IN SUMMARY
WE ARE MOVING CLOSER TO MAKING FINAL DECISIONS AS TO THE AGREED INTERIOR DESIGN OF MITRE HOUSE BASED ON THE VARIOUS IDEAS & SUGGESTIONS FROM SOME LEASEHOLDERS TO DATE
THERE ARE NOW TWO NOTABLE BUT REGRETTABLY TOTALLY DISPARATE SUGGESTIONS TO DATE AS TO THE FINAL LOOK OF THE COMMUNAL AREAS
THE FIRST (PREFERENCE A) BEING TO FOLLOW THE MORE TRADITIONAL MANSION BLOCK INTERIOR UTILISING THE MORE CONSERVATIVE ELEGANCE IN KEEPING WITH OTHER CLASSICAL NEIGHBOURING INTERIORS
THE SECOND SUGGESTION (PREFERENCE LA BELLE EPOQUE), FOLLOWS MORE SYMPATHETICALLY THE FEW, VERY ATTRACTIVE, ART DECO/ART NOUVEAU POST EDWARDIAN ARTEFACTS FOUND WITHIN MITRE HOUSE WITH A WARMER DECOR MORE IN KEEPING WITH THE CLASSIC CHELSEA BOHEMIA OF C1920
EXAMPLES & REFERENCES TO BOTH CONCEPTS ARE OUTLINED IN DETAIL ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES TO HELP FURTHER THE FINAL DECISION AS TO WHICH CONCEPT FINDS A MAJORITY PREFERENCE
...AND FINALLY, VARIOUS OTHER IMPROVEMENTS FOR FINAL CONSIDERATION

The Interior examples above are just that, examples of the two differing
style suggestions to date and are included simply to differentiate the two concepts.
