CULTURAL CONNECTION :
INTRODUCING LACE MARKET POINT WITH DAVID PHILLIPS
Located in the beautiful city of Nottingham is Lace Market Point . A landmark development with stylish appeal , this residential project was a fantastic opportunity for leading furnishing provider David Phillips to work alongside Monk Estates on their first Built-to-Rent ( BTR ) project .
With over 90 apartments in the development , David Phillips was commissioned to furnish two show apartments in two different interior design styles . This approach enables prospective tenants to have more of a choice over the interior décor , selecting a scheme that aligns more with their personal style .
The design concepts were inspired by the rich history of Nottingham , with a focus on its lace production and nearby mills , to create unique interiors that offered a subtle nod to the past :
Modern Sophistication
The first aesthetic is based on the narrative of lace . As a refined product , David Phillips selected furniture that had elegant design details and a more feminine quality .
“ Titled modern sophistication , this scheme features a rich terracotta sofa , brass metal accents with warm walnut wood and taupe finishes . Organic rounded shapes are found in the coffee table and armchair to help create a soft , inviting space .” Mark McDonnell , Head of Design at David Phillips
Textured Industrial
The second scheme embraced the industrial heritage of the area , selecting pieces with a bold design aesthetic , strong geometric shape , black metal work and a more masculine colour palette .
“ We named this look textured industrial . Blue and rust were the signature colours in this concept to bring muted pops of colour to the upholstered items . In the bedroom , a modern oak and black finish was used on the furniture , helping to enhance texture and playfulness , whilst still retaining an industrial look and feel .” Mark McDonnell , Head of Design at David Phillips
Full of life , these living spaces feature vibrant accessories that offer a hint of characterful colour , offset perfectly by the more neutral hues to create a calming space , perfect for escaping bustling city life .
In addition to the apartments , this luxurious development benefits from a gym , retail space , meeting room and communal garden . Creating a visual statement , the balconies are wrapped in ornate lace-inspired metal frames for a characterful finishing touch .
