A Calm Color Palette and Warm Materials in a London Home

On a quiet street in North London stands this beautifully renovated house that is decorated in a muted color palette and warm materials. The five-bedroom house unfolds over three stories and features a large open living kitchen at the back and a warm master loft bedroom on the top floor.

The historic house is beautifully renovated; original elements such as moldings, fireplaces, and bay windows have been preserved, which are paired with stylish contemporary furnishings and stylish materials.
