A Grade II listed Townhouse in the scenic setting of Little Venice that perfectly harmonises contemporary with Grade II listed features.

The brief for Lawson Robb was to blend the heritage of the building with contemporary features and detailing. Throughout the property everything was bespoke and tailored to the client’s exacting requirement: from the mouldings to the fireplaces, installations of the joinery to the furniture, and the integration of the back of house systems. This refined approach was subtly juxtaposed with the artwork, an element which really enabled the client’s personality to shine through and create that final flourish to the scheme.

For designer George Wolstenholme, the marriage of contemporary interior design within a Grade II listed backdrop was his favourite aspect of the project. Many skilled specialist artisans were used throughout the property, from the bespoke joinery, ironmongery, furniture to the bespoke pattern within the flooring. 90% of the design in this project is bespoke to suit client’s way of life. The design highlights the original features of the property, whilst using integrated technology to make it sure it sits perfectly into the modern way of life.

The large traditional windows bring in beautiful light to the property, highlighting the sophisticated design and connecting the property to the charm of Little Venice.
