A busy April in lots of ways here at AMID, lovely to see some sunshine at last and as usual our work is varied and rewarding with welcome breaks for family, friends, gardening and, of course, horses. I particularly love the images of the beautiful blossoms and spring roses amongst the progress pictures from some of our latest projects.

As you probably already know, It is, and always has been, the Year of the Horse for me! I love and treasure these rather simple and primitive paintings I have picked up over the years , especially Gordon in his stable rug dated 1912 (with a docked tail)….and the sculpted head which my lovely friends clubbed together and bought me for my 60th birthday from -

These images are from a recent site visit to a potential project which I would really love to be involved with…so fingers crossed!! 🤞🏼

The third rendition of this Hall was built between 1842 and 1854 and it has an incredible history.

👉🏻Swipe to see some of its stunning architectural features which show that it was clearly built with love, passion and craftsmanship.

Many of our projects involve working with properties of historic interest, some dating back centuries, that have passed through numerous phases of use and transformation. These buildings carry the traces of the people who have lived in them before.

When I asked the owners of this house whether the etchings on the fireplaces had been made by their children, they explained that this was far from the case. They were believed to be symbols associated with witchcraft and were carved into fireplaces, doorways and windows to protect their homes from evil.

We carefully appraise the existing condition of historic buildings and work closely with local authorities and Historic England to reimagine these spaces, allowing them to be enjoyed by a new generation and those that follow.

Back in early December I visited Cairo and the new Grand Egyptian museum.

Between the chaos of Christmas and New Year I didn’t have the chance to post any pictures but it was a fabulous trip.

Here are some images which capture the sheer scale, detail, beauty and overwhelming history that define this extraordinary place.

Last July we purchased Castlegate House, the property which abuts Riverside House seen to the left on this picture. After 6 months of restoration work which has included blood, sweat and some tears …. we are just about there and just in time for Christmas. Thank you to everyone who made this possible. Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and best wishes for 2026 from Amanda, the AMID team and all of us at here at Riverside/Castlegate House

These boot rooms and dog-print wallpapers feel especially fitting for this time of year… 🍂

We all acknowledge the kitchen as being the heart of the home but in terms of functionality if you are lucky enough to have a boot/mud room then this works as a brilliant transitional space to keep the clutter and pets at bay.

When designing a boot room we count up the coats, measure the wellies and line up the dogs! These boot rooms from various projects bring practicality with a sense of style to an otherwise functional space.

We used the wallpaper for a cloakroom in a lovely country house and horse owners home and the playful print adds personality and charm to the space 🐕
