Four-bedroom Apartment, Clarges Mayfair, London, UK

With its enviable position in Mayfair, this recently finished development by award-winning architects Squire & Partners stands out for its views over Buckingham Palace and Green Park. The building sits comfortably alongside landmarks such as The Ritz by incorporating the traditional Portland stone cladding seen in this area with more modern detail. Martin Kemp Design then reflected Mayfair’s illustrious artisanal history in the interiors, pairing black onyx, Nettuno marble, Tanganika timber and dark-stained oak with hand-woven carpets in silk and wool, nickel-polished hardware and Art Deco doors. Light-sculpture specialist Haberdashery created an installation for the quadruple-height grand entrance hall, and artists made bespoke pieces for individual residences. In this 3,919-sq-ft, four-bedroom apartment, there are one-of-a-kind furnishings such as amid-century modern tessellated console table. Residents have around-the-clock concierge services and access to a private spa with a colonnade-lined pool, sauna, steam room and hydrotherapy pool.
