1 room flat of 318m² in London

A period framework reimagined with contemporary cool. Set on a quintessential Notting Hill street, this one-bedroom apartment has been thoughtfully redesigned by creative Chris Schuster. The reception space establishes the home’s expressive but understated palette: a crisp white backdrop becomes a canvas for abstract artwork, flashes of colour and tactile layering. The layout naturally defines two zones – a marble fireplace with a working gas fire anchors the lounge, while a travertine dining table offers intimate seating for two. In the separate Smallbone kitchen, rich green cabinetry wraps one wall with precision. A black countertop, integrated appliances and a Miele oven keep the space streamlined and functional. The bedroom adopts a more pared-back mood, calm in soft neutrals and clean lines. Storage is cleverly built in – bespoke wardrobes framing the entrance and wall-mounted side tables that free up floor space. The family bathroom continues the refined tone, dressed in Walton Ceramics tiles and finished with a bathtub and overhead shower.
