Elegant Open-Plan Living in a Chelsea Apartment

This beautiful open plan interior design project is located in the heart of Chelsea, London. Designed for a property developer, the goal was to maximise the space and natural light while giving the apartment a sophisticated, turn-key appeal. The living, dining and kitchen areas flow seamlessly, creating a practical and stylish layout ideal for modern city living.

The Design Board

Elegant Open-Plan Living Moodboard

We opted for soft curves and neutral tones, layering tactile elements such as the boucle sofa, matte ceramics, and linen roman blinds to create a sense of comfort and calm. The dining area is compact yet stylish, with a rounded pedestal table and boucle-upholstered chairs positioned to maximise the window view. Rich wooden floors bring warmth to the scheme, balanced by refined panelled walls and contemporary accents like the marble-effect TV unit.

Why Open Plan Interior Design Works Here

An open plan interior brings flexibility to compact London apartments, offering a sense of openness and fluidity that appeals to both investors and homebuyers.

From layout to lighting, every detail was tailored to ensure this compact space feels luxurious, cohesive, and ready for modern city living. This space is a great example of how layout and furnishing choices can dramatically influence how a room feels expansive, light-filled and luxurious.
