- Skeel LibraryPrime property located in Hampstead which used to function as a library for the womens college. I researched Caroline Skeel and her work in botanics which then fueled my take on a quintessentially british librarian home. This project has won numerous awards including Best Show Home Interiors at What House and Best London and UK Show Home.

Mount Anvil
Skeel Library is part of the very
popular Hampstead Manor scheme
from Mount Anvil. Built in 1903,
the Grade II listed Edwardian
Baroque-style library of 5,200ft² has
been converted brilliantly into a
four-bedroom home.
It would have been so easy to get
this project horribly wrong, but Mount
Anvil says that “walking into this
home is an adventure” and the final
result by Suna Interior Design is an
intertwining of the original restored
library features into a home.
The interior design complements
the building’s architecture perfectly.
In the impressive 40ft reception room
Suna has not been afraid to use
deep jewel colours throughout the
apartments, in particular in the main
reception room where emerald
greens and ruby-shade sofas gleam
and glow above deep parquet
flooring. The amazing high ceiling
with the mezzanine floor above
creates a magnificent but also very
functional space. Deep oyster
shades have been used for the chairs
in in the dining room.
All this richness is soothed by a
reading room, with clever touches
such as using beautiful wallpaper
framed by panelling, which
enhances the use of warm amber
tones flowing through the room. The
bedrooms are mini masterpieces in
themselves and the cool decor of
the guest suite is comfortable,
attractive and very homely. This is
where your guests can stay, enjoy
and never go home.
Skeel Library sold for £6.5m within
days of launch, proving that attention
to detail and a desire to do things
differently really pays dividends.T
