Interior finishes in South Kensington

Work in South Kensington — postcode SW7 3 — comes overwhelmingly through proportioned Georgian brick townhouses. White-stucco garden squares — Onslow, Pelham, Thurloe. We layer period mansion flats with high ceilings and full cornice detail briefs alongside as they arise. Local property values sit in the very high tier (median around £3200k), and our client mix here is overwhelmingly designer- and architect-led — we're brought onto the shortlist at spec stage rather than pitching cold. Because this is a dense listed-building conservation area, our specifications here lean vapour-permeable and reversible — natural limewash, hand-brushed high-end paint, and clay-plaster substrates. Anything that would trap moisture behind period joinery gets refused at survey. Roads we're most often on: Onslow Square, Pelham Crescent, Thurloe Square. Nearest arterial addresses in the same market: Chelsea, Kensington, Knightsbridge.

What we specify for South Kensington clients

Microcement in this area

Seamless microcement — 2 mm mineral coating over prepared substrate — is our workhorse for continuous open-plan floors, kitchen splashbacks and fully-tanked wet-rooms. Colour-matched to the joinery, sealed to hospitality-grade wear rating.

Venetian plaster feature walls

Authentic slaked-lime marmorino and stucco veneziano, applied in three or more thin coats and burnished to a marble-like sheen. Sample boards produced against your designer's schedule before we start on site.

High-end paint schedules

Full-house schedules in Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Paint & Paper Library, Edward Bulmer and Bauwerk — brushed by hand on walls, sprayed on joinery. 8–14 colour schedules the norm on a whole-house brief.
