Home Tour

This week, we’re stepping inside creative director and designer Reena Simon’s stunning 1960s bungalow in the suburbs of Cardiff. This once-ordinary property has been reimagined into a calm, cosy, and tactile space that feels like a cabin in the woods. Drawing on Scandinavian minimalism and British craftsmanship, Reena used polished concrete floors, cross-sawn oak and inky blue-black cabinetry to bring warmth, texture and light to every corner. From the dining room’s garden views to the hotel-style bedroom, every detail reflects the influence of the surrounding landscape. Watch as she shares more about her favourite rooms, design process and how she created a home that balances modern simplicity with organic warmth.
