Different by Design

June 22, 2017

Acorn creates spaces people want to live in. Open, airy, contemporary spaces incorporating innovative design and quality, bespoke details, thoughtfully designed to complement their environment whilst embodying sustainable modernity. Here, we look at how Acorn’s ‘different by design’ mantra is put into practice.

The creative minds behind Acorn’s award-winning developments are Julian Hampson, group design director and Rena Makwana-Mistri, group interior designer. Both have years of industry experience, Julian specialising in urban design and regeneration and Rena working on a number of residential and commercial design projects before joining the Acorn team.

Behind every development lies Acorn’s ‘different by design’ ethos. Combining the location, opportunities and ideas with the fundamental elements of light and space, the design starts to take shape and reveal itself.

“The best design’s usually come from an instinctive response to these issues so ‘different by design’ becomes a natural evolution rather than a simple application of standard solutions,” say Julian.

In this way, each development is a unique response to its environment and its constraints, creating a distinctive development that enhances its location and presents a unique vision of the buyer’s lifestyle.

Whether a luxury beachside retreat, an elegant cosmopolitan townhouse or urban loft apartment, Rena carefully creates interiors that capture the essence of the desired lifestyle and its surroundings.

Acorn properties are thoughtfully designed with buyers’ needs in mind. Rena cleverly fashions interiors to offer optimum use of space and enhance and complement the airy, open plan layout. Working with quality suppliers, Rena ensures Acorn properties offer immaculate contemporary interiors, finished to the highest standard.

With an expert team of innovative creative designers, Acorn has cemented its status as one of the UK’s leading award-winning developers, creating beautiful bespoke properties.
