“This was an incredible opportunity to
collaborate and associate our Brand
Partnership with Almacantar. Working not
only to bring exceptional Interior Design to
The Show Homes but
coming together to create the launch of
this exciting development. From modernist
furnishings to collectibles sourced from
local artisans, we’ve knitted together a
range of colours, textures and playful
design ideas to deliver an exciting vision for
modern London living.”
Ben Axton, Show Home Sales Director,
Alexander James Interiors
Lyons Place is a collection of 22
apartments, 2 duplex-penthouses and five
three-storey townhouses. The Alexander
James team took one of the sunlight-filled
one-bedroom apartments and created a
contemporary, stylish feel that stands up
admirably to the building’s art-inspired
exterior. A cool palette complements the
sunlight’s strength, with rich bronzes, gold
embellishments and velvet fringes used to
add comfort and warmth. Textures range
from woven fabrics to billowing voiles.
Accent colours, meanwhile, are bold and
punchy.
For Almacantar’s Townhouse Collection at
Lyons Place, the interior design needed to
be bold yet refined, a balance which the
Alexander James team achieved perfectly.
Elements of tranquil water and earthy
history abound, with the strong olive colour
of the hallway, staircase and dining areas
reflecting the leafy pathways of the local
area. Strong metallics and rich timbers add
interest and warmth.
“It was important to embody the greenery
of Maida Vale and Little Venice within the
properties at Lyons Place in order to reflect
the local character and history. Connecting
the homes to art, literature and artisan crafts
was also essential, while maintaining an
uncluttered feel with simple lines in order to
showcase the play of colour and form.”
Laura Leadbetter, Senior Interior Designer,
Alexander James Interiors
The living areas exude relaxation and calm,
while also providing plenty of exciting
touches, such as the handcrafted tubular
wall lamps that sit upon the Lichtensteininspired
multi-coloured wallcovering.
The statement coffee tables, meanwhile,
reference the organic form and design
icons, contributing to the characterful
essence of the Townhouse Collection.
