We are really excited to reveal our Primrose Hill project with you. Set within a three-storey townhouse on Regent's Park Road in North London, our clients approached us after having discovered us via another of our projects. They wanted our help to create something that we don’t get asked for every day - a home that didn’t feel ‘overly interior designed’.
Discover the project
The house had already undergone a structural renovation with local architects Chassay & Last - who opened up the house into a double-height space, added a mezzanine above the kitchen, and installed a striking stone, blackened-steel and glass staircase. The next stage was to make the interiors feel like home.

The use of colour
We ran a thread of blue through the whole house, shifting in tone as it moves between spaces. On the top floor, a deep orangey-red sofa paired with bespoke Nest curtains brings a warm contrast.
Texture and materials
Where colour sets the mood, texture adds warmth. Limewash brings a gently weathered finish to the primary bedroom and bathroom, while beautifully tactile wood, stone and microcement was used throughout the house.
Bespoke furniture and textiles
We worked with long-time collaborator and maker, Adam Blencowe, to create several bespoke pieces of furniture and beautifully original textiles.
A bespoke kitchen island
The bespoke kitchen island was made from Esmeralda quartzite, with a painted wooden base. The island forms the heart of this space, designed to be both beautiful, and used every day.
A bespoke chest of drawers and vanity table - co-designed by Lucy Currell and Adam Blencowe and hand-crafted by Adam.
In the bedroom, a custom chest of drawers was cut on the grain, so that each drawer follows the natural rhythm of the wood.
These are complemented by textiles by Fealt - a collaboration between Adam Blencowe and Lucy Currell. Together, they design and handcraft felted panels, transforming them into wall hangings, rugs, textiles and upholstered furniture.

Creating spaces with longevity
At Studio Iro, we create interiors designed to be lived in for years to come. Every decision is guided by how a space will be used, how it will feel and how it will evolve over time. We work with natural materials, enduring craftsmanship and thoughtfully chosen pieces to create homes that feel warm, inviting and effortless to live in.
We favour sustainable materials, timeless design and bespoke furniture that's made to last, creating homes that continue to reveal new details and grow richer with time.
If you'd like to discuss an upcoming project, we'd love to hear from you.
