Knightsbridge, London (5177 sq /ft)

This townhouse benefits from having classical proportions but with a contemporary aesthetic – especially in the two-storey extension at the back which is made almost entirely from glass.

In terms of palette there’s a rich depth of tonality across the home – from dark wood in the parquet floors and black or grey marble in the bathrooms. However there is a playfulness which runs through the property. From rare antiquities to vintage film posters or vivid patterns on rugs or chairs – there’s a rich visual landscape in every room.

With a gym and a games room, this is the perfect home for work, rest and play.
