Film critic Roger Ebert encapsulates the success of the film Saltburn by subverting conventional expectations of societal norms. With a unique perspective, the movie challenges preconceived notions and scrutinizes an exclusive world, revealing the authentic aspects of human nature—its inclination towards transactions and the interplay between desire and disposability.

If you enjoyed the movie, here are ways you can get the trending “Old Money” (also known as “quiet luxury”) interiors. This type of design refers to the sartorial preferences typically associated with the old money set and interior designers love this quiet luxury look for its timeless elegance, simplicity, and neutral appeal.

Award-winning studio, Black&Milk has recently been working on a variety of interiors that showcase this ‘'stealth wealth' style and their recent project unveil, Talbot Residence, is a clear example of how to channel this trend.

Situated in Highgate, this Edwardian residence stands out as a captivating narrative within the portfolio of the design project. The primary focus was to integrate the distinct personality of the Scottish family into every facet of the home, aligning the new design harmoniously with the existing framework. The design was aimed to tailor the property to the family's lifestyle, creating a cohesive and personalized living space.

Property USPs include:
The introduction of 'His' and 'Her' lounges
The moody blue hues of the Gentleman lounge set as a perfect backdrop for evoking the grandeur of a cigar lounge, with more playful, expressive touches. On the other hand, the Ladies Lounge is a serene oasis that provides the perfect hang out for coffee dates and socials.

Country style kitchen
A bespoke kitchen, island, and hidden breakfast area designed by Black and Milk incorporate richer materials to add a layer of warmth to the family's open-plan dining area. To keep the design cohesive with the front of the house, traditional backsplash tiles were implemented to the modern design of the kitchen. An impressive golf leaf-based table anchors the centre of the dining area with a soft, napkin-like pendant sits a top, softening the overall look and feel.

A Cinema Room
Hidden away within the lounge area, sits a cinema room. The walls were draped and upholstered in Tartan fabric panelling to provide sound installation and pay heritage to the client's Scottish roots.
