Period interior redecoration in Aberystwyth — The Villas

The brief

The work at The Villas, Aberystwyth, covered the staircase, landing and adjoining interiors within the wider Old College restoration project. Existing wall surfaces and repairs needed preparation before the navy scheme and pale architectural details could be finished.

What was done

  • Prepare and fill the existing wall surfaces.
  • Decorate the staircase, arched stair area and landing.
  • Redecorate the room with the fireplace.
  • Finish around the mouldings and other architectural details.

Working with the period details

The arches, mouldings and fireplace were part of the existing interiors. Preparation and finishing had to follow these details carefully. I carried out the decorating within contractor teams on the wider restoration; The Villas are shown separately from the main Old College building.

The result

The finished navy walls sit alongside pale arches and mouldings, making the shapes of the staircase and landing clear. The same approach continues into the adjoining room and around the smaller architectural details.
