Bold colour, gallery-esque art displays and sophisticated creative design touches abound in this luxury Penthouse in Covent Garden - impeccably styled by our interiors team. 

Designed for a stylish professional couple and their children, this Covent Garden sub-penthouse lofty apartment with an enviable roof terrace, sits within a newly renovated listed building in the heart of the West End. 

When we were tasked with the project, the sub-penthouse had been fitted with a new kitchen and bathrooms (which didn't need many updates) but was completely unfurnished with minimal lighting. The clients set an exciting brief, to turn the light-filled shell into a showstopping London boutique hotel inspired home from home, designed around cocktailing and entertaining, furnished and styled into a dynamic, maximalist interior scheme oozing with character, vibrant tones, pattern and interesting textures. 

Run For The Hills co-founder Anna Burles comments: 

“The client found us through our hospitality work initially and loved our creative, colourful approach to residential design. We came up with a fun and sophisticated scheme that suits working and family life as much as it does entertaining, with a few elements keying into our restaurant and bar design work. The clients will be able to use their London pad as a bolt hole for mid-week work trips, to host guests after dinner and drinks in Soho, and also for family weekends out-and-about exploring the city.”

We sourced all the furniture, accessories, lighting and an apartment-wide 24-piece collection of art, including prints, originals, oils and acrylics and a one-off neon art piece designed by our graphics team.
