Urbane interiors. Awe-inspiring design features. This three-bedroom apartment in Marylebone is a celebration of materiality.
Set within a redbrick mansion block, style and sophistication play out across this considered metropolitan home. High ceilings, generous windows and an unrestrained palette of materials create a sense of opulence. Enlivening the space, interior design by Galina Nalimova pulls on contemporary influences while honouring the apartment’s Edwardian setting.
Dark marble transitions to hardwood flooring upon entering the open-plan reception and dining room. Sunlight imbues the space with an uplifting feel. Elegant wood panelling and colourful artwork adorn the walls, creating an eye-catching contrast. Suspended like clouds, natural crystal chandeliers hang above a generous walnut table with seating for eight. Catering is easy with Miele appliances and stone worktops – hallmarks of the home’s separate kitchen, fully equipped with Riedel glassware and Villeroy & Boch cutlery.
Considered furnishings create a sense of comfort in the living area while prized artworks cultivate curiosity. Grounded by a Chesneys fireplace finished in Emperador marble, this refined retreat combines plush furnishings, French fabrics and a convivial layout. Crowned by a cascade chandelier, it’s an ideal space for entertaining and replete with talking points – including original Picasso lithographs.
On lazy afternoons, browse the affectionately curated collection of fashion books. Flick through your chosen tomb, illuminated by the vast south-facing bay window, from the comfort of a bespoke Theodore Alexander sofa. On busier days, while away logged-in hours from the comfort of a design-led office.
Subtly defined by their accent colours, three bedrooms are optimised for comfort and served by three bathrooms finished in marble, granite and onyx. The golden principal bedroom suite enjoys a warming, inviting atmosphere, spacious footprint and a stylish en suite with a freestanding bathtub and walk-in rainfall shower. Characterised by plush carpet, fitted wardrobes and goose-down bedding, the silver and blue bedrooms feature calming tones and exquisite design details.
