After working from home, it’s going to be hard to go into the office,” says a 30-something London media man who counts himself lucky to have spent a surprisingly blissful lockdown with his wife and twin toddler daughters. “Three meals a day in the kitchen, using the spare room in the attic as an office—it’s been a pleasure to spend so much time here,” he says of the family’s circa-1903 redbrick charmer in Queen’s Park, a bohemian enclave in northwest London. “I’m not sick of anything. I thought the colors were going to be a bit much, but they’re wonderful. There’s a real harmony about the place, but it’s not too serious; you don’t have to be on your best behavior. She
has such a skill for stylishness but also how to make a home.”

Sheltered beneath a towering canopy, the seat was inspired by the delirious 18th-century chinoiserie daybeds at Stanway House, the Earl of Wemyss’s Jacobean ancestral pile in Gloucestershire. Though the husband initially had misgivings (“How will I tell my friends I have a canopied sofa?”), he has become its biggest fan, lolling there with his daughters, reading books, or watching the television that’s concealed behind a zodiac-painted panel above the fireplace.

In Heuman’s world, there’s no reason to have a standard-issue oven hood, to cite yet another example of her cheerfully contrarian aesthetic. In the sunny new kitchen that extends into the garden at the rear of the house, smoke-extract pipes are concealed within a copper sheath-cum-shelf that snakes across a wall like a smartened-up piece of industrial flotsam. “In farms in Sweden, you see pipes clad in metal and which you can use for storage, too,” explains the designer, noting that the copper sheets, pieced together with matching nailheads, have “a lovely reflectiveness and will darken over time.”
