NLSA is proud to showcase a new retail concept for the world-renowned luxury fashion brand Temperley London. In close collaboration with the founder and creative powerhouse, Alice Temperley MBE who founded her eponymous fashion label Temperley London in 2000, NLSA has developed a timeless yet contemporary interior that mixes a bohemian flair for colour and pattern with the elegance and tradition of a country house. The new UK flagship occupies over 300 sqm of enviable retail space in the heart of Chelsea close to the prestigious Sloane Square.

 Being bold with your home’s layout and your material choices can profoundly enhance both the aesthetic appeal and functionality of your living space. At Lion House in Fulham, we embarked on a daring renovation project that reimagined the traditional design of a South-West London home to unlock its full potential. The NLS studio’s vision was to free up space and flood the house with daylight. In many Fulham homes, you find the staircase directly in front of you as you walk through the front door. With a wall often separating the hallway from the living space to the side, the result is a cramped and shadowy entrance hall. This creates an uninviting first impression and an impractical use of space. For this residential project, our clients trusted us in taking a bold approach by moving the staircase to the centre of the floor plan. Beyond simply providing an opportunity to make a unique architectural feature out of the stairs, this strategic shift offered several transformative benefits, improving spatial dynamics and creating a more inviting, light-filled environment.

Embarking on our recently completed project for The Rug Company, a new flagship showroom in Chelsea Harbour, our NLS studio team were challenged to adopt a strategic approach to bespoke interior architecture and design. Guided by a respect for the brand’s heritage alongside a vision for its future, we set out to create a space that would not only showcase the brand’s exquisite rugs but also elevate the entire retail experience. Our process was thorough and immersive, rooted in securing a comprehensive understanding of the retail landscape and The Rug Company’s unique identity.
