The Pink House in the Evening Standard

It's an odd feeling, standing on the Tube, watching people stare at your kitchen and read you being quoted as saying, "It was important to me that my kitchen didn't look like a kitchen."

But strange as it was, having my home featured in a classic London publication feels like a real milestone. It's nearly exactly one year since me and my family moved from Edinburgh - and a house I'd just finished renovating - to a new house that was begging for the same de-beiging treatment. 

I'm so happy to be back in London, and I'm delighted with how my new home is turning out. Thanks to photographer Gavin Smith and journalist Susan Springate for helping me share my home's story with my fellow Londoners.
