Somerville House featuring the Arnaldo door pull in Tumbled Brass Finish
Somerville House, realised by Fiona Lynch Office, is an expressive residential interior shaped by bold material decisions and a deliberate sense of drama. Rather than pursuing restraint for its own sake, the project embraces colour, texture and sculptural form to create spaces that feel immersive, characterful and enduring.
Fiona Lynch’s work is driven by a deep engagement with material and mood. Her interiors often draw from art and spatial composition, allowing colour, surface and proportion to work together in ways that feel intentional and emotionally resonant. In Somerville House, this approach results in rooms that are vibrant and layered — where contrast is embraced, and where materials are allowed to assert themselves rather than recede into neutrality.
Arnaldo Door Pull Tumbled Brass
Throughout the home, richness is built through juxtaposition: refined architectural forms set against tactile finishes, moments of visual weight balanced by careful detailing. The result is an interior that feels dynamic and confident, yet grounded in a timeless sensibility that resists trend-driven design.
In the kitchen, a space where material expression is most keenly felt , the Arnaldo Door Pull in Tumbled Brass by Pittella becomes part of the architectural language. Its warm, softly aged surface introduces depth and texture, sitting comfortably within the home’s layered palette while enhancing the sense of crafted detail. The tumbled brass finish offers a subtle patina that complements the vibrancy of the surrounding materials without overpowering them.
