A Contemporary Open-Plan Living Room in North London
This expansive open-plan living space in North London was designed under our Ultimate Package for a client seeking a home that could hold its own for everyday life and sophisticated entertaining without the two ever feeling at odds. Every element was selected as part of a considered whole rather than assembled independently.
The Design Board
The scheme was built around a neutral palette with accents of rich green and subtle gold, a combination that reads as both calm and quietly opulent. Plush grey sofas form the centrepiece of the seating arrangement, complemented by deep green velvet armchairs and ottomans that introduce colour and tactile depth without disrupting the overall serenity of the room.
Large windows and a skylight were central to the layout strategy, maximising natural daylight throughout the space and creating an ongoing connection with the outdoors. The room benefits considerably from this decision, feeling open and dynamic across different times of day.
Bespoke TV Unit and Joinery
The bespoke TV unit is one of the room’s defining features. Custom-built to the exact dimensions of the wall, it is flanked by integrated shelving with backlighting that draws attention to curated decorative items while providing a considered backdrop for the television. The unit makes the entertainment area feel intentional rather than incidental.
Flooring, Lighting and Finishing Details
Herringbone flooring in natural wood tones runs throughout, adding visual rhythm and a sense of continuity across the open floor plate. A blend of sleek chandeliers and layered table lamps creates warmth and depth in the evenings, transitioning the room from a bright, daylit space to something more intimate after dark. Green potted plants and considered decorative pieces complete the scheme, bringing a lived-in quality to what might otherwise feel too pristine.
