Located on Vicarage Gate, a quiet street a short walk from Kensington Gardens, is this beautiful two-bedroom mid-century apartment. Built in 1951, the building named Festival House and drew its overarching aesthetic, as well as its name, from the hugely influential Festival of Britain, held on London's Southbank in the summer of 1951. This apartment is located on the fourth floor and has been sensitively modernised by the current owner with the help of architect Tom Rowland; together they have preserved the original mid-century details to emphasise a sense of calm throughout. 'Marmoreal' terrazzo fittings by Max Lamb have been introduced to add splashes of colour against the more traditional materials and fixtures, which include oak parquet floorboards and Crittall windows.
