Rosie’s designer radiator makeover
Everyone does cosy in their own way and Rosie from @home_sweet_home_46 does it beautifully. Combining a sumptuous collection on soft textures and floral arrangements, Rosie has created a dreamy space that manages to be stylish yet relaxed and cosy.
We love how Rosie uses velvet and mirrored furniture to create a touch of glamour whilst keeping the colour scheme calm, grey and modern. Topping it off with gorgeous blush pink accents for a nod to her sweet jar obsession.
When Rosie was drawn to the Milano Alpha radiators it did not come as a surprise to us. These modern rads complement this boudoir style interior perfectly. Featuring a sleek design with contemporary flat panels, the Alpha rads are real beauties.
The flat panel design works perfectly under this beautiful mirrored wall and creates a more streamlined look compared to the slightly bulky convector radiators.
“I absolutely love the radiators! Normally I would cover my radiators up because they look ugly. But my new radiators look fab! They’re so modern and they heat my house up much quicker than the originals.”
Designer radiators – Turn function into features
Rosie isn’t on her own when it comes to covering up old radiators. Whether it’s with a shelf or a full-on cover. But since we have so many radiators in our homes that you have to look at daily, why not turn them into features that you love?
You might even find removing your radiator disguise as a good opportunity to declutter. Did you even really want the things on the shelf or were they just there to make looking at the rad a bit easier?
We love how the new radiator has become part of Rosie’s décor. Instead of hiding it away or forgetting about it, it has transformed this gorgeous corner.
The bright finish keeps the corner looking light and bright, combined with the slim modern design, these radiators complement Rosie’s soft feminine style beautifully.
The minimalist look also lends itself perfectly to Scandinavian inspired interiors with simple beauty and effortless less is more feel.
Rosie chose modern chrome TRV valves to complete her radiator makeover.
The clean white finish is a winner for any interior colour palette, but it looks so right in Rosie’s monochrome hallway. By removing the shelf, the space also feels more open, creating a beautiful warm welcome to her home.
The Alpha range manages to throw out some serious heat without having a bulky not so pretty build. With a choice of horizontal and vertical options in black, white, anthracite, and chrome these designer radiators are hard to beat.
You’ll find that the Alpha rads have a similar streamlined appearance to our Capri collection. The real difference is the style of the panels. The Alpha rads have a slightly wider gap between each panel and a smooth curve on each corner.
Now for some pin-worthy living room inspo. The Alpha peeping out in the corner blends seamlessly with the contemporary TV unit and adds to the bright fresh look. The soft colour palette is calm and relaxed, perfect for a cosy living space.
Thank you, Rosie, for sharing your beautiful photos. It is a pleasure to be heating your home! For more gorgeous home inspiration head over to @home_sweet_home_46.
