In this country-contemporary, two-bedroom apartment, antiques paired with curated African and Asian artwork are rich in colour, pattern and personality.

In the east-facing principal bedroom, morning sunlight beams in through French doors – which open onto a Juliet balcony. A walk-in wardrobe sits behind the four-poster bed, which features an Indian pichwai hanging to the right of the bed with intricate gold-leaf detailing.

Hand-painted walls set the scene in the adjoining en suite bathroom. A contemporary bathtub made from repurposed iroko wood sits against a large window that frames leafy views. In addition to a separate shower, there’s Lefroy Brooks brassware and terracotta floor tiles with underfloor heating. 

There’s an antique iron bed in the guest bedroom, which is served by a separate bathroom finished with handmade Moroccan zellige tiles, nickel brassware and underfloor heating. A Ghanaian Ewe cloth has been repurposed as a distinctive window blind.
