Be inspired by a stylish Victorian home in west London

Modern living

A four-storey Victorian terraced house in West London with a kitchen-diner, utility room, home cinema and WC on the lower-ground floor. On the ground floor is a living room and on the first floor there are 2 guest bedrooms and a bathroom. The top floor houses the master bedroom suite, with an office area and roof terrace on the mezzanine above.

The living wall in the garden brings a taste of tropics to city living – it’s designed to stay green and verdant all year around.

The living wall was installed by Ans, and the sofas are by Gloster at The Chelsea Gardener.

Living room

The owners wanted a traditional living room, so chose classic furniture and a homely fireplace. The purple velvet footstool adds a retro 60s influence to this space.

For a similar footstool, try DePadova.

Living room seating

The glass-sided void allows light to flow down to the kitchen underneath. The owner wanted every room to be connected but distinct, each with a different feel and purpose behind it.

The chairs are from The Old Cinema. The pendant light is from Chelsea Lighting Design.

Kitchen-diner

The Bulthaup storage system creates a multifunctional space that when opened up becomes a working kitchen. When it is closed it's discreet and the room goes back to being an entertaining space - this was chosen to continue the idea of fluidity and spaciousness..

The kitchen cupboard, shelving system and workbench are from Bulthaup.

Hallway

The hallway brilliantly mixes the traditional, modern and quirky. The parquet flooring and runner give a timeless feel, but are offset by ultra-stylish pendants and a rococo mirror for an eclectic blend.

The pendant light is by Foscarini.

Master bedroom

The fluid lines and icy-white hue of the spiral staircase make a stunning feature in the bedroom. The stairs lead up to an office and roof terrace.

The floor lamp is from The Conran Shop.

Bathroom

This freestanding bath is the focal point of the bedroom suite. The white chair is typical of the owners twist-on-a-classic style.

The bath is from Svedbergs, and the armchair is from Chaplins.

Washroom

Even the smallest of spaces is filled with the unexpected. The bookshelf wallpaper forces you to take a second look.

The wallpaper is from Bodie And Fou, and the basin is from CP Hart.
