Homeowners consulting interior designers in Fulham to update their property might be looking at the royal family for inspiration, as regal architecture and furnishings never go out of fashion.

Although most people do not have the palatial grounds lots of members of the royal family boast, everyone can adopt some of the timeless styles seen in palaces and official residences.

For instance, Kate Middleton and Prince William are known to be big fans of complementing traditional interiors with the fixtures and fittings typical of a young family, showing off oil paintings alongside some of their children’s artwork.

Prior to moving into Anmer Hall in Norfolk, the Georgian estate underwent a £1.5 million refurbishment, overseen by Ben Pentreath, who had previous experience renovating their apartment in Kensington Palace.

Royal expert Ingrid Seward told OK! magazine that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge prefer neutral shades, such as cream and light greys.

It was said: “It’s very beige and grey, calm colours. Safe is the word that springs to mind. Very Peter Jones [the department store in Chelsea] is how I would describe it.”

Dark oak panels, artwork in gold frames, and classic furniture also feature throughout the building.

Although they chose neutral colours for most of the house, the dining room is painted in a jewel green, and the Cambridges liked to add a splash of colour with bold accessories., such as scatter cushions.

When it comes to their kitchen design, it was rumoured they spent £38,000 replacing the original oak units for a contemporary style kitchen with a glass-roofed dining area.

Prior to living at Anmer Hall, Kate Middleton and Prince William spent £12 million renovating their apartment in Kensington Palace. Though much of this went into making sure the foundations were stable and knocking through walls for more spacious rooms, some of the money was also spent highlighting the impressive period features of the property.

These include the cornicing of the entrance hall and its black and white flagstones. Visitors will also pass two 19^th Century Corinthian lamps and a £40,000 Persian rug before they are greeted by the royal couple.

Its drawing room has seen guests like Barack and Michelle Obama in the past, and therefore needs to look presentable and formal. Cream coaches, cushions with floral detailing, a hexagonally shaped coffee table and a grand piano can be found in this reception room, while many of the main rooms boast big windows, window seats and fireplaces. As with Anmer Hall, gold-framed oil paintings, dark wooden doors and plush rugs add a regal touch to the building.

Thanks to the Queen’s platinum jubilee this year and hit TV shows like The Crown and Bridgerton, royal-core is becoming an increasingly popular design trend. This includes checked marble floors for bathrooms or entrance halls, and using deep shades of blue to inject a pop of colour to furnishings.

Other tips highlighted in Wales Online include hanging ornate mirrors, investing in a statement bed, having elaborate window dressings, buying elegant vases, displaying gold ornaments or candelabras to accessorise the rooms; and adding illustrated wallpapers for a sophisticated look.
