Faye Toogood is arguably one of the most influential designers of our time. So when we noticed that her three-bedroom apartment in Hampshire was listed on The Modern House (the design-focused real estate company co-founded by her husband, Matt Gibberd), we knew we had to find out more. Take a tour:
The entry leads to the living room, where one of Faye’s iconic pieces, the Roly Poly Chair, in fiberglass, greets visitors.
Faye and Matt had the apartment gut-renovated. Among the changes in the living room was the addition of the two tall glass doors leading to the patio.
The home is decorated with a mix of custom designs, contemporary pieces, and vintage finds.
Faye had the wall between the living room and kitchen removed so that it’s now one long open space.
The monumental Sculptor’s Table is designed by Faye. “It is made from solid oak and covered in layers of car paint and lacquer," she says.
More Noguchi pendants in the main bedroom.
The bedroom also features a French cast-iron bathtub, found on eBay, in front of bay windows.
The twins’ room with cribs from Ikea.
“This is our private courtyard," says Faye, which the couple redid with garden designers Rich Landscapes.
