The area is very flat and narrow with a lot of wood, so I felt that we needed to play with texture to soften the space and to design decor pieces that would add height.

I created huge mirrored arcs with soft billowing curtains to showcase over-sized floral cascades. The arcs also doubled as lighting rigs for the lounge area.

Cascades of flowers hung from enormous pieces of driftwood. The mirrored arc reflected the light and became almost invisible as the sky grew dark.

I created a glamorous fire pit lounge with mirrored bar so guests seated at the far end of the deck would feel compensated. They had a great view of the custom-built dance floor covered in shimmering discs of mother-of-pearl.

This is normally just a round sun-bathing deck with no barrier, so I designed the bar to run around the edge, with a dance floor in the centre so nobody could fall in to the sea.

The family own a furniture-production firm so I worked with the family to custom-design and produce all the furniture.

The floral arrangements were simple and delicate to match the simplicity of the driftwood.
