Fashion Designer Roksanda Ilinčić Curates The Prettiest Penthouses In London

Roksanda Ilinčić is known for giving seriously cool catwalk looks, and now she’s turned her talented hand to interior design.

The designer has beautifully offered her own take on The Penthouse at Gasholders London, specially curating interiors and artwork. The penthouses are apart of a landmark residence, built within a refurbished triplet of Grade II-listed, cast-iron gasholder guide frames in the heart of London’s King’s Cross.

Working with the three-bedroom duplex penthouse, Roksanda had the opportunity to go to town on the aesthetics and she did just that. As one would expect, there’s an elegant amalgamation of furniture, art, ceramics, books and objet d'art, creating a contemporary and exquisitely stylish narrative between rooms.

Roksanda has primarily focussed on women makers, both established and emerging. The space features murals, artwork, and textiles by Caroline Denervaud which act as a beautiful backdrop to the furniture by Lina Bo Bardi and Charlotte Perriand. Expect objects and ceramics by Australian ceramicist Alana Wilson, Berlin-based potter Christine Roland and Londoner Annette Lantsoght.

Postmodern and Mid-century accents include  a coat rack from the Netherlands, a dining table by Angelo Mangiarotti and Pierre Jeanneret chairs from the 1950s with a Francois Châtain Floor Lamp.
