A striking black-and-white striped feature wallpaper was the starting point for Jenny's living room. The mid-century furniture complements the age of her flat.

2/10 TV area
Jenny's white high-gloss wall unit in her living room came from Ikea and makes a neat spot to house the TV. The wooden chair by the window is the ideal spot to relax with a good book.

3/10 Grey hallway
The smart grey walls in Jenny's hallway add a modern twist to retro-style parquet flooring. The eye is immediately drawn through to the striped wall in the living room, while a bright-yellow table lamp offers a splash of colour.

4/10 White kitchen with wooden worktops
Jenny chose handleless white high-gloss kitchen units for a streamlined look. They're topped with solid-oak worksurfaces – a clever way to make a budget kitchen look more expensive. The pared-back white mosaic wall tiles allow the vibrant yellow accessories to pop.

5/10 Blackboard wall
If, like Jenny, you're lost without reminders and lists, a blackboard wall is a practical and stylish solution. This one spans an entire wall in her kitchen. The drop-leaf table in front is a great space-saver if your room is compact.

Yellow is Jenny's favourite colour and is scattered around her home, including her son's bedroom. White walls and cube shelving keep the style simple.

7/10 Neutral bedroom with blue feature wall
Jenny's bedroom differs from the rest of the flat thanks to a peacock-blue feature wall. The quirky cluster light is a real talking point, while a gold-framed mirror and a Kartell table lamp add a touch of glam to this space.

8/10 Blue mirror and gold and blue accessories
The blue and gold theme continues in Jenny's bedroom. She painted this Rococo-style mirror the same shade as her feature wall, while the hand and stag ornaments reflect her eclectic style.

9/10 White and wood bathroom
Jenny's dark-wood vanity unit in her bathroom was an eBay find – she simply added a countertop basin and a modern mixer tap. Striped towels lift this unfussy scheme.

10/10 1970s flat
Jenny saw past the uninspiring exterior of her ex-council flat and got more space for her money. She used the 1970s design as inspiration for the interior decor.
