Earthy, Layered Interiors in a Notting Hill Apartment

Set in one of Notting Hill’s elegant stucco-fronted crescents, this two-bedroom apartment pairs classic London architecture with an interior that feels warm, collected, and personal.

Occupying a corner position on the second floor of a building on Stanley Crescent, the home sits high enough to look out across the surrounding treetops, with tall windows bringing plenty of natural light into the rooms.

Inside, the atmosphere is earthy and layered, with a mix of bespoke details, vintage-inspired furniture, natural materials, and objects that hint at long travels.

Rather than following one decorating style, the interiors have evolved into something eclectic yet considered.

At the heart of the apartment are the adjoining living and dining rooms, connected by a softly curved plaster archway.

The sitting room is a calm haven, with walls finished in a chalky, sun-warmed limewash that provides a subtle backdrop for the brown-toned furnishings, including a deep corner sofa and Eames chairs set on a patterned rug.

Three tall sash windows flood the room with daylight and offer wonderful views of the trees outside.

Through the archway, the dining room features a bolder interior style, with a hand-painted jungle mural stretching across one wall.

A round dining table stands in the center of the room, surrounded by wicker chairs and lighted by woven rattan pendants that add texture.

I love the series of arched candle niches in one wall. It must look wonderful in the evening when the candles are lit.

The kitchen is decorated in a lighter palette, featuring cabinetry in soft clay tones paired with a marble countertop and splashback, integrated appliances, and a shelf above the counterspace for glassware and stoneware.

At the back of the room, under the large windows, a breakfast area has been created featuring cushioned banquettes on either side with views of the surrounding neighborhood.

The apartment has two bedrooms. The master suite continues the earth-toned interiors seen in the main living spaces.

The highlight of this room is the bespoke fitted wardrobes with patterned doors.

The wardrobes are decorated with the “La Jungle” wallpaper designed by Raoul Dufy.

The en-suite bathroom features blush-toned herringbone tiles, a rainfall shower, and a double sink with brass fittings.

In the second bedroom, the muted tones are paired with bold pink accents, while the en-suite bathroom features handmade Moroccan tiles, introducing a subtle variation in color and texture.

The apartment is listed for rent at Domus Nova.
