Creating a home that felt luxurious
whilst practical was one of the main
influences behind the interior design of
the penthouse; Weston Homes asked OS
Designs to create a residence with the feel
and appeal of a sumptuous 7* hotel, but
with the comfort and personal touches of a
real home. With the development’s overall
style being hotel-like in aesthetic and
amenities (it has a hotel-style lobby with
concierge, in-house café and bar, residents’
only gymnasium), OS Designs was keen
to ensure that this feeling of subtle luxury
was upheld in the penthouse. For this, they
drew inspiration from hotels including the
Armani Milan Hotel.
Particular attention was to be paid, at
the request of Weston Homes, to the
outside spaces and terraces that make
up the property’s offering. The Platinum
Penthouse boasts some of the most
extensive outdoor leisure spaces of any
East London development including a
central terrace and six further balconies
– all of which offer spectacular views of
Canary Wharf, the City of London, Stratford
City and West Ham Football Stadium. It is
the central terrace, which measures a grand
750 sq. ft. (70m2) that is the show-stopper
within The Platinum Penthouse.
