Smith Street

Of every stripe
Smith Street, a three-bedroom apartment a minute’s walk from King’s Road, is full of zigzags, stripes and floral flourishes. The front door leads to the open-plan sitting room to the right, which has a muted blue colour scheme and a pair of contemporary lamps and armchairs. There are eye-catching olive-green cabinets in the kitchen, to the left, and straight ahead is the dining room. It has grey-and-white striped walls, a street-facing sash window and a wooden table for six.

The twin bedroom and its ensuite are straight ahead, and to the left of the entrance is a staircase to the floor above. On the left is the bathroom, which has a roll-top bath and walk-in shower, and right are the other two bedrooms. The double bedroom has cream walls and zigzag lampshades, while the master bedroom has stylised floral curtains and a cool, natural feel.
