Janet made her tastes in diverse styles - industrial, cutesey, kitsch, and designer, work with her husband's love for comic characters. But it wasn't easy. It took a clever balance of colour and an eye for what goes together and what doesn't.

Quirky and fun yet a distinct industrial vibe, this spacious home is a distinctive showcase of homeowners Janet and Steven Che's personalities. Janet, an art director in a creative agency, and Steven, who works in finance, wanted their flat to have a raw and loft-like quality, yet be cosy and comfortable. "

The industrial look can be cold, so it was important to use plants and punchy colours to balance it out," says Janet.
