Holland Park villas are bigger than the borough’s terraces. Many are semi detached and set well back. Rooms are broad, and the gardens behind are long.

That scale is a gift and a trap. A vast drawing room can feel empty. We zone it with furniture plans, layered lighting and rugs before choosing a finish.

Some villas are listed. Policy CD5 then asks for original features inside to be kept. Cornices, shutters and chimneypieces stay, and lost ones may return.

The garden side is where families actually live. Kitchens and family rooms face it, with doors that open wide. Storage is drawn so it never blocks the view.

Our closest interiors are a Kensington new build and a Chelsea townhouse. Both share the villa brief of large rooms, serious joinery and calm finishes.

How do you furnish a very large Holland Park drawing room?

We split it into zones, each with its own light.

A furniture plan comes first, finishes second.

What must stay inside a listed Holland Park villa?

Policy CD5 asks for original features inside to be kept.

Plasterwork, shutters and chimneypieces are typical.

We record them before a single line is drawn.

Can air conditioning go into a Holland Park villa?

Yes, with care over the outdoor units.

The borough judges them under Policy CD10.

Our own MEP team, NICEIC approved, designs and fits it.

Can a Holland Park garden room be part of the interior scheme?

Yes. We treat the garden side as the family’s everyday room.

Any new structure outside goes to the borough first.
