From richly decorative to coolly pared-back, London homes are always unexpected. Behind the front doors of the city`s ubiquitous terraces lies a wealth of design inspiration, while seemingly inhospitable buildings, whether converted gin distilleries, concrete new builds or former dairies, have been given fresh life thanks to the city`s famously creative inhabitants.

Over the years, multiple influences have inspired the capital`s design sensibility, including the relaxed elegance pioneered by Colefax and Fowler in the mid-twentieth century, the simple, softly modern rooms of Terence Conran a decade or two later and the restrained schemes of interior architects such as John Minshaw. More recently its interiors have favoured a return to a playful, loosened up look: blowsy florals, clashing colours, vibrant prints and plenty of frills and fringing.

London Interiors captures all of these influences and celebrates the cosmopolitan nature of a truly diverse city.
