Inspired by our recent interview with botanical stylist Yasuyo Harvey, weve selected six alternative wall finishes, from homes currently on the market, to inspire your interiors.
Natural Clay: Clay House, London N19
This north London home is named Clay House due to the many layers of natural clay plaster that have been applied to the walls and ceilings, using a Japanese technique called Arakabe. The result is a beautifully textured and atmospheric interior. Read more on the use of alternative wall finishes from the Clay House architect Simon Astridge here.
Exposed Brick: St John Street, London EC1
The exposed brick walls of this extraordinary apartment are testimony to the buildings industrial past. By revealing the original brick, along with the high ceilings and succession of concrete pillars along the centre of the space, the apartment celebrates the original fabric of the building with great honesty.
Douglas Fir Cladding: Minerva Street, London E2
Douglas Fir joinery is used throughout this warehouse apartment, creating a beautifully-crafted, peaceful interior. In the dining area on the top floor the wood covers the walls and the floor, making it a light and uplifting space.
Chalkboard Paint: Montague Road, London E8
This period property in London Fields has been redesigned by architect David Mikhail to create light, voluminous living spaces. An area of wall in the main living room has been finished with chalkboard paint to create a fun intervention.
Blockwork: Culford Mews, London N1
This live/work mews house has been built from multi-coloured blocks, arranged in a pattern which has been left exposed throughout. The colours and textures of the blocks have become a key feature of the interior design.
Wood Panelling: The Lubetkin Penthouse, Highpoint II, London N6
Designed by esteemed Modernist Berthold Lubetkin, this Highpoint penthouse is a celebration of materials and space. The walls of the main living area are panelled with pine, and illuminated by the full-height window which runs the length of the room.
