MCHUCLA: Georgian House 2 by Tim Campbell and Philip Nimmo

Here is another of the 10 custom dollhouses featured in the Designer Dollhouse Showcase at the Kaleidocsope Ball that helped to raise almost $1.8 million for UCLA Mattel Children's Discovery and Innovation Institute. This is the Georgian House 2 by Tim Campbell and Philip Nimmo. Click on the images to enlarge.


Tim Campbell designed the first floor and exterior to have a transitional and modern look. The design uses a color scheme of creams and blues for a fresh look. Credits go to Soane Britain, Merida Meridian, and Canyon Interior for their contributions to the design.

Philip Nimmo designed the second floor to include a two room “gentleman’s lair”. In one room, a daybed floats in the center of the room behind a big agate-and-polished-brass coffee table flanked by 2 chairs. The second room is the lair itself, where a man would preoccupy himself with intellectual pursuits, his collections of art and objects found during his travels, and all of the curiosities that a 21st century Renaissance man desires. These eclectic furnishing and a high-contrast palette create a warm and inviting environment. The Gentlemen's Lair features ebonized floors with dark shades of gray furnishings paired with cream upholstery. Credits go to Cowtan & Tout, Larsen, Sandra Jordan, Phillip Jeffries, Larriane's Small Wonders, Kneedler Fauchere, Jean de Merry, Philip Nimmo (Furniture), Bespoke Furniture, and Roman Raygoza Fine Furnishings for their contributions to the design.

I have one word for this house - LUXE. The herringbone wood floors are gorgeous. And those stairs, so grand! I envy dollhouses with enough room for stairs that massive, as my little modern abodes just can't give up the squre footage for such a grandious enterance. The lush fabrics, dark furniture, gold and brass accents create a rich, luxurious decor. The designers collaborated their styles to work really well together in this house. Below are more exterior and zoomed out shots.
