YOUR HOME, STYLED TO PERFECTION: THE COTTON MILLS APPROACH TO FINISHING TOUCHES
There’s a moment in every home project when the foundations are set, the furniture is in place, and yet something still feels missing. It’s that final layer, the artful placement of objects, the thoughtful styling that transforms a space from ‘done’ to effortlessly beautiful. It’s what makes a home feel complete.
At Cotton Mills, we understand the magic of those finishing touches - the soft glow of a perfectly placed lamp, the harmony of layered textures, the way carefully chosen accessories can bring a space to life. That’s why we created Style & Shoot - a service designed to elevate your interiors, refine your home’s aesthetic, and ensure every detail is just right.
Whether you’re settling into your dream home, preparing a property for sale, or styling a holiday retreat, Style & Shoot brings together expert interior styling with professional photography to create spaces that feel as good as they look.
Bringing a space to life: The Style & Shoot process
Every home has a story to tell, and our job is to bring that story into focus. Here’s how we do it:
1. Let’s chat
The first step is a complimentary discovery call to understand your space, your needs, and how we can help. Whether you’re looking to refine your own interiors or style a property for guests or buyers, we’ll discuss how Style & Shoot can bring everything together.
2. Defining your style
Before we dive into the details, we’ll send over a styling questionnaire to get a clear picture of your aesthetic, your existing décor, and the missing pieces that will complete the look. This helps us tailor a plan that feels authentic to you.
3. The plan comes to life
With your vision in mind, we’ll create a bespoke shopping list featuring carefully curated accessories, soft furnishings, and key styling pieces. Every selection is designed to seamlessly blend with your home, enhancing what’s already there while introducing those all-important finishing elements.
You’ll also gain access to our exclusive Studio & Style collection, where you can source timeless homewares that elevate your space with ease.
4. The Style & Shoot day
This is where the magic happens! Jessica, our Senior Interior Designer, and our photographer will visit your home to style each room with precision and artistry. Using a mix of your existing pieces and newly curated selections, we’ll refine layouts, arrange accessories, and create a space that feels polished yet inviting.
Every item is placed with thoughtful intention, ensuring that your home feels cohesive, elegant, and effortlessly stylish.
5. The finishing touches: Photos & styling guidebook
Once your space has been beautifully styled, we’ll capture it in a professional photoshoot, delivering a set of 15-20 beautifully edited images that you can treasure. Whether it’s for personal memories, marketing a holiday home, or selling a property, these images will showcase your home at its absolute best.
And to help you maintain the magic long after we leave, we’ll provide a personalised styling guidebook packed with expert tips, tricks, and recommendations to keep your interiors looking refined and beautifully curated.
