Two-Bedroom Apartment For-Sale | Allen House, 8 Allen Street, Kensington, London W8 6BH | Knight Frank

Bringing together eclectic charm and touches of playfulness was the brief for 'The Drayson Residence', a spacious 883 sqft two-bedroom apartment situated on the second floor of Allen House. Textured wallpaper, clashing yet complimentary patterns, colourful artwork and woven bowls hung as decorative items in the bedroom reflect an inviting aesthetic layered with rich textures and fabrics. The colour palette of calming creams, muted greens and burgundy complete the chic living space. A curved sofa in Kelby Crema textured weave fabric by ROMO in the living room is a nod to contemporary living, whereas the wrought iron and metal detailing in the dining table, overhead chandelier and side tables are references to the building's original Edwardian exterior architecture.
