The Chamberlain, London

Fuller's · hotel · 63 bedrooms and corridors over five floors

A refresh of all 63 rooms and the corridors of the Chamberlain, on the Minories near the Tower of London. The building dates from around the 1920s, so the interiors give a quiet nod to art deco in the furniture, finishes and artwork. It isn't a period piece, but it clearly belongs to the building. We designed the headboards, case goods, bedside cabinets, window dressings and carpets for these rooms: Curtis Furniture made the walnut case goods with brass-capped legs, Ulster Carpets wove the corridor carpet to our design, and the headboards and curtains were made in the UK. Where rooms had baths, we fitted walk-in showers to suit city guests. 63 rooms and corridors in 10 weeks.
