The Sound of Silence
You’ve worked hard, taken a few risks, and earned a bit of money that has gone into buying a decent home. Now, naturally, you want to make it your own, tailored around you. The dream is the easy part, getting it right is another thing.
In the case of this Hyde Park property, the client enjoys great success in the entertainment world. Whilst showcasing the intelligence and sophistication behind the exuberance, I was compelled to reflect his stage personality in his home. With Elle Decoration describing this interior as ‘high octane,’ it is clear the approach worked. But do take another look – this is no wow-factor palace. Every detail is considered, discussed in-depth and built by dedicated craftsmen. We’ve tinkered with tradition, toyed with the present, experimented and invented. Why? Because we could.
From being commissioned to handing the keys back, the house was completely shelled and rebuilt, with the basement lowered for more head height. The process took one year, and we are thrilled with the result.
