in ancient tradition, where time softens and slows. Heavily textured walls embrace the history of the estate, giving the impression of aged plaster that has been subject to the passing of time, with layers peeling back over the years.

At Fallow House, Flemish-inspired
tranquillity meets contemporary sophistication. Soft, cloudy texture coats the walls, providing a sophisticated ambiance to the stairwell and first floor bar & lounge.
