‘The owners also have a house in the country,’ says Paolo.

When interior designer Paolo Moschino first saw his clients’ London penthouse apartment, he instantly knew how to revamp the interior. ‘When you see a property, it will tell you what to do with it,’ he says. ‘It all depends on how the light falls in the space. The property developer who built this apartment had originally covered it in bright white paint. What was needed was a softer aesthetic. This was also what my clients wanted as they already had a house in the country and wanted this city apartment to be like a holiday home – a home from home.’
