Set within one of London’s most iconic addresses, just opposite the Royal Courts of Justice, Strand Chambers is a boutique development that blends heritage with contemporary living. For the final reveal, we were appointed by Griffen and CBRE to design and stage the building’s crowning jewel: a three‑bedroom penthouse created with international high‑net‑worth buyers and affluent professionals in mind. As the last and most prestigious residence in the development, the penthouse demanded a design that was both unique and unforgettable.
Strand Chambers:
A Penthouse Reimagined for Iconic Living
Our History here Runs Deep
Our journey with Strand Chambers began before this penthouse, when we were commissioned to design and dress ten apartments across the building. Many of these homes were reserved within just two weeks of launch, a success that highlighted how powerful design can influence buyers. With that momentum behind us, the brief for the penthouse was clear: create something distinct from anything we had done before. As the final unit and the pinnacle of the building, it needed to feel truly special.

Crafting a Penthouse Like No Other
In the competitive prime London market, it’s the small details that can make the biggest difference. This penthouse at Strand Chambers was created to make an immediate impression, a place where buyers can instantly imagine themselves at home from the moment they walk in. By creating spaces that feel inviting, considered and one-of-a-kind, developers can help buyers connect emotionally with a property, often leading to quicker decisions and stronger offers.
“The impact of the turnkey approach is evident in several standout results at Strand: the first show apartment sold within just two weeks of its launch, and subsequent dressed units have been reserved after the very first viewing.”
Samuel Aston, Senior Director - Prime Central London New Developments, CBRE
The Art of Detail
What defines this penthouse is its richness of texture and finish. We brought together marble, bronze, burl wood, lacquer, and boucle to create an interior that feels tactile and immersive. These contrasts in materials are layered throughout the home, offering depth and interest at every turn, and inviting discovery beyond first impressions.
Alongside these finishes, artistry and decoration play a central role. Hand‑painted artworks act as focal points, sculptural lamps add drama and movement, and statement wallpapers give each room a unique personality. From the abstract daybed to the carefully upholstered stools, bold colour and pattern were used to ensure that every space feels distinctive, yet still connected as part of a cohesive story.
Bespoke by Design
Every room in this penthouse has its own focal point, anchored by bespoke pieces created to elevate the space and express its character. One bedroom features a striking canopy bed designed exclusively for the project, while another is defined by a scalloped headboard bed that introduces a softer, more playful edge. In the living area, sculptural stools upholstered in rich fabric add both function and artistry, reinforcing the home’s bold, layered character.
We also included a piece from our sister brand, Bazaar London, The De Walden Street Daybed. This striking creation, made in Britain, combines a graphic abstract print with luxurious sheepskin bolsters. Its low back and boxy silhouette give it a distinctive presence, ensuring it feels as much a work of art as it does a piece of furniture. Bold, customisable, and stylish, it is a lovely piece that perfectly embodies the spirit of this penthouse. Shop now if you want to make it yours!
This penthouse marks the final reveal at Strand Chambers and a fitting conclusion to our work within this landmark development. From the first apartments that sold within weeks of launch to this final home, the project has shown the impact of thoughtful, distinctive design.
