When a diplomat living in London recruited designer Michael Reeves to make over her home, she requested a space where she could entertain friends and work from home, a space that felt warm and inviting, but not dated. She had recently combined two townhouses in London's Eaton Square and needed a design that flowed seamlessly, while also incorporating the distinct details throughout the two spaces.

Reeves delivered on her requests, and then some.

The designer brought in soft golds and grays and added a gray-wash floor to marry the two townhouses into a single, fluid home. He then brought in pieces from Christie's, furniture the client already owned, and items from his own collection to bring the townhouse to life.

Take a tour of the renovated home in the photos below.
