Kirsten & Joerg: 2 Germans in Britain

About

We're two Germans living in the UK, sharing our love for British cottages, countryside charm and timeless interiors. On this channel, we take you on deeply atmospheric tours through some of the most beautiful holiday cottages and historic homes across England, Scotland and Wales - always with an eye for colour, texture and detail. We speak English (with a British accent!) and share not only the interiors but also the paint colours, wallpapers and fabrics used - so you can recreate the look. Beyond that we show you our own Victorian home renovations, bake German and British cakes, explore the prettiest villages and occasionally film with British designers and business owners in their own inspiring homes. Whether you're here for escapism, interiors or countryside inspiration - you're very welcome. 🎥 New video every week. 📍 Filming across the UK – from Cornish cottages to Scottish hideaways. 💌 Business & collaborations: [email protected]

Video Description

Step inside a colorful British interior design studio in the heart of the Cotswolds. Today we’re meeting interior designer Sean Symington, who takes us through his creative process, design philosophy, and the inspiration behind his bold use of colour, pattern, and antiques. Sean shares how he came from Canada to England, built his design studio in Tetbury, and why his spaces always feel like a real home. We’ll look at moodboards, fabrics, and projects in progress – and yes, you’ll also meet his sweet “office manager”, Penny the dog. Afterwards, we head out into Tetbury, one of the Cotswolds’ best towns for antiques. Sean gives us his tips on browsing antique shops and mixing high-end pieces with unexpected finds. We’ll also show you a couple of treasures we discovered ourselves. If you love British interiors, colourful design, and the timeless charm of the Cotswolds, this video is for you. _____ SEAN SYMINGTON: https://seansymington.com LORFORDS ANTIQUES: https://www.lorfordsantiques.com TOP BANANA ANTIQUES: https://topbananaantiques.com _____ CONTENTS OF THIS VIDEO: 00:00 Intro 00:46 Meeting Sean Symington in his Tetbury studio 03:07 Design philosophy & client process 06:34 Fabrics & schemes 10:02 Sean's background & hoe he became an interior designer 11:05 Sean's gallery wall & personal touches in the studio 12:01 Mood boards, fabrics & favourite colours 16:43 Sean's charming courtyard 17:36 Designing small spaces beautifully 22:37 How Sean gets inspired 23:24 Antique browsing in Tetbury - with Sean's tips 37:02 Outro _____ MUSIC: The music in our videos is from Musicbed, Epidemic Sound & Artlist, royalty free music sharing sites which you have to pay a monthly fee to be able to access: https://www.musicbed.com, https://www.epidemicsound.com/ & https://artlist.io/ _____ ✨ Our videos are made with love.
