Timelessness, Subtlety and Elegance – the ingredients that turn this project into reality. The mix between these three ingredients has guided this project, which goal was to create the perfect recipe and turn Bromley into an even more exciting place.
In one moment you’re just walking the streets of London and then: here comes the sun… the sun that Cue design, Ktesius and Essential Home brings to you through a project full of color and good vibes. These three players worked together to build an amazing collection of, not only houses, but experiences.

A fun CASA to go – the name speaks for himself - is a collection of proprieties with a tropical atmosphere and a mid-century signature. Besides this time travel to look for inspirations, this design has a contemporary side, which makes the perfect twist.
Georgina Chamberlain, from the CUE Design, was the designer in charge of the project and her goal was to create a timeless and subtle residential home. From this project was born a luxurious place where you can spend some quality time. It is almost like you are living in a tropical Hollywood ambiance and, for a moment, you actually forget about the typical London grizzly sky. You can also enjoy some private terraces, gardens and views, but the real magic and the warm feeling is inside.
This is the kind of project that makes you imagine how would it be to live there, but it is also the kind that makes you win the 2018 Interior Design-Build Award.

Guide tour to the living room
All of the products have their own personality and, of course, a propose. They are timeless and subtle, and with influences of the mid-century style they also bring up a contemporary elegance.

This is how this modern and tropical living room came to be.
Our first stop is next to Ivete Floor Lamp, shaped as a palm tree with a square carrara marble base and golden brass leaves. The lovely Ivete is perfect to bring up a tropical feeling that warms up any grizzled day in London. Its design makes this lighting fixture a perfect decorative piece for a modern living room decorated in clean and soft tones of cream.

Next, let us take a sit on our Collins Dining Chair. Collins brings that posh british style, and is designed with a classic retro chic feel, which comes finely upholstered in red velvet. The backrest is convex, allowing for comfortable seating, and perfect to pair with a circular dining table. This luxury armchair brings a pop of colour, especially when paired with the exotic birds wall art, which add the spicy look the project was looking for.

Moving on to the dining room, and keeping in mind a luxurious ambience, Collins Bar Chair fits perfectly with the Hollywood vibe. Upholstered in velvet, Collins has glamorous glossy black legs, accented by polished brass details.
This project was a really magic journey and experience, and is now is available for you to try and take your own experience from this opportunity.

About
Essential Home is an innovative mid-century modern furniture brand that takes important historical and cinematographic references from the 1930s and 1960s and turns them into unique furnishing pieces. What started out as ‘Essentials’ in 2015, a furniture collection by the mid-century lighting brand DelightFULL, quickly grew to be one of the most elegant representations of mid-century modern design, thus creating a new name, and a new brand, Essential Home.
“Soon we understood that this collection had a life of its own. Essential Home’ eclectic style inspired us to create more and more. We could no longer keep it inside doors,” said one of the designers involved in the creation of Essential Home.
Essential Home is currently based in Porto, Portugal, but its alluring designs are present in the most important interior design centers around the world, including London, Paris and New York.
WHAT INSPIRES US?
Essential Home gathers inspiration not only from the glamorous Hollywood life of the 1940s but also from the everyday life that defined that mid-century generation. Simple details such as the sleek lines of a futuristic 1960s chair, or retro ads that defined an era can be pinpointed in iconic pieces such as ‘Monocles sideboard’
