This South Kensington flat, embracing a minimalist Scandinavian style, underwent a contemporary refurbishment while preserving original period features. Nestled in the tranquility of Bina Gardens, the two-bedroom space boasts bay windows offering serene garden views.
Responding to the client's desire for a timeless and balanced design, the interiors draw inspiration from charming period elements, including a beautiful marble fireplace surround. The palette, emphasizing simplicity, utilizes matte finishes and subtle textures for a calm and warm ambiance. Vertical wood battens add depth without introducing additional materials, while a redesigned lighting scheme creates a layered, warm atmosphere.
To enhance the grandeur of the high ceilings, standard doors were raised throughout, imparting an open and illuminated feel. Thoughtful bespoke joinery includes bookshelves and a cozy reading nook integrated into the master wardrobe.
Completing the vision, a comprehensive furniture and accessories package, including curtains, features natural materials and textured fabrics, infusing warmth and softness. The finished flat, showcased in Open House London, harmoniously blends contemporary aesthetics with the allure of its historic setting.
