A new building surrounded by 30\u2019s buildings, the penthouse was bought off-plan with the agreement it would be left as a shell so he could determine his own internal layout. He gave it a European flavour, slightly art deco.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

An elegant, central colonnaded corridor with a coffered ceiling and American oak parquet floor runs full length to French doors opening onto an east facing terrace. <\/span>Different areas are wonderful at different times of day. Both urban and citified, a place of many moods, with doors open in summer, warm in winter.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There are two antique marble fireplaces in the sitting room.\u00a0 <\/span>Belgian sisal for the floors, armchairs in licorice-and-white striped fabric contrasting with white chenille upholstered chaises. <\/span>Panelled walls in the sitting room finished with crackle glaze paint are given extra gravitas by the addition of heavy plaster cornices<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Custom made wrought-iron doors open to a wide terrace on the city-view side with a Chinese water trough supported by a stone plinth and an inlaid marble table from India.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
