Painted white throughout by the previous owner, this apartment had been stripped of all of its original features. The brief was to redesign the entire apartment, including a new kitchen, to create a practical family space that felt comfortable, rich and with character. Guided by the building’s architecture, Max embellished the drawing room with sixteenth-century style panelling, dark painted floorboards and a corner chimney piece. The client was also keen to inject warmth and colour, which was achieved by layering richly coloured paint and wallpaper with sumptuous fabrics and a mix of antique and Max Rollitt Bespoke furniture.
This apartment designed by Max Rollitt has just the right amount of elegance and comfort and country charm. The colours in the kitchen are so delicious I would be quite happy spending hours in there cooking. Photos: Simon Brown.
