Interiors - here, there and everywhere!


Hello and welcome to our new look site.

The last few years have been a challenging time for Caroline with pressures due to work both in the UK and France together with health & family issues and so "apologies to anyone who contacted us and didn't receive a response".

As a result Caroline has decided to take some time out from MCH Interiors to concentrate on work in her properties both HERE (in Hertfordshire) and THERE (in the Haute Vienne).

So, in the meantime Caroline will report back on changes she has made, the items & people or companies used, including interesting sites and bargins or updated furniture. These will be reported on in the HERE, THERE and EVERYWHERE tabs and will include, where possible, before and after shots plus close-ups of the items including supplier information.

We hope you will find this inspiring and stay with us.

This section will explain about the work on our home in Hertfordshire. It will also cover some of the design and decision making processes used to update our home. But to start...

We moved in 16 years ago, just after we got married, and prior to setting up MCH Interiors Interior Design service. Although we completely redecorated some areas, others were tackled on a needs basis as time went on.

The first rooms tackled were the living and dining rooms. Here we used quality wallpapers from Today Interiors and although the colour and finish was still as new the styles were looking rather dated and needed to be replaced.

When we bought our place in France a lot of our older inherited furniture and our own Victorian styles (original oe repro) pieces were ear-marked to move over there. Find out more here.....

This section will tell the story of our place in France with the layout plan of the building including before and after pictures of each area. It will also cover some of the design process and the decision process behind the contents used when creating our second home. But to start...

How it all began.....

A few years ago when, as a self-employed Interior Designer work pressures made it difficult to take holidays for more than a few days at a time, we decided to find a holiday home on the Continent where we could get way from it all but still keep in touch from across the Channel. We spent several years visiting different regions of France and it was only after our friends moved out to the Dordogne that we settled our search in the Limousin area.

We had always loved France with its lifestyle, countryside and culture not to mention the wine so began exploring the country in our search for the 'perfect' property. Find out more here.....
