Luxurious Central London Pied-à-Terre

Park Modern, London

An Uncompromisingly Luxurious Central London Apartment

An uncompromisingly luxurious central London apartment, full of cohesive design, abundant light, and a sense of serenity.

A high-luxe home sitting above the chaos of central London, Park Modern with its views of an iconic park, sophisticated style touches, bountiful light and high-end facilities, including a swimming pool, gym, spa and concierge, channels an upper-east side apartment aesthetic, a real gem and a rarity for London.

The ultimate pied-à-terre that doesn’t compromise on elegant style and opulent finishings, this is a dynamic, high-spec haven, and a richly designed refuge from London life, with views over Kensington Gardens, the home of a royal residence, to boot.

From stellar light work to plush, bespoke soft furnishings and sophisticated joinery, it is clear that this bijou flat has been maximised to a full and aesthetically pleasing effect, remaining light, and airy with a highly relaxed atmosphere.

A Gateway to Luxury

Enter the hallway, and you’ll be greeted with welcoming organic/earthy, pale golds, very light browns and creams, giving you the first, enticing glimpse of the ambience of quiet luxury to be found within.

Warm light bounces and reflects throughout this essential first space, offering a first, tempting view of the cool yet inviting mood of the property – a firm handshake that announces your arrival.

Mixed metal touches, such as the antique brass blocks found around the mirror as you enter and the dusky bronze frame of the priory console table below it, gently mix up the dominant softer textures of the hallway, creating a sense of style, variety and excitement.

A Living Room for Every Occasion

The living room channels an enticing and contemporary comfort mix, making it a space where one could easily entertain others with a cocktail, or curl up with a book in a state of blissful solitude.

The colour scheme comprises rich beige, light gold, sand and off-white, which are easy on the eye, yet luscious with tonal depth, and notes of luxury are never far away. Intelligently engineered lighting makes the compact space as open and airy as possible. Indirect bespoke lighting integrated into the joinery radiates the light.

Custom joinery envelops the fireplace and shelving, giving off a personal, authentic feel. Sentimental items including picture frames, cherished coffee table books, and a bar invites conversation and social interaction. A contained yet chic space within which to entertain and live in.

Plush fabrics, including a mid-olive armchair and platinum rug, stabilise the mood of the living area, making it comfortable as well as aesthetically alluring. Natural tones and materials evoke a sense of homeliness and warmth. Other touches, such as a bespoke L-shape sofa and a grey velvet cushion with a textured pattern ground the space in luxurious comfort and a sense of relaxation.

A Kitchen Balancing Innovative Interiors with Everyday Ease

The kitchen continues the high-luxe aesthetic with three reeded glass and brass flume lights, bathing the space in vertical light. Yet, the breakfast bar complete with bar stools keeps the space functional and delightfully informal, where you can sit and enjoy a coffee before the hustle and bustle of London life begins. A seating area that suits a design-led pied-a-terre perfectly.

A View of Kensington Gardens

The bedroom acts as a refuge within a refuge; with views overlooking leafy Kensington Gardens. The luxuriously neutral colour tones, including muted golds and softer beiges, complement the vista of the park, including the tops of trees which are glimpsed through the windows, bringing them into the space. This creates a tranquil setting, a pleasant surprise for a property right in the centre of London.

The middle wall panelling behind the bed features indirect lighting and wallpaper, adding richness and character while maximising the space, which is crucial in this more intimate, more minimalist space.

Zen & Elegance

Indirect and reflective light continues in the bathroom, around the mirror above the sink and under the shower screen, illuminating otherwise dark and shadowed spaces, helping to further enhance stunning stylistic touches.

Natural tones take centre stage with large format ceramic tiles, channelling the earthy and spa-like experience within the bathroom. The floor, sink, and shower setting grounds the area in a state of zen, ideal for a space of personal renewal and refreshment. The storage area beneath the sink is pleasantly textured, creating a subtle focal point, while stylish metal taps above the sink emphasise the luxe nature of the room.

Clever, curated, compact, Park Modern is all these things and more, a dreamed-of getaway from London life which is perfectly practical, yet elegant enough to entertain lavishly.
