Hi, I’m Kelly Hoppen and welcome to week five of room rescue!

This week’s room has been sent in by Tracey Mayell, who wants to redecorate the sitting room of her cliff-top house in New Zealand to make it relate better to its surroundings.

I like this room, the seating area works well although I do not like the canopy over the sofa, it’s far too fussy and would look much better without it. The dining area is great although the detailed lamp detracts away from the beautiful chairs. The mirrored wall is not working, it reminds me of some kind of dance studio! An extra large mirror could still be used but perhaps framed and leaning against the wall. The main light also needs to be hung much lower.

Think you can do better? Put your design skills to the test and redesign next week’s room. Or to enter a room in your house for a redesign, email a high resolution photograph to roomrescue@mydeco.com.
