"Alivar has furnished a historic building in Surrey
Built in 1850, this historic Georgian-style property is located on a hilltop in the peacefulcountry setting of Surrey, an English county located in the South-East with a beautiful viewoverlooking the hilly landscape.The property was recently superbly refurbished as part of a prestigious residential projectthat, in addition to the historic building, features six new apartments.The manor house, which is surrounded by an enchanting garden, has two floors: on theground floor, there is a kitchen, living area, dining room and bathroom; on the first floorthere are three bedrooms, each fitted with an en-suite bathroom, a walk-in closet, a utilityroom and storage space.Alivar's furnishing solutions were chosen for this important project in which practicality andfunctionality come together in the purest of forms, devoid of excessive decorativeelements, to create a contemporary style.
In the spacious living area, the great Portofino sofas and footstools take centre stage.With their slender, sinuous shapes and neutral beige and dove-grey tones, they catch theeye thanks to their sophisticated minimalism. 'Accompanying' the padded Portofinofurniture is Poggio, the small rectangular table with its slender structure which frames thelight, elegant marble top.In the dining room, guests are invited to sit on the soft, comfortable Diva chairs which alignaround the large Board table which features a striking, symmetrical design and marblesurface. The dining area also features Side Up, two sideboards which conceal anexclusive bar unit fitted with drawers and shelves.In line with the hyper-modern style of the kitchen are the Kiron stools with seats inpolycarbonate. Thanks to the gas mechanism of its chromed steel frame, this stool isadjustable and can rotate 360°.
