CALA Homes Press Release

THE VIBRANCY OF ART DECO

May 2 2008

THE ELEGANCE AND EDGE OF CONTEMPORARY DESIGN

CALA’s New Showhome at Hopefield Has It All

 

 

CALA has opened a stunning Carlton showhome designed by Amabile Design at the award-winning developer’s Hopefield development in pretty Midlothian just outside Edinburgh.

 

To celebrate, CALA is currently offering a superb incentive of £10,000 cashback or 100% part exchange on selected homes at Hopefield for early entry. With properties priced from an exceptional £175,000, it’s a great time to visit the new showhome.

 

The four bedroom semi-detached Carlton is from CALA’s exciting new Capital Collection of housetypes which have been designed to bring in lots of natural light and boast bright, spacious and eminently flexible interiors designed for modern living. The sumptuous showhome interior combines the boldness and vibrancy of Art Deco, another era famed for striking design, with the elegance and style of contemporary textures and colours.

 

Sarah Stanger, Sales and Marketing Director at CALA, explains:

“There’s a tremendous choice of competitively priced homes at Hopefield and all benefit from the excellent semi-rural location which is so close to Edinburgh. Such a special development demands a showhome with an extraordinary interior design. John Amabile and his business partner Carol Yates have created a wonderfully elegant and stylish home which brings the potential of the stunning modern homes at Hopefield to life.”

 

Carol Yates of Amabile Design adds:

“The Carlton is a very spacious, well designed contemporary home with lots of natural light and flexibility. This means it is perfect for a strong design statement whilst it can as easily look its best with a subtler look. We have given each room a slightly different character so that visitors can see the real beauty of this home and how their own tastes might be reflected in it.”

 

The large dining and living room, which extends the width of the property and opens onto decking in the rear garden, and the master bedroom truly boast the wow factor.

 

With its rich palette of black, silver and ochre, striking L-shaped sofa and two well-placed black feature walls, the living room gives a brief nod to Art Deco whilst feature mirrors adding further depth and space to an already generously proportioned room and sculptural furniture give it a contemporary twist.

 

The master bedroom is inspired by Hollywood glamour. From the old fashioned trunks of yesteryear, here updated with mirrors and black leather inserts, extravagant mirrored headboard, satin bed throws and sumptuous silk curtains to the colour palette of dark chocolate, black, metallics and toffee, this room oozes with sheer indulgence.  

 

Then there’s the delightfully uplifting second bedroom with its bright acidic green accents, lacquered furniture and fuchsia floral print curtains and the cooler pace of the third bedroom with its soothing aqua and white Mediterranean colours and eye-catching transparent ‘Louis’ ‘Ghost’ chair. Or, the fourth bedroom or study, here decked out with a black and chrome Le Corbusier sofa, candy pink walls and funky pink Andy Warhol prints of Marilyn Monroe.

 

Altogether, the new Carlton showhome is a bold and exciting homage to the excellent design available at Hopefield.

 

In addition to the exceptional four and five bedroom detached and semi-detached homes from CALA's new Capital Collection, there are chic two bedroom mews, four bedroom townhouses or stylish one and two bedroom apartments available at Hopefield and all benefit from CALA’s superb specification.

Within excellent commuting distance of Edinburgh and set amidst scenic countryside, Hopefield near Bonnyrigg is ideally located. Indeed, for those who love the great outdoors, there are lots of opportunities for walking, cycling and golf as well as Vogrie Country Park and Midlothian Snowsports Centre.

 

Altogether, for those looking for a great quality of life with the buzz of the capital close by, Hopefield is perfect.
