Behind The Scenes Shopping Trip with Interior Designer, Eily Roe

Take a look at some of the behind the scenes from an exciting shopping trip with SeaGreen interior designer, Eily Roe.

image-1

Eily first took us to ‘Stone and Tile Studio Greystones’ where she was selecting tiles for the bathrooms in SeaGreen. She is choosing simple designs that will appeal to a lot of people. She also pointed out a bathroom tap that she thought would be a great fit for the SeaGreen show house, with its contemporary and ‘on vogue’ style.

image-2image-3

Next stop with Eily was to select some carpets for the house at ‘Brereton Carpets Greystones.’ She had already chosen some nice pink and blue fabric for one of the bedrooms in the house, so was looking to get some curtains to match this, with nice vibrant shades of blue as one of her choices. Eily really wants to mix it up with colours and patterns for the carpets to create a fun and welcoming vibe in the house, using excellent quality Ulster carpet.
image-4

For our final store visit with Eily, she took us to ‘Ryle & Company’ in Kilmacanogue, where she showed us the upholstery fabric she had already pre-selected for a really big L shaped sofa in the living room of the show house. The fabric she had chosen was a lovely dusty pink, to compliment the soft and warm paint colours she has selected for the house, in order to create an inviting atmosphere.

image-5image-6

The prospective purchasers of these new SeaGreen homes will have the pleasure of spending a day with Eily Roe themselves, so she can help you with the aesthetic for your new home and choosing your finishes throughout the house.

What time of entertainment and dining options are available to you?

SeaGreen will boast the highest quality specification and attention to detail in all features of its design, a trademark that people have come to expect from Wood Group Homes.

The Wood Group is a third generation family-run company that have been building premium quality homes for 40 years. Wood Group combine superb craftsmanship and attention to detail with progressive architecture and design, to create homes with character and personality.
