BATTERSEA HOUSE

The creation of a contemporary London home without disturbing the building's Victorian history or context.

The client knew he wanted a fairly contemporary approach, and he had started working on joining the two buildings together with architects Eldridge Smerin,” explains interior designer Rose Uniacke. “I came in on the project after the plans had been drawn up, and they’d done a really nice job, but my thought was, Let’s do more.” 

Rose's approach to this interior goes beyond delivering a captivating curation of furniture, textiles and accessories. Rose's "more" included gutting then integrating the two buildings to create a unified living space for the client and his family. This approach lead to the creation of a contemporary London home without disturbing the building's Victorian history or context.
