INTERIOR designer Nina Campbell has dec­ orated the lavish homes of royalty, f i lm stars and celebrities, so when she recommends an ashtray as an accessory


it is rather startling. Surely a designer whose


client lis t reads like an extract from "Who's Who" would want guests frog­ marched to th e garden rather than allowing them to sully the b eau tifu l rooms she designs with a


whiff of the weed. But the refreshing thing


about Nina Campbell is that, despite having such illustrious clients as the Duke and Duchess of York, she has a lack of preten­ tiousness and refuses to toe a politically correct line. Her firmly held belief is


th a t a house should be a home full of treasures and memories — and even have the odd whiff of cigarette smoke. She says: "Homes should­

so formal or overdone that people feel intimidated and


ill at ease." Nina Campbell's latest


cause is to open up the intimidating world of interi­ or design to everyone. In her book "Nina Campbell's Decorating Secrets", she reveals her decorating secrets and insider knowl­ edge, so th a t people can


often look at those maga­ zines and are completely put off from trying any­ thing new. All too often when decorating, people rush to the fun bit, like choosing paint colours and fabric swatches and then end up disappointed that the result hasn't quite matched their dream. "That's because there's a


whole layer of important decisions that should take place first, like deciding how rooms will be used and mak­ ing sure the essentials,' such as heating, are right. "If a home is not practical


then it won't be comfort­ able. Comfort should never be sacrificed to achieve a


'look'. "Perhaps you know what

The mistake is to buy everything from the middle-price bracket, as you are likely to feel you have not got the result you really wanted. In her Chelsea home, fea­


tured in the book, rooms are often wallpapered, polished floorboards gleam and there is the squashy comfort of big sofas.

0 Work out an overall plan of what you want to . . .


. , O Colour, especially purples and lilacs, is enjoying a


comeback, but consider how rooms can be linked by it. Using a different colour in each room can jar the eye. • Wallpaper lasts longer than paint and can cover up


imperfect walls. Splash out on one expensive roll, with a distinctive texture or pattern, on one wall, then paint


others to tone.


G Painting a dark room a light colour will not lighten it. Better to choose a strong, dark jewel-like colour that

will create richness and warmth. O Matching everything looks over-contrived. Choose


something just off the main colour you had in mind. O Scale is important when mixing patterns. Mix large


and small patterns, and balance stripes, checks and plaids with more free-form designs.


"It's a difficult look to


achieve successfully arid it can just end up looking cold and sparse. I think people like being surrounded by


their treasured possessions, maybe collected from child­ hood or travels. They give colour, life and personality to a room," she says.
