Redesign and renovation of a Notting Hill Townhouse

An exceptional home for a couple of collectors in Holland Park.

This top-to-bottom refurbishment and full interior design of a townhouse in Notting Hill is an example of Studio 29’s multi-disciplinary approach, combining architectural, interior and garden design.

This project in Notting Hill required several structural interventions to implement the new layout design. All the missing Victorian features were replaced and the services were renovated, with a new heat pump to replace the old gas boiler. Then followed the interior design, landscaping and lighting design and colour scheme. The construction phase was an orchestrated labour of love between the clients, the contractors and their team of specialists, and many artists and artisans who designed and manufactured custom pieces for the house.

All the furniture - except for a few antiques that had been in our clients’ families for years - was selected by Studio 29, as were the decorative light fittings. By mixing modern pieces with the clients’ art collection and their family heirlooms, we achieved a personal and original style , “as though no interior designer had been involved” - as a friend of the family commented.

This project has been featured in both national and local press. House and Garden included it in an issue dedicated to “Five exceptional houses” - where it also made the front cover. The Resident London Magazine described it as rich in “fresh ideas that sit seamlessly within the period property, eeking out the building’s potential and providing a design narrative that spans decades”. Studio 29 recently completed the Norfolk holiday home with the same clients.
