Holland Park, London

A mid-century house in the West London neighbourhood of Holland Park, that had been the client’s childhood home. Lonika was tasked with making the house more comfortable, more contemporary and more functional, breathing new life into the house whilst still preserving its history. Alongside the structural changes, Lonika focused on bringing in colour. Each room is now filled with colour and decorative objects that have meaning and family connection.

Queen's Park, London

Lonika wanted to recapture the original charm of this railway worker's cottage and designed bespoke joinery throughout. She set about combining antique pieces, fabrics and strong colours. The palette is warm and cheerful, offset by neutral tones on the floors and walls. Though the cottage was mostly pulled together over a six-month period, it has the layered look of an interior that has been added to slowly over a number of years.

Hampstead Apartment, London

A former Artist’s studio, this dated first floor apartment was reconfigured to create a unique London pied-à-terre. An artist herself, the client already owned some pieces that she was keen to incorporate, and these formed the basis of the schemes.  Focusing on a warm, earthy palette created the perfect backdrop for the existing artworks, sourced antiques and furnishings.
