This London penthouse has transformed the city view into a decorative element in its own right
This London penthouse, featuring a 3-meter-wide glass facade, plays on contrasts: wooden beams, exposed light bulbs, and a view of the skyline
In the West Kensington neighborhood, this top-floor London penthouse takes the design concept to the extreme. With its fully glazed facade and private terraces, this apartment is unlike anything else in the British capital.
It all starts with the windows. Three-meter-high glass panels span the entire width of the main room. They frame the London skyline like a painting that lights up at nightfall. The furniture features clean, contemporary lines, but the yellow makes it pop. The decoration is modern but welcoming and warm.
Wooden beams span the living room space and line the double-height ceiling. Bare light bulbs hang from them at irregular intervals. This industrial detail contrasts with the room’s modern lines. The kitchen-dining area follows the same design philosophy. The space opens onto the living room and matches it in style and color. Light wood flooring runs throughout all the rooms
Each double bedroom has its own private terrace. This way, everyone can enjoy a slice of the sky in complete privacy. At night, the city lights replace the daytime view. The atmosphere shifts completely.
The bathrooms are understated, with a green hue that contrasts with the yellow of the living room. This shade is echoed in the bedrooms and the dining chairs. These are simple, contemporary, and well-equipped spaces.
This London penthouse is not defined by its materials or furnishings alone. It is the relationship between the interior and the city that makes all the difference. The large floor-to-ceiling windows blur the line between inside and outside. London flows into the living room, which hovers above the rooftops.
