She specialises in the restoration and refurbishment of period and listed buildings with emphasis paced on conserving their historic value and features whilst bringing them into the 21st century.

Many of her commissions are abroad which involves the challenges of learning about and incorporating local cultures and trends. She also enjoys working on new build homes and the challenge of adding architectural details and character to them.

“Every job is a new challenge and learning curve, a bit like a new hand of bridge and I very much embrace working with the clients to ensure the end result reflects their lifestyle and expectations," says Henrietta.

"Coming very much from an historical and classical background with a love for architecture, my main aim is to respect the style/period of the home and to retain as many original feature as possible whilst making it practical and liveable for todays every changing encounters.”

Country Life

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
