Home Tour : Central London Townhouse
Cheers to Friday and happy December! I’ve got a short & sweet home tour lined up for you today. The dark & moody palette in this beautifully designed central London Whistler townhome is the perfect way to kick off December and the winter season ahead. There is plenty of inspiration packed into this stunning home designed by Albion Nord. Click through for the tour…

Living Space I
This is the room that initially captured my attention and stopped me mid scroll… can you even believe those oak built-ins? Paired alongside modern art & furniture, this collected and curated grand room seems comfortable & approachable, despite its high design. I noted so many styling elements that felt inspiring.
Home Office
Next, I perused the home office or study. The captivating wine wall color certainly has the ability to pull you in. It’s a cozy space, with particularly interesting millwork. How about that nailhead looking detail? I also adored the marble fireplace and textural rug… but most of all- that chandelier.
Did you notice the feet on the drafting desk? How about the crystal table lamp? I also noted the modern treatment of the gas fireplace insert. Interesting, right?
Kitchen & Dining Room
There was only one featured image of the modern kitchen, but I would like to see more. From the cognac bar stools to the pendants and stone, this minimalistic space does seem quite functional.
The dining room has a modern, yet inviting feel. The roman clay walls, elegant chandelier, and extra long glossy table makes this room feel appropriate for a fancy feast. I also really love the art installation… hanging from the picture rails.
Living Space II
The second living space in the townhome is equally as pretty as the first. It’s filled with antiques, modern artwork, marble, custom upholstery, and plenty of optimal & inspiring styling moments.
I also screen grabbed the floral arrangements- all of which feel appropriate for the holiday season ahead, if you’re looking for ideas. Never underestimate the power of dried florals this time of year!
Media Room
The media room gave me the most inspiration, unsurprisingly. Since I’m working on my own basement renovation design plan, this space left me taking notes. From the u-shaped sectional to the oversized ottoman… this is my exact floor plan for the media viewing area. I also love the upholstered wall paneling, moody palette, and petite sconces.
The monochromatic kitchen area or wet bar also feels specifically on brand and reminiscent of my own project… graphic marble, painted cabinets, and collected glassware. It’s just a really lovely and functional looking space that got me excited.
Bedrooms
There were only two images of bedrooms within Albion Nord’s portfolio- both in green hues, and both simplistically beautiful.
Recreational Areas
Another room I’ve had on my mind lately… the home gym, and this one feels especially amazing! From the grid gallery wall to the modern fitness equipment, it’s an aspirational room. The wood tones are lovely.
FAQ
The first living space… it has such a beautiful library feel. I could probably spend hours in that room reading- and I just think it’s very tastefully designed. Kudos to Albion Nord!
The chandelier from the red office… that thing is incredible! I’d probably put it in my own home office, so I could admire it on the daily.
I do! Here’s how to choose a marble slab for your renovation, if you’re in the market for stone. Marble is a timeless material, in my opinion!
I hope you enjoyed this home tour, and I hope you have a wonderful month filled with holiday fun ahead! We’re still very much enjoying Asia, are soaking up plenty of sunshine, eating all the good food, and are eager to celebrate the holiday season ahead- just as soon as we get home!
