Author India Knight's bright, eclectic family home...
Approaching the grass-green door of India Knight's home, an unsuspecting visitor has no idea that it's merely a subtle nod to the delights within. Step through and the joyful impact of bold shades, twinkly lights and an endless booty of quirky finds puts an instant smile on your face.
The Sunday Times columnist and author India moved from Dalston in Hackney to leafy Primrose Hill five years ago with sons Oscar, now 16, Archie, 13, and about-to-be-born Nell, now five.
With her growing children and her ever-growing collection of objects, books and finds, does she ever think about upping sticks and finding a new space to colonise? 'Absolutely not. I'm never moving again! I love my house, I love where it is – we all know how fortunate we are to be here.'
'Besides, I've recently discovered that the [John Oliver Kinky Pink] paint shade I love so much is now actually discontinued, so it look as though we have to stay!'
